Nice one, mate.
I was born 10 weeks /premature/ 2 pds 7oz. Had to be recessitated multiple times.
Is that why I'm on this board?

OP at 8 weeks here, the longer the weeks, the more fucked you are. At this point, it's just science.

I guess we were doomed to autism from the start.
>>34199847
And now that you mention it I've always been retarded with simple procedural things and especially with math. I have a hard time adding and subtracting.
Obviously being premature stunted my social skills as well, but it doesn't seem to have affected my verbal intelligence or reading ability.

The cut off of normality is 33/38 weeks
Grats m8, made it by a hair.

>this feel
Same, except I am fucked from all angles, my guy. I am unironically shit at everything, even motor skills and shitty bone structure/teeth,
>spent first 2 weeks of my life in an incubator or whatever you call those life support things for newborn babies that can't breathe right
>dad said that's probably why im so skinny and have a submissive posture
I wanna believe that it's just all the san fran hippie shit he reads talking
I was a month early, but that's about it

I feel you brother. I definitely have an oblong head from it and was chronically underweight growing up. I've finally gotten to a normal weight from intensive weight lifting.
The worst thing is people making fun of you for your motor skills or inability to process instructions. My boss the other day told me "you're the dumbest smart guy I know" thanks I guess...
You can't exactly go around telling people your brain is fucked from being premature. My mom always told people I was premature and I think did too much for me growing up because she thought I couldn't handle it or needed special treatment. Bless her heart but it didn't help me learn simple life skills like cooking and cleaning.
There's a strange kind of peace I feel that it isn't my fault for being this way, but at the same time

MY BRO, all of this.
Sounds like you're on a good path though, I still got a ton of work to do.

Tfw when you don't have an "excuse" and presume life on obscure mode
10 weeks premie checking in, feels bad man
I was 3 and half months premature, they thought I had many different problems but I'm fine now
>>34199560

>24 weeks
>frail and retarded
Shit mayne, he is literally going to be frail and retarded.
Below 33 weeks you get a robot, just think what you get at 24.
I was born with 6 months and I was top of my class on every school I went. I do live in a poor country though.
Does that mean if I had been born with 9 months I could've been the next Tesla?
