I was a premie (10 weeks early) and NICU baby too. Almost thirty years later, my parents still talk about their time in the hospital with me.

I’m so glad she’s now thriving. This makes me wish I was at a stage to donate breast milk. Nursing was one of the favorite things I’ve done in my life. Many blessings to you and your beautiful family, Kate!!

We were born at 30 weeks and all stayed there for a few weeks and as one of us would make progress, my parents would have to balance time between my sisters who got to go home early and then myself who was still in the NICU (we’re quadruplets). My parents were (and are) saints! My sister is now a NICU nurse in the same NICU we were in, coming full circle. Glad Birdie is doing well! 🙂

Our daughter only needed to be there for monitoring for 30 hours after being born with a severe birth defect (mostly fine, mostly thriving now), but I’ll never remember saying goodbye and giving the most sincere hug of gratitude to the doctor who sent us on our way. I’ll always have a special place in my heart for that doctor.
