Nicu quotes

It’s not uncommon in our society today to use language like “miraculous” and “overcomer” to only honor the babies that graduate and come home from the NICU.

Sometimes NICU babies can labeled as “fussy” or hard to console. It can be so hard to hear their little voices crying out. But if we stop, pause, truly listen and just be a…

Sad stuff, sorry. Now, NOT EVERYONE feels this way, but those that do, you are not alone. . . . . . . . . . #borntoosoon #sarahzellnerquotes #nicujourney #miraclebaby #tinywarrior #preemiemom #ptsd #nicuparent #nicudad #traumaticbirth #bravesoul #birthtrauma #nicumama #preemietwins #nicuwarrior #tinybutmighty #prematurebaby #fightlikeapreemie #nicustrong #preemiemama #lifeafternicu #nicubaby #prematurity #neonatal #nicu #micropreemie #preemie #preemiestrong #preemiebaby #preemiehood
