My Journey through NICU

A bit of background about myself. I gave birth to a 25 weeker. I have been in NICU for 3 weeks and 3 days and we are on the rollercoaster ride.

I notice when I speak to people they always refer to the end goal which is baby will be out and everything will be fine. I get what they are trying to do However I'm currently in the present dealing with day to day issues.

I just want to create a thread where post and present NICU parents can share their experience and coping mechanisms they used.

(I know there are lots of social media forums however I don't have any other social media accounts)

Hi all,
If anyone is still there, Baby A was discharged 2 weeks ago and is doing very well. She was discharged weighing 6lbs 4oz.
Thank you for all of your support and well wishes.

Now that I have had time to settle down, I have realised how traumatic the whole situation was. But I'm ok just glad this little girl made it home.
