My NICU Graduate's Journey
Hi! I’m Revna, I was supposed to be due August 30 but I was so excited to see everything I decided that June 28 was my day. My mommy had preeclampsia so I was a little uncomfortable anyways; but apparently that was too early and everyone was scared. I had to spend 2 whole months in the NICU but that’s ok, mommy said that her and daddy and all the nurses were helping me and holding me. When I was born I was 3lbs 3 oz and 15.5 in, I was so small I could fit in my daddy’s hands. I still love seeing everything and exploring, mommy always calls me curious but I don’t know what that means. Well, that’s everything!!! Buh bye!

What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?
This lil girl is the light of my life! She is so curious and has no fear which terrifies me! I’m so happy she loves life, I do wish she had patience but who am I kidding…I don’t even have patience. She doesn’t say too much but I’m excited for the day she decides to tell me everything.
