My NICU Graduate's JourneyRaina was born on June 19 at 26w . She weighed 2pounds 2oz . We spent 4 months in the NICU where we were supported by the amazing NICU team from doctors, family support team, lactation, spiritual care, OT, PT, social work and her amazing nurses who lifted me up and taught me to be the brave mom I am now.
What makes you proud of you NICU graduate?Raina is a fighter and as we do all of her follow ups she amazes me with how well she is doing. She is very friends and loves to smile. She surpasses or hits all her milestones on her own time. I’m grateful that I get to witness her growth and see what a miracle she is!
