My NICU Graduate's Journey
My Lainey was born 6 weeks early in Nashville! We live in Huntsville so we had to stay at Vanderbilt for a week. We were approved to relocate her to Huntsville hospital and she was there for another week. She made progress everyday with her breathing and eating, and eventually we were able to bring her home after 2 weeks in the NICU.

What makes you proud of your NICU graduate?
She has worked so hard to grow and eat and being a premie hasn’t slowed her down one bit! She’s 3 months old now and 9 pounds and we are so grateful for her and how strong she is.
