Parenting after a Loss

NICU Reunion

We are going to go.  LO spent 3 weeks there and despite being the biggest and oldest gestationally, was the most critical for the first few days.  I am going to be an emotional mess..  Fortunately, another couple that we got to know from NICU is also going to be there so we get to see their 30 week little man, too.

SIgh.  Hold me.

  • Oh it is going to be great!  Emotional yes but so happy too. I loved our "preemie picnic every year when I was an NICU nurse.  It is so rewarding for staff and so fun for families to show off their LOs. ((Hugs)) I bet you'll have a great time!

    Aw I think it will be great to see how far those babies have come! Isaac is my fave though so I'm jealous that other people get to swoon over him.
