PICU vs NICU

You all probably already know this, but I asked why they had her in the PICU instead of the NICU. They said it's because she had already been discharged from the NICU and had been out in the world exposed to whats out there.  I thought that was interesting.

    We spent a week in PICU after being discharged from NICU. We had been home a few days and realized his jaundice was severely back (long story he had many tests done as it was crazy high) so brought him back assuming he'd go in NICU. TBH I liked the change, had a private room for me and LO and a bed for me to stay there with him. Much cozier than the NICU.

    It was nice to have our own room. Our NICU didn't have private rooms, and none of the chairs were really comfy.  In her PICU room I had a rocking chair and a cushioned chair (which was my bed).
