What the NICU Taught Me

Reflecting on my experience in the NICU, I share valuable lessons learned during having a premie in the NICU. In honor of NICU Awareness Month, I wanted to highlight what it takes to survive a stay in the NICU. From caring for a premature baby to navigating the emotional rollercoaster, this video sheds light on the challenges and triumphs of the NICU journey.
