Also included in the NICU eBook are the normal, expected responses to a sudden challenge or life changing event as well as suggestions for getting through this challenging time to be available and support your newborn.

Benefit - It's a Short Resource

The Complimentary resource is a fairly short eBook (25 pages). The entire book can be read over a brief period of time (less than 30 minutes), over scattered shorter time intervals, or used as a reference when needed.

Our Story

The eBook was created based on my experiences with my youngest daughter as a resource that I would have liked to have at the time when we were NICU Parents.

You can read more about our story on our website in an article that I wrote several years ago: Observing Mother’s Day with Renewed Appreciation.
