Weather the Storm with My Top 10 NICU Quotes

Top 10 Quotes Moms and Dads Need to Hear While in the NICU

For most parents having your new baby in the NICU was not in the “Birth Plan”. These quotes can help every parent, grandparent and siblings with the Journey that is the NICU! Ive said it before and I’ll say it again the NICU is a “Different World”. One many don’t experience. Having a Term Newborn, a Preemie or even a MicroPreemie in the NICU is never a parents wish nor would I or any parent wish this experience on anyone else. On the other side Gratefulness goes hand and hand with the NICU experience.
