Premature Babies Development Tips

Preemie babies are extra special. They need just as much love, affection and attention as full-term babies, and even greater care. Premature babies have their own set of needs and challenges, and it’s our goal to prepare you for what to expect during the first few months of your preemie’s life.

If you’re the parent of a premature baby, it’s normal to feel scared and overwhelmed. Caring for a preemie is quite a responsibility, especially when it happens unexpectedly! They have a higher likelihood of feeding problems, have greater difficulties sleeping and can be more anxious than full-term babies. Along with your doctor’s advice and the incredible technology in the neo-natal intensive care unit (NICU), the resources found here will help you navigate the first year of parenting a preemie.
