Reader Reviews
My son was born seven weeks early and although we knew there was a possibility of this we were not prepared for some of the unique situations that we experienced. This book could be our story for how accurately it describes what happens from birth to the NICU. Five months later I still reference it. If you think you might have your baby early buy this now!
