Preemie Parents and PTSD

Preemie Parents and PTSD

By Graham's Foundation on July 31, 2017

Having a premature infant in the NICU is a traumatic event, so it probably comes as no surprise that researchers have confirmed that parents of preemies are at risk for developing post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). What these parents experience is more than depression, and complicating matters is the fact that the symptoms of PTSD can emerge […]

Preemie Parents: Let Go of Guilt

Preemie Parents: Let Go of Guilt

By Graham's Foundation on March 17, 2017

That all parents feel some degree of guilt at one point or another in their children’s lives is simply a truism. Guilt can actually be a sign that moms and dads care deeply about getting it right and want their children’s lives to be perfect from the very start. But while feelings of guilt can […]

Preeclampsia and prematurity

Preeclampsia and prematurity

By Featured Parent on September 17, 2015

Today’s guest post is by Sheree. Three am is the loneliest hour for most of the world. It’s too late to call it bedtime, and too early to be morning. There is nothing but still darkness among the moonlight and even crickets catch up on sleep. For others though, it’s an exhausting hour spent feeding […]

Working around a preemie

By Featured Parent on August 6, 2015

Today’s guest author, Missie, can be followed on her personal blog. Should I work full time, doing a job I love or should I stay home and care for my high-needs preemie, whom I love even more? I don’t know what the right answer is to this question. I can tell you it’s one I’ve […]

It’s okay to take a break

By Laura Martin on August 3, 2015

Giving birth at 24 week gestation was completely unexpected. Our boys were immediately taken to the NICU after birth and I was not able to see them until the following day. Because they were in the NICU, I assumed we had to be with them every waking moment. Early in our NICU stay, I felt […]

Working while in the NICU

By Laura Martin on July 10, 2015

Finding out we were expecting fraternal twins was a huge surprise. At the time, I was team teaching middle school and high chorus with my husband, Scott. Our boys were due in the middle of February – one of the busiest times in our school year with performances of the upper school musical and performance […]

Parenting in the NICU

Parenting in the NICU

By Laura Martin on April 20, 2015

Finding ourselves in the NICU is not the way we envisioned parenting. We saw the days after giving birth filled with hugs and kisses, warm blankets and fuzzy teddy bears, a beautiful nursery and adorable clothes. We never envisioned our child with tubes and wires, a room filled with loud beeps and the roaring sound […]

Preemie Blogger Emily: It's All My Fault!

Preemie Blogger Emily: It’s All My Fault!

By Emily Raymond on April 5, 2014

When my first preemie debuted at 34 weeks after a bout with preeclampsia, I wondered why it happened to me. I didn’t have any of the risk factors. I didn’t have a family history of preeclampsia. Sometimes I wonder if I could have done things differently – exercised less, eaten more protein, etc. – would […]

Today, Jenn shares the story of the birth and NICU journey of her 29-weeker: This was my third pregnancy, so I knew the drill. Every appointment had gone […]

Preemie Parents Share: Antonia’s Story

By Featured Parent on April 15, 2013

Today, we wanted to share Antonia’s story – she reached out to us to tell us her story of birthing at home at 32 weeks and everything that followed as her daughter Freya worked hard to come home. If you’d like to share your family’s prematurity story along with a photo, please email christa@grahamsfoundation.org. I […]
