by Kristina Mulligan In my life, I’ve read a lot of books. I’ve read lots of books because I’m nosy. Honestly. I want to know everything about anything and, as a mother, I want to teach my son everything, too. Which is why I’ve been so frustrated when it comes to the lack of resources […]
I remember the neonatologist coming into my room, but the rest is a little fuzzy. He gave percentages, talked about feeding tubes, and the NICU. He was very matter of fact and even somber with his tone. He emphasized that the longer I could keep my babies inside, the better the chances they had on […]
Cold and flu season is here and for parents of preemies, this season can be hugely terrifying. Many refer to this time of year as a “lockdown” time when we do all we can to keep our preemie away from germs in order to keep them healthy. We asked our preemie parent mentors […]

Memories. This time of year is filled with memories. Memories of holiday celebrations as a child. Memories as a teenager. Memories of my husband’s and my first years as a married couple before children. Memories of our children and their first holidays. This time of year has always been my favorite season. There is a […]
When our twin boys were born at 24 weeks gestation, we knew we had a long road ahead of us. As each day passed, we learned more and more about the NICU and that our stay would be much more complicated than just watching our baby grow. While it is everyone’s hope that their child’s […]
Graham’s Foundation parent mentor, Tracy, shares the first of her two part post. Be sure to read the second part of her post. When I was admitted to the hospital at 23 weeks and 5 days into my pregnancy, the nurse asked me if I had ever heard of preeclampsia. I looked at him with […]
As I wait for my husband to get home from a 10 day travel work trip, I am exhausted and the house is a mess. I am in the middle of potty training my son and my daughter is up to her eyeballs in crafts…all…over…the…house. She turned five in April and is headed to Kindergarten […]
