"Your Premature Baby and Child balances both informational and emotional needs of mothers and fathers of preterm children. I have no doubt this book is going to become an excellent resource. Parents will refer to it often during their preemie's childhood."
Jacinto A. Hernández, M.D.,
Professor of Pediatrics, Neonatology Section, University of Colorado School of Medicine

Your Premature Baby and Child is a unique, comprehensive, and empowering handbook that provides detailed information for "preemie parents" after their infants are discharged from the NICU. Written by experienced preemie mothers and medical professionals, this book presents information in easy-to-understand language and in a warm and reassuring voice that can only come from those who understand.
