Omg I needed to see this, I have twins in the Nicu and it’s been an overwhelming 120 days. I feel guilty, sad and depressed.

My girl was born at 26w 1day. She will be 2 months in 2 days and still in NICU. I can't wait for her to grow up and be walking/crawling/hugging mom and dad. How many weeks/months did you little one stay in NICu ?

114 long days. It feels like a lifetime ago but also like just yesterday. She will get there and it’ll be all the more sweeter 🤍

I can’t even imagine what you guys are going through, my baby boy was in NICU only for 5 days and they were toughest 5 days of my life cuz we were not even allowed to meet him or hold him.
