Episode 57 | A NICU stay for micro preemie twins born at 23 weeks
Episode Description
Katie, Certified Child Life Specialist interviews Amanda, mom to two micro preemie twins born at 23 weeks.
Amanda and her husband met at Baylor University and had a normal pregnancy and delivery with their first son. Their second go at getting pregnant was not as easy and included fertility treatments, bed rest and an traumatic, emergent c-section at 23 weeks.
She describes how:
*Her faith was instrumental for getting through their experience
*Detailed preparation from NICU team before hand helped her understand what was happening
*Creating community within the NICU setting (with both families and staff) was necessary for getting through.
