More NICU Resources

Though I have nearly a year's worth of experience I am using to talk on the topics I have, I didn't wake up one morning and know everything. I did exactly what I am encouraging you to do, and what likely brought you to this website in the first place, I scoured the web for any and everything I could find to help me feel less alone, more prepared, and ready to face what was to come. Here are some of the resources I found that helped guide me through my time in the NICU!
