There are so many questions and concerns that come up for NICU parents, but in my experience, once your infant is stabilized, THE most common question on a parent’s mind is, when will my baby be able to come home?
In this episode, we break it down and answer that question with some common diagnoses of infants in the NICU including extremely preterm infants, very preterm infants, moderately preterm infants, late preterm infants, as well as common conditions for term infants admitted to the NICU including hypoglycemia, respiratory distress, hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE), and post-surgical cases.
We are here to help you during your baby’s NICU journey, but each baby and their circumstances are unique, so always stay involved with your baby’s care team and continue to ask questions about their plan of care.
