“The NICU(Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) isn’t day to day. It’s minute to minute, shift to shift, moment to moment,” says Dr. Terri. Most parents plan for a healthy baby-not a premature baby or a sick baby. So when it happens, parents are often shocked, confused and frightened. In this episode, Dr. Candice talks with Neonatologist, Dr. Terri to introduce, prepare, and navigate expecting parents through the NICU journey.

This episode covers:

-Dr. Terri’s upcoming book, Early Arrival

-H.O.P.E., encouragement for NICU parents

-Tour of the NICU

-Health disparities in premature births and infant mortality

-Importance of follow-up

-Tons of resources for parents

Thank You, Dr. Terri Major-Kincade!
