As we say goodbye to another #worldprematurityday & the ‘celebrations’ we applaud every parent who takes a deep breath, fights the fright, resists the urge for flight and walks this corridor to where love lives @SNUGNeonatal @swneonatal @sensorybegin @Blisscharity @alrattenbury

Neonatal families often think the team won’t remember them years later- but we do! Thank you to every family who has taken a moment to send in updates on how you’re doing now - it means a lot! #WorldPrematurityDay

Loving the increased conversation about the importance of kangaroo care. We have worked really hard in Scotland on a QI toolkit supporting kangaroo care in the neonatal unit😍

On #WorldPrematurityDay let us celebrate all children born prematurely & raise awareness of a journey we know can last long after coming home from hospital.

We continue in our mission to make the world a better place for children born prematurely and their families after NICU.

Today is #worldprematurityday & thanks to our wonderful NHS and ⁦@Blisscharity⁩ support my Charlie born at 23 weeks & weighing just 455g is now a thriving 14 year old at mainstream school and doing more than ever could have been expected. ❤️

[Canadian Premature Babies Foundation @canadianpreemie]

30,000 babies are born preterm in Canada. Preemies may face a higher risk of developing short- and long-term health challenges.PretermBirth can also bring considerable emotional consequences to families and may cause economic implications for families and public-sector services.

[Gillian Bowker @BowkerGillian]

On #worldprematurityday22 the WHO launch their recommendations for care of the preterm/low birth weight infant. Kangaroo mother care as the number one recommendation for preventative/promotive care. Closeness and connection is key to improving outcomes https://t.co/NDDhkqQwKh
