More About This Book

Overview

The number of premature births in the United States has risen dramatically in recent years, with premature birth now designated the #1 obstetrics problem in the United States-affecting some 12 percent of all births. Caught up in these births-where a mother's arms and joy are replaced by incubators and cautious hope-are the parents, whose strength and emotional stability may understandably wane in the face of the challenges and fears created by the early birth.

What People Are Saying

Susan Hegarty

"I was an obstetrical nurse for 12 years and I learned more about newborn parenting from this book than any experience I had on the job. The author expertly interweaves use of psychotherapeutic techniques useful throughout life, not just in crises situations. This book is a must read for anyone involved in the care and nurturing of a preterm infant. I would also recommend this book as an optional text for any nursing student considering a career in neonatal nursing."

    This book was soooooo HELPFUL to me

    This book really helped me understand what my baby was going through and how I could help her, what I could expect and how our future would be. I believe that all hospitals should give a copy of this to new mothers of premies. It will really help set them at ease with thier new little bundles of happiness.

    Real help for mothers of preemies

    I am the mother of a premature little boy. I felt so helpless and alone when all the other mothers with perfectly healthy babies would get together and talk about their perfect little bundles of joy. This book helped me to feel less alone, and to understand the unique joiys of my beautiful miracle baby. Thank you Ms. McDermott for helping us all cope with this frightening experience.

    The baby wasn't the important part in this book

    Preemie baby parents and relatives need help in knowing what to expect. The author wrote more about herself than the preemie. Definitely, a Do Not Buy.
