Prematurity Awareness Day

Posted by kim on November 17, 2009

Today is Prematurity Awareness Day so instead of retelling our tear-jerking preemie story, I thought I’d feature other worth-reading “preemie parent” blog posts from today…

Prematurity Awareness Day – Shouldn’t Have to Be Great quick story and poem about the loss of Baby JW.

Subliminal Intervention: Prematurity Awareness Month I, too, was born in 1972, so this was a interesting read about a man born in 1972 weighing only 2 lb. 2 oz.

Redefining “OK” « The Continuing Adventures of SuperPreemie The story of SuperPreemie Shoshanna who is now a kindergartner.

Because Miracles Happen: We fight because babies shouldn’t have to! Tyler is indeed a 25.3 week 1 lb. 11 oz miracle.

The Spohrs Are Multiplying… » Fight For Preemies Heather & Mike lost Maddie too soon, and I keep baby Binky in my prayers.

Fight for Preemies « I Can Grow People Wear purple today* to show your support for babies born too soon.

*I am still in my pajamas as I write this thinking about what I have purple to wear today. And I looked down and realized my pajamas are purple! Coincidence?

Fostering a sharing and caring environment at home is nothing short of difficult. Especially for twins, who are often times expected to be each other’s best friends, expectations can be overwhelming. Bunk beds for your twins can grant them individual spaces while still learning valuable lessons about compromise and cooperation. The bunk bed helps save space in the kids’ room while your twins work together toward a common goal, whether it be making the bed or deciding who gets to sleep on the top bunk. Comfortable, secure, stylish, and a space saver, bunk beds can also be a vital learning tool for teaching your kids an important lesson in cohabitation.
