When bringing a preterm baby home, the neonatal care staff will work closely with you to help you prepare and feel confident when caring for your baby at home. From practical skills such as nappy changing, feeding and bathing to administering medication to your baby or using medical equipment; these are a few things you’ll learn all about.
This can also be a difficult time for many preemie parents, so it’s important to look after your mental health and ask for support when you need it.
