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😍 – at Greenock, Scotland
The theme for tomorrow’s #WorldPrematurityDay2022 is ‘A Parent’s Embrace: A Powerful Therapy. Enable skin-to-skin contact from the moment of birth.’ Our new video with @canadianpreemie explores why skin-to-skin is so important for babies and parents! 🤗 #PrematurityAwarenessMonth

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.

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.

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 who.int/news-room/events/det…

As a parent, you know the first touch and the first hold of your baby means everything. As a neonatal parent, you know how hard getting to those milestone moments can be, and how much can stand between you and your baby.

#WorldPrematurityDay2022 theme is ‘A Parent’s Embrace: A Powerful Therapy’ - couldn’t agree more! After a fleeting glance of my baby, I waited an agonising 8 hours to hold her 💗 Forever grateful to @AberdeenFiCare @NHSGrampian 💗 #KangarooCare #ZeroSeparation #NICU #SkinToSkin

"I am 1 in 10"
An estimated 15 million babies are born too early every year. That is more than 1 in 10 babies.
Use this image below to help share awareness and the show of the strength of your baby and you!
