It'll Make You Cry

Our 4-weeks early kids were only in the NICU for a bit, and then as big, healthy babies with slight sugar and breathing problems and thus not in the same jeopardy of the other babies there, but this post on preemies at Motherlode still captures the way we felt those first few days. Even when they got home, we were scared that they were somehow more fragile than non-preemie babies who didn't go to the NICU. You'll read it and weep.
