Welcome to That NICU Mum, a podcast sharing the stories of New Zealand parents who have had a baby in a neonatal unit across the country. This episode of That NICU Mum is supported by the Premmie Knitting Club, a NZ registered charity which has a virtual tribe of knitters providing beautiful knitted clothing to units across the country. A huge thank you to Courtney and the whole PKC team for supporting us and our podcast!You can find them online premmieknittingclub.org and on instagram and facebook @premmieknittingclubnz.Today we chat with Jess who had her son Louie at 33 weeks (at a whopping 6lb!) after being diagnosed with hypertension, having lost her mucus plug at 29 weeks, and having leaking waters.She had a fairly positive experience in the unit which ended with Louie coming home on an NG tube - a relatively new initiative to help discharge babies that didn't NEED the support of NICU anymore.Jess was so lovely to talk to and I hope you enjoy!Shan x xYou can follow us on instagram: @thatnicumum Hosted on Acast.
