What Every Parent Should Know About the NICU With Micha Clark

Unexpected news happens often during pregnancy and during the birthing process. When parents think about the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) we often associate that experience with premature babies or parents having multiples. During this episode we talk with Micha Clark, a neonatal therapist and parent coach, about what this process really looks like and how parents experiencing a high-risk pregnancy or admittance to the NICU can make this an easier transition for themselves and their babies. Micha also shares the tips she’s learned from years of consulting in the NICU that will help you get your baby out of the NICU faster and adjust better during and after a NICU stay.
