NICU Babies Parent Support

Trigger warning: death and dying Exhaustion and sleep deprivation is a part of any parent's story. In this episode, we visit with professor, neonatologist, researcher and perinatal expert, Dr. Susan Hwang about SIDS (Sudden Infant Death Syndrome), SUID (Sudden Unexpected Infant Death) and safe sleep practices. We also explore why NICU graduates may have unique sleep-related risks, offer practical guidance on safe sleep practices, and address the challenges of translating what happens in the NICU to what families do at home. A bonus? We break down what an exhaustion plan is and how you can make it work for you and your baby. 💚 Connect with Kathryn Whitaker Instagram | Facebook | TikTok | Website 💚 Connect with Dr. Susan Hwang LinkedIn | Website 📺Socials 📺 Instagram | Facebook | Twitter | Pinterest 🔗Links Engagement of Families to Improve the NICU Experience Episode 55: Preventing SUID in NICU Graduates Music Thriving Together [Full version] by MusicLFiles Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/10332-thriving-together-full-version License (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-license Bright Colors Of Life by MusicLFiles Free download: https://filmmusic.io/song/7855-bright-colors-of-life License (CC BY 4.0): https://filmmusic.io/standard-license
