569 reactions · 44 shares | Hitting milestones is a huge step forward. For some families the milestones happen fairly quickly or without any obstacles. There are others who hit these milestones and take several steps back. If you’ve been one of those families you understand completely the feeling of waiting forever for this day to come. Maybe it’s finally coming down on a Peep setting, being off the oscillator, coming off CPAP or graduating to an open crib. | Preemie Adventures | Facebook

It’s not always about the big milestones… sometimes it’s the little moments that mean the most. ✨ The first time they grab your finger ✨ That tiny yawn through the isolette ✨ The first outfit you finally get to dress them in ✨ Kangaroo cuddles after waiting days ✨ A machine not beeping for once ✨ That smile from a nurse who just gets it These are the moments we hold onto 💛 Because in the NICU, the little things… Aren’t so little. #NICUMoments #NICUJourney #PreemieStrong #NICUWarrior #MicroPreem
