Sitting in the hospital, not knowing what is next.

What will the doctors say about my 1 lb baby?

How long will my baby be in here?

Will my baby make it?

Why did my body fail me and this baby?

In honor of NICU Awareness Month, I have my friend Brandi Storey on the podcast to tell her story.

Brandi lives outside of Fort Worth with her husband, Jamie and two little girls.

Brandi's second pregnancy was a little different than her first. She was admitted to the hospital at 26 weeks pregnant for bed rest with pre-eclampsia and started induction 6 days later because of HELLP syndrome. Penny was born at 27 weeks and spent 112 days in the NICU.

Brandi suffered from a lot of guilt right after birth and feeling disconnected from her baby. They also struggled with juggling a high risk baby in the hospital all while having a 2 year old at home.

She shares the hard & unknowing times, how Jamie & her stayed strong through it all & how celebrating the small victories, lead to the big victory. As well as, advice for couples and families who have a baby in the NICU today.
