Welcome to share, i am sorry about your early birth. I also had a baby in the nicu and I had to quit my job because I was so afraid to leave my baby,Natalie is now 10 months and I am still afraid of leaving her I am a stay at home mom now, it has been hard financially for me big time its not easy, i give you lots of credit for being strong and going back to work,dont worry while your baby is at the nicu shes in the best care besides you can always call to check your baby's status. good luck on your little girl she will be home with you soon

Welcome to Share. The NICU is such a roller coaster and your emotions are all over the place. Just remember that your daughter is in the best place for her health. I hope that she continues to improve, keep us updated.

Katie
