A Message to New Irish Parents
The arrival of a new baby is a very exciting time for a family – but having one or more babies born prematurely can be quite demanding and stressful. It is our hope that this Premature Baby website will help you to understand your baby's progress and give you the confidence to ask the questions you need, to find out how to care for your premature baby. We also hope that it will help you to look after your baby at home, and direct you where to turn for help, if necessary.
