My Early Arrival Preemie Baby Book - Reviews

Comments:

While this book was a bit pricey, it was so worth it. It is an absolute must have for any family of a premature infant. I think our preemie daughter (born at 23.6 weeks, now 7 weeks old) will enjoy this for years to come. Other baby books just wouldn't have worked for her. This has darling illustrations and spaces for journaling and photographs about such enormous NICU milestones as first bath, coming off the ventilator (and various other therapies), moving to an open crib, removing billishades, etc. It also made me feel closer to her progress by recording her daily weights and helped me feel there was something I could do for her in a world where a mom can feel helpless to do anything for her baby. My husband and I both enjoy writing little notes that we imagine she will read when she is older. I took it to show my daughter's nurses and they all swooned. Buy this book for yourself or as a gift! I don't think anyone would be disappointed.

This book is wonderful to record Preemie's special developmental stages. I bought it as a gift for my son and his wife (my grandson was born @ 32 weeks) and they both loved it!!

This baby book has specific catagories for preemies. It is so important for preemie parents to be able to document those early days and regular baby books don't have a place for that. Thank you!

Only baby book found that is for premature birth. All the descriptions apply, which is so wonderful. Trying to fill out a traditional baby book was limiting and frustrating.

This is a great book for parents of preemies to record everything that's happening. Obviously you can't plan ahead to get this book but if you keep a journal then it's easy to fill out. I don't like that it has extra pages that not everyone will use...like first hannukah, christening..etc. Love the design!

My son was born 10 weeks early and is currently staying at the NICU of Medical Center of Plano. I love this book as I am able to note all the relevant milestones and important dates! Can't wait to fill it out :)

I wish I had ordered this book the day I found out I would be delivering early. The book is perfect for every special moment my little daughter is going through. She was born two months early, and there is enough room for those big milestones she's hitting in the NICU. Every nurse loves it.

This made a wonderful gift to my dear friends, whose first child is a very premature little girl. My friends were in the NICU, scared and sad at not having a "normal" birth experience. This Early Arrival Baby Book helped them feel some of the same excitement and celebration as any other parents, as they got to fill in baby milestones that are unique to preemies. I am so glad the Preemie Store made this gift available. It made a huge, positive difference to my friends' parenting experience.

I bought this book for a friend who's twins arrived 16 weeks too soon. I bought this book for my son when he arrived 9 weeks early and found it a great way to recall the journey he had through the NICU. I'm glad that I knew about this baby book so my friend can journal her surviving twin's accomplishments.

Amazing book... I was so upset when I started filling out the original baby book I bought.. nothing applied and didn't document our journey... This book is awesome!

I just love the pages in this baby book that you won''t find in a "regular" baby book. I wish I would have had it sooner so I could have started filling it out immediately. (My son is now 5 weeks old.) I especially like the spots for photos of his first beds and the spaces for recording daily weights and billirubin levels. I''m going to show it to my hospital gift shop and see if they would be interested in carrying it so other NICU families can have them too!
