Preemies - Second Edition Résumé

Preemies - Second Edition Dana Wechsler Linden

Preemies, Second Edition is the only parents' reference resource of its kind--delivering up-to-the-minute information on medical care in a warm, caring, and engaging voice. Authors Dana Wechsler Linden and Emma Trenti Paroli are parents who have "been there."

Preemies, Second Edition covers topics related to premature birth, including:

Can you do something to delay early labor?

What do doctors know about you baby's outlook during her first minutes and days of life?

How will your preemie's progress be monitored?

How do you cope with a long hospitalization?

Will your preemie grow up healthy? Normal?
