September is NICU awareness month and we want to thank all of the neonatologists, the NICU nurses, respiratory therapists, social workers, child life specialists, lactation specialists, and dietitians. The care and attention that these people give to very vulnerable babies and their parents is just unmatched. 

We also want to thank the moms out there that have donated breast milk to the NICU units.
