HELLO....Is this thing on?????

Last week, I posted a request for *coming home* advice...... I only 
received one reply.

I think it would really be helpful to put an advice sheet together.

Please think about when you brought your little one home, think of all 
the questions you had.  Think of all the inventive ways you came up with 
dealing with the special needs of a preemie.  Stuff like comforting 
them, things that helped keep all the meds, and feedings straight.  
Advice on visitors and outings.  How you dealt with O2 tanks. How much 
you did or didn't bundle them.  ANYTHING!!!!!

I am research the archives for topics already discussed, but I really 
think it would be helpful to put all the advice from those of us who've 
been there done that, together in one spot to distrubute to those just 
bringing their miracles home.
