I'm not a NICU nurse but I have been a NICU mommy 3 times.

I want to way there is some sort of info in Preemies: The Essential Guide for Parents of Premature Babies by Dana Wechsler Linden, Emma Trenti Paroli, and Mia Wechsler Doron M.D. I can look sometime in the next couple of days.

I also might still have a handout the NICU where my youngest daughter was admitted: I want to say they had somethings about developmental care, but can't remember for sure if it was broken down by weeks. Again I will have to look for the next couple of days as my little one keeps me busy!:D:redbeathe
