Florence SN

I was reading all your messages. I am a junior this year in a BSN program and my daughter just gave birth to a darling little girl at 28 weeks, Nicole Christine. She weighs 2#12 ozs., and is only 14.4" long. Have not done my maternity rotation yet, so went to library and got a good book on Premature babies written my a NICU MD and a nurse practioner, it has kind of scared me about all the things that can go wrong. My daughter is not handling this very well and I have been very supportive. is it normal for her to not seem to want to call the NICU? She does visit every day, though. is there something I should be doing to help her cope better? Grandbaby is doing ok, she is under bili lights which I understand, but is having hard time tolerating her feedings, they are feeding her through a syringe on a pump. I feel uncomfortable asking too may questions since I am only the grandmother and not the parent, and am afraid because of new regulations they won't tell me too much!
