Born Too Soon
The Emotional Journey of a Neo Mum
Introduction
A raw, down to earth account of a 91 day journey through a Neonatal Unit with a First-time Mother and her Son; who was spontaneously delivered at 28 weeks gestation. For those who have never experienced the intense emotional rollercoaster that living life in a Neonatal Unit evokes; this story is an insight into what each Premmie Mum faces on a daily basis. For those Mums who HAVE lived it, you will empathise and relate. And for those Mums about to face the journey; it is hopefully an inspiration to you - something you can draw strength and comfort from.
Personal Battles and Miracles
It's also about a personal battle with Post Natal Depression, and the profound effects it had on the Author. Giving birth is one of Life's greatest miracles and gifts; but when it doesn't go according to plan, and your experience is anything BUT conventional - it can leave you emotionally debilitated. Life in a Neonatal Unit is one of the most humbling and confronting things a Mother can experience - but take heart; because through all the tears, there ARE moments of joy. And even though at times it may feel like it - You are never alone.
Sharing and Support
This is just ONE story among thousands; shared openly to offer solace to new Neonate Mums. The Author is also pledging to donate a percentage of all royalties from each book sold, to the RFDS and to The Flinders Neonatal Unit; Two very worthy recipients that deserve the recognition for the amazing work they do.
