Please enjoy Preemie Prints' families inspirational story & photos. Consider supporting our mission to share hope with families who have a baby born prematurely or critically ill. We thank our supporters, Preemie Prints volunteers, and donors for allowing us to continue touching the lives of NICU, preemie, and angel families.
We pray these special memories from Preemie Prints
will help families heal and remember how strong
they were in overcoming their NICU journey together.
OUR NICU JOURNEY | FROM MOM
"Graham Honor was born on February 5th at 12:04 pm. I was 25 weeks pregnant at the time. He was 1 lb. 7 oz. Even though we were not prepared for his early birth, we have been so blessed by Graham's entrance into this world! He keeps us entertained and smiling every day!
Our NICU journey was a difficult, but encouraging one. We has an amazing primary nurse in the NICU who acted as Graham's second momma while we couldn't be there. When Graham was born we weren't prepared to bring our baby into the world, but we learned so much about the power of prayer and the strength of our little one. He went through some rough times in the NICU. He got sick about a month after his birth. The hospital stopped all feedings and put him on two different antibiotics. During this time we saw Graham persevere and it inspired us to become stronger parents as well as humbled us. Graham came home with us after 82 days in the NICU. We have so enjoyed having with us! He is still on oxygen and a monitor, but getting stronger every day! Even though all the Dr. appointments can seem overwhelming at times it is all worth it! He is our little miracle baby and we wouldn't have it any other way.."

A note from Jessica:
"The photo shoot with the Robison Family went great. We had lots of smiles and giggles from the parents, their six year old son, and even baby Graham gave a few smiles/smirks too! I enjoyed hearing their journey with their new addition, Graham, and other stories about their family. Those are two lucky children to have such loving, caring, and patient parents! I wish you the best and will always keep your family in my prayers."

One of those programs is the gift of NICU photography and preemie photography. NICU families from across the US can request a no-charge photography session by a Preemie Prints volunteer. The family request from can be found on the right side of our website. These sessions are free of charge and for any NICU family, regardless of time spent in the NICU. The NICU photo shoot can take place inside the NICU or after baby is discharged and at home until their 1st birthday. Facing time in a NICU with a premature or critically ill baby is an extremely difficult time for families. Preemie Prints has a mission to share hope by letting families know they are not alone.
