Bonding With Your Baby in the NICU | What Helped Me in the Cardiac ICU

Описание: If your NICU baby is behind glass and you feel more like a visitor than a
mother — this video is for you. As a labor and delivery nurse AND a Cardiac
NICU mom myself, I know exactly how isolating that journey feels. Here's
what actually helped me bond with my baby in the NICU — and it can help
you too.

Whether you're in the newborn NICU, a Cardiac ICU, or anywhere in between,
bonding IS possible — even through wires, monitors, and fear.

✅ WHAT YOU'LL LEARN:
The Power of Scent (how your baby learns "Mama is here")
Holding Through the Fear (Containing Touch for cardiac babies)
Using Your Voice (why your baby's vitals change when you speak)
Active Participation in Care (how to reclaim your role in the NICU)

💡 REMEMBER: Your touch is medicine. Your voice is healing.
You are not a visitor — you are their parent. 💛
