prem prnts

When faced with the birth of a child born very preterm, most parents' first question is, “Will our baby live?” Then, “If so, how will she be?” or “What will his life be like?” And finally, “What will our lives look like now?” Generally, parents do not ask, “Will our child have neurodevelopmental impairment?” or “Will our child have a Bayley cognitive composite score less than 85?”
