A community of parents of preemies compiled these lists of simple acts of kindness and helpful words that you can share when youre not sure what to say or do. 10 Things to Say to the Parents of Preemies 1. Congratulations! Your baby is beautiful! 2. Youre stronger than you know, and your baby is strong like you. 3. If youd like someone to be there with you in the NICU, Id be happy to just sit with you. 4. Can I see a picture? 5. When can I come and visit him/her? 6. After this experience, your bond with your baby is going to be so strong. 7. Prematurity is not your fault and its really unfair. 8. What can I do during cold and flu season to keep your family safe? 9. Cry if you need to; I can be strong for you when you need to take a break. 10. Youre a great mom! / Youre a great dad! _________________________________________________ 10 Things to Do for the Parents of Preemies 1. Go food shopping and then cook and freeze a couple (or a lot) of meals that are easy to reheat. 2. Look after a preemie parents other children so she or he can spend that much more time in the NICU. 3. Visit the new parents and their preemie as soon as the time is right – and focus on the baby, not the equipment. 4. Reschedule a NICU or home visit when you know youve been exposed to germs but arent feeling sick (especially during flu and RSV season). 5. Help them get to and from the hospital when transportation is an issue. 6. Walk the dog, feed the cat, mow the lawn… anything that gives a preemie parent less to do at home. 7. Just listen. Parents of premature babies may have thoughts or feelings you dont understand; you dont have to get it. 8. Give a gift their baby can use right now – premature babies who arent ready for clothes can often wear specially sized hats. 9. Be understanding when the mom or dad of a preemie doesnt have a lot of time for you, even if youve been missing them for weeks or months. parentsofpreemiesday.org/friends_supporters.html
