Tuesday, October 21, 2014. New School New Start. I'm here to talk about our experience. Once our son turned three it wasn't easy getting him the services he needed and after 3 years of arguing with the schools, having advocates and attorneys involved we realized it was cheaper to move. So.after much research we ended up getting him into a system that had what he needed. Then throw in a bad match with the teacher? In place that we weren't comfortable with from the beginning but, we felt like we needed to ...

NICUmama Blog: A mom's guide to the nicu and preemie experience and special needs....: Special Needs and Puberty
http://www.nicumama.com/2014/01/special-needs-and-puberty.html
Friday, January 10, 2014. Special Needs and Puberty. Yes, its true even preemies grow up at some point. I'm sure you have heard the phrase "its doesn't get easier it just gets different". Well that holds true in so many ways. My son was and easy baby for the most part (minus his medical complications) as he grew he was pretty easy going, could take him anywhere, he wouldn't fuss. Just a go with the flow type of kid. Wrong This is so different, in so many ways. Picture, the body changing but the mind?

http://www.nicumama.com/2011/04/poetry.html
Saturday, April 2, 2011. I was going through some old scrapbooks and found some baby poems on preemies and specials needs that I had saved. These are just a few of my favorite baby poems that had touched my heart and still do in many ways. I hope you enjoy these poems as I did (and still do). By Sandra D. Moore. The preemie experience is the shattering of all your dreams for a normal healthy delivery. Of the ability to carry home a beautiful squirming bundle after a short stay in the hospital. It is hear...

Wednesday, March 2, 2011. Congratulations on your new miracle! S/he is truly a miracle. Chances are if you’re finding the Nicumama website you have a preemie or a baby in the NICU (neonatal intensive care unit). Soyour pregnancy and/or delivery wasn’t as “perfect” as you imagined or as everyone said it was going to be. I know. I get it. Collin 2 days old. Outside of the NICU, talking to family and friends was a bit tough. Most of the time I felt as though I was speaking a foreign language. Use Nicumama a...

http://www.nicumama.com/2012/07/behaviorsoh-my.html
Friday, September 21, 2012. Anxiety and Behaviors . My son has always had what we thought as cute but a quirky behaviors but as he gets older its not so cute anymore. However, isn't it a known fact that with anxiety comes behaviors? Looking back his anxieties have always been there but once he reached second grade these behaviors turned into things like kicking, poking, grabbing and screaming, curse words! I'm pretty sure this plan will backfire, but we need to give it a try. Aside from his anxieties fro...

Monday, June 2, 2014. To all the mothers. I found this note tucked away in a book I had back in 2010. No idea where I printed it from but it is signed on bottom from "Patricia" the grandma to "Trisha". I thought I'd share because this is so beautifully written.hope you enjoy it as much as I do. To all the mothers. Here's for all the mothers feel a vast emptiness when they touch the tummy, cause the baby should still be growing there. Instead they are fighting for life, miles away in a NICU. For the mothe...
