The First Two Years after Neonatal HIE

WE'VE BROUGHT HOME OUR BABY, NOW WHAT?

We know that coming home is filled with mixed emotions, and a lot of uncertainty.

There are many appointments, expectations, anticipation and likely anxiety, of how things will go with your child's development now that you've cleared the hurdle of the NICU.

We've put together a visit-by-visit online planner for appointments you may be preparing for across different doctors and therapies.

Life after the NICU can also be filled with what feels like learning a new language, and we want you to know that we are with you every step, every inchstone, of the way.

Empowerment in the Journey

We've set up the developmental timeline in a way that will help guide you as you prepare for medical appointments, enroll in early intervention services, become familiar with the seemingly never-ending new language you are learning, and helping support you through any new diagnoses and plot twists along the way.

Each section contains:

  • Things to help you prepare for upcoming appointments
  • What your team may be looking for from a neurodevelopmental perspective
  • Potential follow-up plans, post-appointment
  • Things to support you in between appointments
