We celebrated #WorldPrematurityDay with a lunch for all the families, currently on our neonatal ward. It was a great oppurtunity for familes to come together, share experiences, find comfort, and build lasting support.
It was an inspiring day at the Inaugural NICU Symposium, bringing together faculty, staff, learners & partners from across McMaster to celebrate achievements, share lived experiences, & explore the future of neonatal care—highlighted by Dr. Saroj Saigal’s keynote.

My daughter was born at 27 weeks. Doctors were not sure if she was going to survive her first weekend. Last month she celebrated her 12th birthday.

Happy birthday and happy World Prematurity Day to my favorite 24-weekers. It's been quite a ride.

A tiny premature baby, weighing less than two pounds, is tucked down his mama's shirt, along with all the tubes and wires that keep him alive in the NICU.
Happy World Prematurity Day from the tiniest baby who, at age 12, is now taller than his mama and calls her Bruh.

Part of the difficulty is when you have no point of reference. No one you know who’s been through the same.
If this is something you’re going through (or have been through recently) and want to talk about it, my DMs are open.

One thing I’ll remember for a long time is when a lm obstetrician sat my wife and I down in a hallway and told us that we had to “get used to the idea that you’re going to have a premature baby”.
It can be rough (born at 30 weeks), but we have been incredibly lucky.

Today is #WorldPrematurityDay. We take this day to honor the babies born too soon and thank researchers and clinicians who have dedicated their work to improving outcomes for preterm infants and their families.

NICU journeys carry profound psychological weight. 💜
On World Prematurity Day, the Psycle Lab advocates for equitable, evidence-based perinatal mental-health support across all communities.

Premature babies are born before 37 weeks and often need specialist care.
On #WorldPrematurityDay, we’re raising awareness for these tiny fighters and the NICU teams who support them.
Apollon was born at 35 weeks and needed that care at St Mary’s.
Happy #WorldPrematurityDay!
Here's to all the preemies!
My other half & I were both born premature. I was actually supposed to be born on Christmas Day, but couldn't wait that long...
