our respiratory adventure book

Written by a neonatologist and a micro-preemie dad, this book takes you on a fun RESPIRATORY ADVENTURE through the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU) as seen from the point of view of different families around the world. Doc Fort (a true-life neonatologist) will be your tour-guide as we explain some of the breathing problems, treatments and equipment used to heal babies. The book prepares parents for NICU life and serves as a keepsake of their own personal journey for years to come. The use of humor, heartwarming images and educational tips will help to make the NICU experience one highlighted by milestones, memories, and laughter.

"Dear NICU Mama felt like a life raft when I was drowning… It was the first time I felt there were words to describe the intense, multitude of emotions I was feeling. I felt seen. I clung to this community and this sisterhood in our darkest days and still find comfort in it daily."

-CARRIE

“I found DNM while I was fresh in the NICU with my 30 weeker. I spent time going through the entire feed and reading posts and comments from other NICU moms. It helped me feel like I wasn’t alone, and that our journey and story is worth sharing and talking about. It gave me inspiration to share our journey and help others where I could.”
