[00:00:00]You finally bring your baby home from the NICU, but it doesn't feel how you thought it would.

[00:00:05]People often expect that that's the moment when everything settles.

[00:00:10]That the worry eases.

[00:00:12]That you can finally relax.

[00:00:15]But for many parents, it's not that simple.

[00:00:18]I remember bringing my daughter home and still feeling on edge.

[00:00:23]Listening for sounds that weren't there anymore.

[00:00:26]Watching her closely.

[00:00:28]Wondering if I was doing things right without the monitors.

[00:00:32]Without the team around us.

[00:00:34]Wanting their support. And at the same time feeling the pressure of it.

[00:00:40]I've heard this from many of the parents I work with, too.

[00:00:44]That coming home can bring a different kind of weight.

[00:00:47]Cuz now it's all on you.

[00:00:50]And everything you've been through doesn't just switch off.

[00:00:54]The fear. The uncertainty.

[00:00:57]The memories of what happened.

[00:00:59]They can come with you.

[00:01:02]And for some families, home looks very different.

[00:01:06]And that matters, too.

[00:01:08]So, if this part of the journey felt harder than you expected, you're not alone in that.

[00:01:14]And however you are navigating things now, be gentle with yourself if you can.
