When you become a mum life gets a bit crazy, doesn't it? When you become a preemie mum crazy becomes normal and the old normal ceases to exist at all. This blog explores the impact of premature birth and what it means for a family.
Just sharing this podcast episode from the Amos Madra Show which features me talking about Twenty-four Plus Six and why I wrote the book. Have a listen to find out my thoughts on how we can work together to improve neonatal care in the UK.

My name is Amy and I live in London with my husband and our two little ones. Our second was born unexpectedly at 24 weeks on a family holiday. This blog is about those crazy things that life becomes filled with when you become a mum to a preemie. It's about what they mean to me, how I feel, what my short-term and long-term emotional responses are, and how I am changing as a result of all these new experiences. It's also about how many of those experiences are shared by other preemie parents, or parents whose children are sick. View more posts
Life of a Preemie Mum
Amy, I think this latest interview with Amos Madra is so well done. Amos comes over as a very compassionate person and I’m sure he is that it is just what is needed when you are speaking about the need for compassion. It was excellent for him to emphasize the importance of political action on our part. Amy you have struggled so hard to make the medical world aware and it is over to us now to make our contribution by alerting politicians. It it is no longer acceptable for them to ignore the problems of prematurity. Thank you for all you are doing.Amy. It will cost us so little to back you up. Written with gratitude. M. Stevens
