Millie was born at 23 weeks and 6 days gestation, weighing 1 lb 4 oz at birth. After spending 135 days in the hospital, she was finally ready to come home. We used this blog to track her miraculous journey, and keep it up to celebrate this little girl. In keeping this thorough record, it is our hope that another NICU parent may find comfort, and all those that know Millie may recognize that Heavenly Father performs miracles every day.
Here are some of her big moments:
- Birth

- Opening Her Eyes For the First Time (about three weeks old)
