Mothers Sing To Preemie Babies In Hospital

Having a baby born premature is never easy. One the mother is discharged from the hospital, normally the baby has to stay there for a while. That means a new mom must leave her newborn, at least for a little bit. That has to be extremely difficult.

Hospitals know that both mom and baby will be missing each other while they are apart so they teamed up with music therapists for a special project. The music therapists work with parents and help them record their voices so that babies can hear their parent's voices.

It can be a song or a bedtime story, anything that would provide a newborn some much-needed comfort. This is such an amazing initiative and I know that it's creating a lifelong bond between mother and child. What a great idea!
