(smile) I was looking all over for Debbie's last name (Walkins) The lady who makes preemie blankets. Most preemies do not come home till they weigh in at about 5 pounds at least. By they they are actually getting a little meat. My grandson was 1 lb. 4 oz. in NICU for 5 months. We were able to buy preemie clothes I think the last month and go into a sitting room. AND dress him in clothes we brought. It was fun. All day every Sat. and Sun. so wonderful to just hold and love on him... The blanket he received in NICU was a pretty good size blacket, to cover the isolet (sp) That was a hard time in our life and yet God gave us hope, just by giving us another day, then another he is not 17 years old. (((hugs))) re: journey for the parents and family of this 1 lb. 6 oz. baby.... It does not end at the hospital.... lots of momitors, and still a very delicate child usually. AND so so so loveable. :)
