📚 World Book Day 2026 📚

Yesterday volunteers from the Renfrewshire book bug team came into the RAH Neonatal Unit to read to the babies and parents to celebrate world book day! Thank you to the volunteers who generously gave up their time, it is greatly appreciated! 😊

From around 22 weeks in pregnancy your baby can hear in the womb and can recognise/respond to your voice. Hearing a parents voice can calm and reassure your baby, making them feel secure 🥰

Your voice lets your baby know that you are there, and the words they hear will help your baby’s brain and language develop in the future 👶🏼

Benefits for parents also include distraction, feeling calmer, bonding and attachment ❤️

🥳 Happy belated 1st birthday Cormoran! 🥳

On the 14th December Cormoran celebrated his big first birthday! 💙

Mum Jennifer sent in this lovely update to share -
“Hi there, we wanted to share that our little guy Cormoran has just celebrated his first birthday with his family and especially his doting sister Cora.

Cormoran was born at 35 weeks which came as a bit of a surprise to us and meant that we had to attend Cora's nativity via WhatsApp video whilst Cormy was growing a bit stronger.

We are so grateful to the nicu staff and wider maternity team not only for the care they provided our little guy but also that which they showed to our family. We have had a year full of adventures, travelling to the lake district and as far as Australia. We will always be grateful for your support and merry Christmas when it comes”

Happy belated birthday from everyone at RAH NICU, we are glad to hear that you have had a great time celebrating! 🥰
