    thank you!

    so baby can have visitors if we want them??

    we would only have the grandmas and 2 aunties to be able to see her, but not to hold her if she was in NICU

    KEMH Perth have a two visitor rule and one of those must be a parent, there are exception to the rule for instance, DP Brendan and I were all allowed in to visit Tristan.

    I have heard nothing but good experiences from my friends who have been through the hospital, actually I haven't heard many bad experiences from ANY NICU hospitals.

    It's mum or dad plus a visitor but I'm sure they have exceptions
