This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.

The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.

I accidentally stumbled upon this film. It touched me so deeply! I had a son at 26 weeks 2lbs 4 oz. it was the most scariest time of my life, it really took an emotional toll on my marriage which ended up in divorce and I suddenly became a single mother of a child with a lot of setbacks. My son didn't exactly have all the issues as Nicholas but he did endure a lot. No one I talked to could understand what I was feeling, at times I still feel at a complete loss with relating to other people with what I go through with my son. Seeing this movie healed me in a way. It let me realize that everything I felt, everything I still go through now that I am not alone. This is a great movie, it helps knowing that I am not the only one who has gone through it. Even though you see other families in the Nicu and you know you are not the only one going through it, you can feel as If you are. Thank you for making this film and sharing your story.

This movie is one of the best I have seen. At times it was hard to watch, but I was rooting till the end for Nicholas. I both cried and laughed in this film because I was feeling the emotions that Nicole was being put through. Ethics seemed to be the issue but you have to watch this movie with an open mind that love alone can save peoples' life. I agree with Nicole Conn, if Nicolas was my son I would have done everything in my power to keep him alive. Get tissues ready as you watch two mothers battle differently with their emotions. Watch a little baby go through hell and come back to a wonderful life and place with two super mommies. I applaud the films creator and director as she made a wonderful choice to do this film.

This documentary was the greatest film I've ever seen!! I had twin micro-preemies who were also born at 25 weeks and weighed 1 pound 9 ounces each. They went through many of the same obstacles that Nicholas went though. little man was so extremely true to life!! There is not one emotion, struggle, worry, battle, or experience that Nicole Conn exaggerated. She documented and told about life with a micro-preemie EXACTLY how it is. It was a very true to life film for me. Nicole Conn captured everything about life with a micro-preemie (or 2!) in an amazingly true light!I think that this film is a must see for NICU moms. I don't think I could have watched it while my twins were still in the NICU, but now, a year and a half later I found the film to be very healing for me. It was comforting to know that another mom had the same emotions and feelings that I had had while my twins were in the NICU.

I thought it was brave of Nicole to shoot this film. She showed all the sides of her journey with Nicolas. I came across this film looking for something to watch. I didn't know what a micro-preemie was. After viewing the documentary, I felt like I had experienced this too. It was powerful and showed the love of two moms. I liked the fact that we explored the strange Nicu ward but also we were able to put ourselves in the mothers' shoes. Seeing and living both sides of this delicate issue.I was happy, I was sad, but most of all I was so proud of the moms. The love coming through for the little baby went a long way. It was a humbling experience. But I am proud of these two remarkable women.
