"This pattern holds a deeper purpose, as it will be featured in the Preemie Crochet Challenge hosted by Sunflower Cottage Crochet. Let's dive into the details of this meaningful project and discover how we can use our skills to make a difference for preemie babies and their families. Understanding the Importance of NICU Bonding Squares: In the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU), the significance of NICU bonding squares cannot be overstated. These small crochet squares provide comfort and connection to preemie babies and their parents during a challenging time. The presence of a bonding square, infused with a parent's scent, can help soothe and calm a baby, promoting a sense of familiarity and security. The mother places one of these square inside her shirt or bra so that it can be covered in her scent. Later, mom places the square near the baby in or around the crib or incubator. Doing this ensures that the baby can smell its mother to feel safe and secure. It helps baby bond with its mother."
