In "Born Too Soon," Alex and Stella Mokori share their deeply personal journey through the highs and lows of having a preterm baby. When their baby stopped growing at 33 weeks, they faced an unexpected and life-changing emergency operation. This heartfelt guide offers a rare glimpse into the emotional rollercoaster of parenting a preterm infant, balancing medical advice with love, hope, and resilience.

The Mokoris recount their challenging months in the neonatal intensive care unit, emphasizing the importance of support systems, both personal and professional. They highlight the critical role of healthcare providers, the emotional stress of feeding challenges, and the physical and psychological adjustments parents must make.

"Born Too Soon" also explores the cultural implications of preterm birth, particularly in African communities, where traditional rituals and customs are disrupted. The authors advocate for greater empathy and support from medical teams, sharing their experiences to help other parents navigate similar journeys.

This book is a practical guide for new parents, offering tips and tools to cope with the demands of a preterm baby. It underscores the need for increased awareness and resources to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates. The Mokoris' story is a testament to the strength and resilience of parents, reminding readers that, despite the challenges, the journey of parenthood is filled with unexpected joys and profound love.
