The Early Birds by Jenny Minton

In the winter of 2002, Jenny Minton delivered her sons, Sam and Gus. She was thirty-one weeks pregnant, and her boys, conceived through in vitro fertilization, were more than two months early. Both boys were placed on immediate life support, and for sixty-four days they hovered, critically ill, in the neonatal intensive care unit of a New York City hospital. The Early Birds is a record of their time there and the story of Minton's harrowing, triumphant quest to bring her sons home.
Jenny Minton is a former book editor. She lives outside Hartford, CT, with her husband and three sons and is a freelance book-reviewer for the Hartford Courant.
