Becoming Parents in NICU During the COVID Pandemic: Challenges and Opportunities

During the COVID-19 pandemic many hospitals in Italy restricted parental access to Newborn Intensive Care Units (NICU). In the best of cases parents have been allowed to stay with their babies only one parent at a time, wearing face masks.
