Erin Ashley

The Brown Family...Eric and Katie Brown have had a less than perfect journey to the birth of their daughter, Erin Ashley. Katie is stepmother to two great kids, Hunter and Shelby. She always dreamed of having children of her own to add to their family. In February 2010, Eric and Katie learned they were expecting their first child together. Soon into the pregnancy, they discovered Katie was leaking amniotic fluid due to a premature rupture of membranes. After many stressful doctor visits the couple remained hopeful, even though Katie was assigned to strict bedrest. On July 11, 2010, at less than 24 weeks old, their first daughter was born. They named her Tess and got to spend only a couple of hours with her. She left the world as quickly as she entered. After a series of tests, the couple learned that Katie would be able to have another child and that what had happened to Tess was an unfortunate, isolated incident. After a year of healing, Katie and Eric were expecting again in May 2012 but suffered another loss in the beginning of the pregnancy. They were so thankful for the support March of Dimes gave them while coping with their two losses. Eric and Katie knew they would be able to have a healthy baby and were determined to keep trying. In October 2012 the hopeful couple was pregnant again. Katie did everything she could to have healthy pregnancy. Katie began having contractions on June 18th, 2013 and went into the hospital after her water broke at noon. By 4pm, the couple was blessed with their healthy baby, Erin Ashley. She was one month early, but her head, heart and lungs were perfect. The Browns endured a lot of ups and downs as they tried to have a baby. After reading about how March of Dimes has helped so many other families in similar situations, they knew they wanted to be more involved with the organization. Eric and Katie are passionate about raising awareness for premature birth.
