Our Josie girl was born 10 weeks premature at 1 pound 13oz. She was diagnosed with IUGR; hearing my baby was not growing how she was supposed to be was devastating. We were not able to hold her in our arms until she was 2 weeks old. This was the most difficult experience to navigate as a first time mom. We spent 73 days in the NICU waiting for her to reach new milestones, like getting off oxygen, learning how to eat, and gaining weight. I hope to help other moms and families, and research preterm birth and preeclampsia.
I joined the movement to create positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk.
With preterm birth and maternal death rates continuing to rise, I’m committed to raising funds so that every family gets the best possible start. But I need your help.

With preterm birth rates continuing to rise, the U.S. remains among the most dangerous developed nations for childbirth, especially for women and babies of color.
At March for Babies™ you're lifting up communities, creating connections and taking action to make America a more equitable place and ensure that every mom and baby is healthy.
