Right now, babies need all the help they can get. Premature birth affects about 380,000 babies here in the United States - and our little Teddy was one of them.
After developing preeclampsia, Jill delivered Teddy at 29 weeks/5 days. Our NICU journey was long and tough - 96 days - and we couldn't have made it without the help and support of our March of Dimes parent coordinator, network and services.
Jill, Nate, Teddy and little sister Penny (born late preterm at 36 weeks due to placental abruption) are walking in March for Babies to raise awareness about infant prematurity and how you can help. We hope you will consider supporting this cause that is so important to us!
March of Dimes is dedicated to bringing people together to tackle America's maternal and infant health crisis—one person, one community, and one step at a time. More than a series of walks, March for Babies is an annual tradition that supports moms and babies every day, every step of the way.
March for Babies connects friends, families, and coworkers to improve the health of families nationwide. Together with March of Dimes, each step forward brings us closer to a healthy future for all.
Thank you for your support!
