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!
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.
Together, we’re marching to raise funds and awareness to transform the health of all families!
THANK YOU FOR YOUR SUPPORT!
