I walk for my niece Journey! She was born at 24 weeks old only weighing 1lb 10 oz. She stayed in the NICU for 4 months before coming home, still on a feeding tube. Watching her grow into this beautiful little girl has been the best part of my life. She was truly the miracle baby God promised us. My sister was on bed rest for almost her entire pregnancy and Journey still came early. She is now a happy and healthy 3 year old full of life and attitude, with no health issues.
Additionally I now walk for myself and my son Khai. Pregnancy is harder than I ever expected, it's beautiful but stressful. You constantly wonder if you're doing everything to ensure a healthy full term baby is born. So I walk for all the babies born to soon and all the babies waiting to be born.
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!
