Our team, March for Wesley is part of the movement to create positive change for moms and babies everywhere, especially those most at risk.
On January 20, 2026, what should have been a routine doctors appointment turned into an emergency C-section. Due to sudden onset preeclampsia Wesley & I were in danger and it was determined preterm birth was the best option. At 8:27pm, Wesley entered the world and was taken to the NICU immediately. For the first weeks of her life she was hooked up to machines and tubes to help her grow into the baby she is now. March of Dimes and March for Babies helps families like ours in many ways.
With preterm birth and maternal death rates continuing to rise, we’re committed to raising funds so that every family gets the best possible start. And you can help 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!
