Why hasn’t Congress done anything about Zika yet? #zapzika

September 6, 2016 By katbiggie 1 Comment

zap zika

Congress just returned to work after a seven-week break. Guess what they haven’t done anything about yet? They have done nothing to combat Zika. Over this summer, mosquitos started infecting people with Zika in parts of southern Florida.  In Puerto Rico, thousands of cases of Zika have been diagnosed, including hundreds in pregnant women. And new reports […]

World Prematurity Awareness Day 2015

November 17, 2015 By katbiggie 2 Comments

World Prematurity Awareness Day

We talk about World Prematurity Awareness Day because prematurity can happen to any baby. All causes for preterm birth are not even known, but there are ways you can be prepared and reduce your risk of going into preterm labor. The idea of having micro preemie babies never even crossed my radar. In my situation, […]

Tiny Superhero

March 27, 2015 By katbiggie 2 Comments

A few days ago, my sweet survivor baby Tiny asked if she could rest with my “Kathryn Bear.” I reluctantly said yes. This Kathryn bear is so very special to me. It was hand made by a volunteer for the Molly Bears organization, and it weighs exactly the same amount that my Kathryn did when […]

Are You At Risk for Preterm Birth? World Prematurity Day

November 17, 2014 By katbiggie 3 Comments

World Prematurity Day

When I found out I was pregnant with my third child, which surprisingly turned out to be twins, I never thought twice about having a preterm baby. I had carried two babies to 40 weeks and 1 day each. The first had come on his own (thankfully so, because he had a nukal chord and […]

World Prematurity Day Today we’ll be joining hundreds of thousands of people in making our voices heard about prematurity. If you’ve ever even had to spend ONE day in a NICU, you know it is not a fun place to be. Imagine spending 25 days there? Imagine EIGHT FOUR. That’s how long Tiny spent in […]
