We are excited to be back on the podcast with this sisterhood! To kick off our return, we are honored to share Jamie's story.

Jamie, a labor and delivery nurse, never expected to find herself on the other side of care, but at 20 weeks, unexpected complications changed everything. She opens up about the emotional toll of bed rest, the moment she realized she wouldn’t be leaving the hospital until her daughter was born, and the heartbreaking reality of delivering at just 26 weeks.

Jamie vulnerably reflects on the highs and lows of their NICU experience, from hearing her daughter’s heartbeat slow on the monitor to facing diagnoses like IUGR, a PDA, and a grade three brain bleed. She shares how she found strength in her faith, family, and the unwavering love for her daughter, Nala, as they navigated the unknowns of prematurity and long hospital stays.

As you listen to Jamie’s story, we hope that other NICU moms, especially those facing high-risk pregnancies and early deliveries, feel seen, supported, and reminded that you are never alone.
