Even after a baby survives preterm complications, they could face long-term health issues throughout their life.
CHICAGO -- Mothers, babies and countless supporters walked in Grant Park Sunday for a greater cause as they raised critical funds for preterm births.
Every year in the U.S., about 360,000 babies are born preterm, creating problems for their own well-being and their mothers. "They require intensive medical treatment. Our child spent 12 weeks in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit learning to breathe and to eat, and they had to grow. They were a pound and a half at birth," Friedenberger said."It was really overwhelming and you kind of feel alone," added Jamie and Mike Knapstein.
However, on Sunday, the family walked in March for Babies together -- a moment they're not taking for granted.
