Walk America, March of Dimes, and Abortion
Most of the readers of my blog know that I am the mother of a preemie. My son was born with IUGR at 31 weeks. He is now a healthy, happy nearly two year old!
As a mother of a premature child, I naturally supported March of Dimes. They save babies! Right?
Well the answer is yes, and no.
They do amazing work to help give *some* children the chance of life. However, they are huge proponents of amniocentesis and are quick to support "options" when the results are not positive.
Therefore, I can not support the organization. If anyone knows of a pro-life organization that supports prematurity research I would be ecstatic. Until then, I must prayerfully consider where I put my money and my endorsement.

Hey my sister in law gave birth to a premature little girl (about 32 wks, I think) last August with IUGR. She is still only 13lbs and only now coming out of 0-3 month clothes. She has had no complications, praise God, but I was wondering if your son is back "on the charts" now that he is 2 and if so, how long did it take?
