Just four months after the birth of their first child, a Utah couple learned that they were expecting again. They were even more startled to learn that they were expecting twins, who would arrive fewer than 11 months after their big sister. In November 2018, Shaylee, 30, and Mykal Bush, 39, welcomed their first child, a daughter they called Shaylee. They were so ecstatic, in fact, that Shaylee claims she had another baby on the brain at the hospital. But while she may not have meant she wanted another one immediately, that’s what the couple got: They confirmed that they…

Each child, when he is born, has a unique feature that distinguishes him from the others. Perhaps it’s the color of the eyes, a mole placed in an unusual place or the shape that recalls something particular, but there are also small ones that immediately stand out for their original hair. Babies don’t tend to have very thick hair, or at least it’s always quite “soft,” which is not the case with the little girl we want to tell you about. Thanks to her hair, she quickly became a small web star. The little girl in question is called Arla…
Amber Rojas was excited to welcome a new baby, but she realized almost immediately that her newborn had Dᴏᴡɴ sʏɴᴅʀᴏᴍᴇ and would need special care. The family, which lives in Cedar Hill, Texas, includes 10-year-old Xavier, 8-year-old twins Kaydence and Zayden, and toddler Evra, who was about to turn 2. Amber Rojas, her husband Fernando, and their four children felt ready – well, as ready as you can ever be – for baby number five. When Amber Rojas became pregnant for the fourth time, she decided not to find out the sᴇx of the baby and make it a surprise…
When doctors tell a new mother that the fetus developing in her ᴡᴏᴍʙ is not growing as expected, may be ᴅɪsᴀʙʟᴇᴅ, or is genetically ɪʟʟ, her world ᴄᴏʟʟᴀᴘsᴇs. After all, every woman just wants to be able to give birth to a healthy child once she becomes pregnant. However, there are cases when, despite the bad news, the newborn baby does not give up and fights together with his family to have a normal, full life. Katie Whiddon-Greene from Texas also waited optimistically, full of hopes, for her first child, not even imagining what fate had in store for her.…
“It all began on May 26, 2013. I was 35 weeks pregnant with my first child, a boy, when I started having what I now know to be contractions. I was certain it was false labor. After all, we still had 5 more weeks to go to reach full term. But they persisted. And they became increasingly more painful and were occurring in closer and closer intervals. The next thing I knew, I was headed to our local OB ER and was being told by a very kind nurse I needed to prepare for my baby’s early arrival. I still…
“I can’t tell you the story of how our beautiful daughter Mila joined our family without telling you how it all began—how another little girl we also call our daughter brought us to Ukraine and lead us to Mila. She is the reason we even began the journey of international special needs adoption. So, to honor her, this is really her story. And how she lead us to her little sister. One day, in June of 2019, I was scrolling through Facebook and came across a Reece’s Rainbow advocacy post for a beautiful 3-year-old girl, listed as ‘Kristen.’ I had…
“Before my daughter was born I did not spend much time picturing her. Some of that was because I was still a resident physician during my pregnancy and worked pretty much up until the day I delivered. I was too busy and tired for daydreams. Some of it had to do with us not finding out the gender so baby did not have a name yet. Either way though, I did not imagine her hair, her nose, or her dimples, I made assumptions. I assumed she would have a heart that worked properly. I assumed she would nurse, cry, and…
“A newly-made dad emerges into a crowded waiting room with his baby wrapped in a pink or blue towel in his arms. Everyone stands up excitedly as he proudly announces the sex, weight, and name and says, ‘Mother and baby are doing well.’ There are hugs, happy tears, and pats on the back. There’s nothing but joy and celebration in the movies. Well, our reality was nothing like the movies. Mother didn’t know how she was doing. Baby… we had no idea what his situation was either. The baby in our arms wasn’t the baby we were expecting. The baby…
“The doctor said he’d call a week ago, but still no news. I knew something was wrong. So many messages had gone unanswered. Then, while out for a walk with my mom, my phone rang. I answered it and heard a nurse say she was going to hand the phone to my doctor. It was the call I’d been waiting for but not the call I wanted. He explained, ‘Your baby’s prenatal testing had identified a chromosomal disorder. You’ll have to schedule an appointment with a genetic counselor.’ That was it. I got the name of a syndrome but no…
“It was the year 2020— new decade, new you. Humans were full of hope and motivation to make this the best year yet. For me, I was on a journey I knew was going to change my life. I’d just pictured a different journey. A week into the new year, my pregnancy nausea started. Being our third baby, whom we nicknamed ‘Greenbean,’ I knew it was going to hit, and I knew it would hit hard. I always wonder why they call it morning sickness when, for some like me, it’s debilitating around the clock. I remember wanting nothing more…
“Over 10 years ago, my husband, Ryan, and I decided it was time to start our family. I had this picture-perfect idea of what I thought our life would look like. Two or three healthy, thriving kids. Maybe one of them would want to dance like I did as a child and teen. Maybe one of them would be the MVP of their baseball team like my husband was during his high school days. Life had been pretty easy and pretty darn perfect up until this point, so why wouldn’t it continue this way? That naïve 25-year-old version of myself…
