In honor of Wyatt's birthday, we are shaking up the Holiday Series to share his story. Hailey (Wyatt's mom) shares she had a pretty uneventful pregnancy, until the end, when she developed gestational hypertension around 34 weeks. Her doctors scheduled an induction for 37 weeks, however, she went into preeclampsia the day of her induction. Hailey shares that her induction failed and she had an emergency c-section. Wyatt was not breathing when he first emerged, but steadily got better after a few minutes. He had to spend five days in the NICU due to respiratory distress. Hailey describes the next 4.5 months as pure bliss filled with Mommy & Me classes and new adventures. All of that changed on May 3, 2023 when Hailey received a call from daycare that changed her life forever. Wyatt was unresponsive after his nap. EMT's and donors tried to resuscitate him but were never able to bring him back.
