Katie and Brandon are very excited about having their baby girl, however she came a lot earlier than anticipated. Baby Baela was born 4/14/25 via C-Section at 25 weeks and 6 days. She will be in the NICU for an extended period of time due to being born so prematurely. Both parents are having to take time off of work to be with her in the NICU. Dad will be returning to work shortly, but mom is off work and will be staying near the hospital to be with baby Baela in the NICU for the duration of her stay. Your support will greatly help the family with hotel costs, gas, and daily living skills.
