Help a desperate family with NICU baby.

Donation protected
On June 11th while doing laundry my water broke. After a 6 day stay in the hospital which I revived steroids and other medications to help the baby develop faster I went into true labor. On Saturday  June 15th we became a family of 6 and proud parents of a baby boy we named Noah. Noah was born at 28 weeks making him 12 weeks early. He weighed just 2 lbs and 11 Ozs. 

A week before he was born my husband was laid off due to lack of work and problems with the contractor. He was a brick mason.

Today we are struggling, desperate and embarrassed. We are ashamed we got our selves in this situation. Having 3 kids already life has gotten hard. Add in a preemie in the NICU and it's almost unbearable. 

We struggle daily to find money for gas, diapers and simple things like laundry soap and shampoo.  And we recently found out we needed a special kind of car seat. 

The NICU requires a car seat that holds a minimum of a 4 pound baby. On top of needing a car seat. I never thought to stock pile on preemie clothes. I was gathering newborn stuff. Now we need everything all over again except in preemie size. The Drs said we can bring sleepers, hats, onesies to the Hospital, but we don't have any. 

We were not at all prepared and were desperate.  Anything helps even if it's just prayers.
