Any other information you want to share eg. strange birth story/ IVF miracle?Not long after Tillie was born it was noticed she had trouble breathing so she was sent to NICU for tests. It was found she had an infection so needed to stay for 10 days on antibiotics. It was such a scary time for us but she’s happy and healthy now and back home with us.
