Join us for a birth story that you won't want to miss!

Chess' had spent months experiencing intense digestive issues, that they thought was severe IBS. Chess had multiple doctors appointments where their provider palpated their stomach and conducted urine and blood pregnancy tests.

Chess was at work on September 28th when they started feeling extreme digestive upset every 15-20 minutes. They worked out their shift and the next day things intensified more. Chess was getting ready to go shopping with their roommate, when they experienced what they thought to be urinary incontinence. They cleaned up the mess, got in the bath, and endured stomach and back pain that was coming more frequently as time passed.

Chess was sitting on the toilet, talking on the phone with their mom asking advice on going to the emergency room, when suddenly they gave birth to a baby.

Listen in on Tuesday to hear the rest of Chess and baby Caspian's story!

Chess, Caspian, and their family are navigating a NICU stay, unexpected time off work, and of course hospital bills. If you are able to help support them monetarily through this time, please visit the link in our bio to their gofundme! Every little bit helps!

I'm Chess's mom. After 23 years as an L&D nurse + 5 years as a NICU nurse, I thought I'd seen it all. My child is a juggernaut. Fabulous and shouldering so much! They're amazing!
