Sabrina Hawkes had a gut feeling that something was wrong with her pregnancy. Her first child had been big. This one was small and growing slowly. At a routine appointment only 27 weeks into her pregnancy, she learned any hope of survival for her baby meant he needed to be born that day at Mount Sinai Hospital. Sinai Health’s NICU became their second home.
