About Jasmine Hill

Jasmine Hill is a 27 year old, soon to be mother of 2, a prematurity awareness advocate, and an entrepreneur who develops natural hair care products to women of all backgrounds.   She has been married to her husband for almost 4 years, and was not expecting to be able to get pregnant due to her stage 4 endometriosis. However she and her husband both received the shock of their lives when they found out they were expecting in Nov of 2018. Little did they they know, their pregnancy would have some issues that could have potentially caused their son to be born premature and spend 108 days in the NICU.   Due to their experience Jasmine's husband, Rodney, has developed a small clothing line to raise awareness about preterm births and prematurity. She currently 7 months pregnant again, due in April.   Sponsor
