How is Ashley Stock’s newborn daughter doing in the NICU? Influencer reflects on new birth after losing daughter Stevie

Social media influencer Ashley Stock, known as Little Miss Momma, welcomed her daughter Benny May Stock on June 30 through surrogacy. She shared the news on Instagram on July 1, posting a video of herself admiring Benny with the caption:

"She’s beautiful and fierce and cuddly and tiny and magical and smells like heaven and we are overwhelmed with love! Nicole did amazing!"

The caption further continued with the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) details:

"Benny will be in the NICU for likely at least a week with jaundice and she potentially inherited a blood disorder that Ben also has. But she’s doing great and is being taken care of by the most amazing team of nurses and doctors ❤️"

While fans were curious to know why she was shifted to the NICU, the influencer soon revealed the reason through one of the photos on her Instagram post that read,

"Benny was born at 36 weeks with ABO incompatibility and also likely has hereditary spherocytosis—both of these caused a VERY high bilirubin at birth, which got her a ticket to the NICU."

Ashley Stock further showed her appreciation for the nurses in the caption by writing:

"Grateful ✨ i keep assuring our amazing nurses that my endless spontaneous tears are tears of joy and gratitude 🥰 gratitude for sweet Benny May and all the love and care she’s being showered with…and overflowing gratitude for Nicole for bringing Benny into the world for our family ✨"

From her words, it’s clear that baby Benny is receiving the care she needs and is on a path to recovery.

What happened to Ashley Stock's daughter Stevie?

Ashley Stock and her husband, Ben Stock, welcomed their daughter Stevie in 2017. She was later diagnosed with diffuse intrinsic pontine glioma (DIPG), a type of brain tumor, and passed away shortly after her third birthday. The news was shared then on Ashley Stock's social media account, where she wrote,

"At 1:05pm on May 27th, Stevie took her final breath in our arms. There have been many miracles and countless God moments that I’ll put into words when my heart has strength. For now, I’m overwhelmed with relief that she’s at peace but I’m also feeling crushed by a pain so intense i can’t put it into words."

The couple also shares two sons, Sawyer and Wesley. The news of Benny May’s arrival has come as a joyful moment for fans, especially after the family's earlier heartbreak. Many also congratulated Ashley and her husband on their growing family.
