The bridal couple may have to replace revealed some clothing ready, diapers and other products they bought.

JaMichael is currently in the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit, where he is being fed through a feeding tube. Doctors want to regulate their blood sugar due to larger babies tend to have a risk of hypoglycemia.
