Oh, baby! The Real Housewives of New Jersey hit the streets this past weekend in support of the March of Dimes, the non-profit working to all babies are born happy and healthy.

RHONJ's Jacqueline Laurita was honorary chairwoman at Sunday's walk at Fairleigh Dickinson University, and tweeted, "Wow! HUGE turnout! Perfect weather! So much fun! Great positive energy! Great people! Today was fun! Thank u all for making today Perfect!XO"

After the birth of her son C.J., Jacqueline experienced five painful miscarriages before successfully giving birth to her second son. "Every step we take today is a step closer 2the day that ALL babies will be born full term &go home healthy and strong!Proud 2b a part of it," she continued tweeting.

Sis-in-law Caroline Manzo and her children were also proud members of "Team Laurita," as well as new 'Wives Kathy Wakile and Melissa Gorga, and Teresa Giudice's daughter Gia. Kathy, a mom of two teens, tweeted, "Special xoxo's to everyone who came out to support @NJMarchofDimes walk for babies !! What a beautiful day!"

Teresa, unfortch, couldn't attend, but did blog, "I'm so sad I couldn't go to the March of Dimes walk in NJ today b/c of my prior commitment in Canada, but I sent Gia in my place. She was so sweet to go for me. I guess they had a 'Kid Idol' competition there, Gia entered it, and won 1st place!"
