I'm finally excited to announce that I am pregnant!!!! My rainbow is 14 weeks today 😍

After 18 months of not trying not preventing, we found out last September that we were expecting. Unfortunately, just before 9 weeks I suffered a miscarriage (likely a blighted ovum). We never made it to the first ultrasound and to make the sting worse, the baby was due this Mother's Day. We decided after we lost it that we really did want to commit to ttc. 

My January cycle was abnormally long and I had no idea if I ovulated that cycle since my blood work said I had low progesterone. So, I had no clue when to expect my period. I took 3 pregnancy tests that month, until finally the last one on 2/25 showed positive! The negative tests helped better estimate my due date, which is 11/3, just 2 days after hubby's birthday 💞

Only a few know about the miscarriage and those same few know about this little bean. I am an anxious person and even more so after what we've been through. I'm hoping my nerves settle a little bit once the baby is moving and I can feel it everyday. Right now I am only reassured at ultrasound and doc appts.

Next month we plan on having a big birthday party for me with a surprise announcement and I cannot wait!

Thanks for listening to me ramble. More importantly thanks for being such an amazing and supportive community!!! Plenty of happy and sad posts have helped me cope with our loss.

Wishing all you ladies your 🌈

xoxo
