EMILY - I’m a 22 year old with a two year old son. He is my world and I love him to death. I’m from North Carolina and would consider myself a southern belle 😂. I’ve been dating the most amazing guy for over four years now and my life couldn’t be better. I hope this blog will help inspire you ladies and help you realize that you are not alone in the struggles of pregnancy. Every pregnancy is different but the struggles are real. We as ladies, should rally around and support each other through the joyous time as our bodies go through the most amazing changes
XENA - New mom at the age of 22. I was dating my boyfriend Dean for 8 months when we found out I was pregnant. It was such a nerve-wracking moment when I found out (at 3AM) and had to wait till he woke up to tell him. I had a copper IUD in and was that 0.01% that got pregnant. We are beyond blessed to have her in our lives. I just moved to Alberta, Canada mid February, but am born and raised in British Columbia. Currently a stay at home mom to my newborn. I experienced a lot while going through labor. My daughter was breech, had an unplanned c-section where they put me under, and am now experiencing her being jaundice. I hope you enjoy my bit of outlook on our topics, and can get a few good laughs or moments where you can relate. Beyond excited to see where this journey takes me
DANI - Soon-to-be mom here. I am 21 years old. I have been with my fiance for a little over a year when I found out I was pregnant. We decided to try to get pregnant after I had an ovarian cyst that burst and found out, I may have only a small window of time to get pregnant if they get worse. We also decided to try because Justin is 29 years old and always said he wanted to be a father before he turned 30. The due date of our son is August 20, exactly a month before he turns 30. We had tried for a few months, me following my ovulation cycle like a hawk, but had no luck. We finally thought that it just wasn't our time to get pregnant, and my fear of never getting pregnant was already coming true. We gave up and didn't focus on trying anymore. I originally had the Nexplanon in my arm so my time of the month wasn't consistent. After missing my period for a week, Justin and I began to joke around about being pregnant but never came across our minds that it might actually be true. After two weeks, I finally went and got a pregnancy test more to settle the jokes that my friends had started making. I was so used to seeing negative that I nearly passed out seeing it was actually positive. I went and got another pregnancy test thinking it had to be a false positive and that one came back just as positive as the first one. It was two days after Christmas so I told Justin that I had a present that was delivered early for him to open when he got home from work. He opened it, he was excited, and the rest has just been golden since
KATIE - 27 year old first time Mommy! My boyfriend and I have been together for about two years. We are crazy for one another and have been talking about marriage and babies from almost the very beginning of our relationship. We planned on waiting one more year before trying to get pregnant. We were afraid; he has toddler twins and we just wanted more time with them. But I found out I was pregnant early November 2017. I was ecstatic when I saw positive on three pregnancy tests. I fell to the floor crying, and then the nerves set in. I was genuinely afraid to tell him. I decided to use my typical humor to lighten the mood; I pulled a bun out of the pantry and put a sign on it, “Bun in the Oven” and put it in the oven. I took a jar of prego pasta sauce and covered the label to say “prego, we are” and left it in the fridge. When he came home from work he was in the shower and I was in the bathroom, we were just chatting away. Out of the blue he says, “You haven’t started your period. Do we need to take a pregnancy test?” I didn’t say a word. He ripped open the shower curtain and stared at me. I told him I was pregnant. He jumped out and held me in his arms and was so happy. This has been the most shocking, anxiety producing, heartwarming, exciting thing to ever happen. I am so beyond excited to be over halfway done with this pregnancy and embark on this journey. I am hoping to spend this time cherishing the beauty of pregnancy and the journey of becoming a mom. I cannot wait to meet our baby boy.
