A year ago I started this blog to share my story about our struggle to get and stay pregnant. One year ago. And today I’m writing this with a 7 week old healthy baby girl in my lap. This year has been the most rewarding ever. I honestly wasn’t sure if I would ever be…

The Ugly Truth
On my last blog, I shared the fact that I haven’t been writing much about this pregnancy because, well, it basically sucks. But, many of you reached out to me and told me to share away and not feel the guilt I was feeling for complaining about something I am eternally grateful for. So here…
The Road Isn’t Easy, But It’s Worth It.
I’ve been having a difficult time writing lately. I began this blog to share my struggles with infertility and repeated miscarriages in hopes of helping others and letting other women know they aren’t alone. It was so therapeutic for me and I really felt like God led every post I shared with you all. New…
Patience During Your Season of Waiting
When I found out I was pregnant again, I bought a pregnancy devotional called Waiting in Wonder by Catherine Claire Larson. I have loved it from the first day I started reading it. It gives a little devotional then has two questions or prompts for you to write in, which I think will be awesome…
Be Still
Tomorrow I have my 4D Anatomy scan and because I’m me, I’m nervous. When you’ve suffered three miscarriages, every appt, I’m fearing those dreadful words. “There’s no heartbeat.” I am 18 weeks and have had nothing but good reports thus far. So I know the devil is trying to put fear in my mind to…
The Bigger Your Storm, the Brighter Your Rainbow.
As I sit here getting closer and closer to week 14, 15, 16 etc. I am beyond joyful and thankful for so many things. Obviously, number one being this pregnancy and that I’ve made it past my last 3 miscarriage weeks. Eight, Ten, and Twelve. But, I am also thankful for the journey I took…
His Perfect Timing
My precious daughter. She is about to turn four in a couple of months and I can’t believe how much she’s grown. How much she’s learned. How different our lives are because of this amazing little creature God blessed me with. She has a kind and caring heart. She’s a much better child than I…
Ready for Battle
Week 10. Test week. Since in the “baby making world” I’m considered old (cringe) for having a baby, there are a multitude of test and procedures that have to be done that didn’t when I had N almost four years ago. I’m only 36. But, having a baby after 35 is considered high risk. And…
A Week at a Time
Yesterday, I hit the 9 week mark. Each day, and especially week, that goes by I get more and more excited. When you’ve had three miscarriages, each one tends to reply in your mind on a daily basis and it’s hard to stop and be joyful and excited about a pregnancy that may not last. …
Thy Will Be Done
Morning sickness. Week 6 hit me like a ton of bricks. In all 5 of my pregnancies, the sickness has been the worst this go round. But, the past few days, it’s really lightened up a bit. I’ve felt more like myself than I have in a couple weeks and I’ve been able to walk…
