Worth the Wait

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…
