𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 - 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐞𝐞 *𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐬* This Christmas I felt a whirlwind of emotions... I wanted so badly to be happy, excited, have a sense of relief. But instead I felt anxiety, pressure, and was just trying to get through each day. Our first ultrasound was booked for January 6th. The ultrasound was where I found out with my last pregnancy that there was no heart beat. There was no baby. 10 weeks in. The second miscarriage killed me. It took something from me that I never knew was able to leave. It took my hope, it took all my positive energy, it took the best parts of me and it changed me. Since then I...
𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐏𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐓𝐰𝐨 *𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐬* The dreaded two week wait. And if you have been through it, you know. There's no surprise! I'm pregnant! There's no excitement while taking a pregnancy test. It actually turns more into an obsession, anxiety ridden, obsession. You start taking progesterone 3 days after your IUI...and the side effects from progesterone are very similar to pregnancy symptoms. So when asked "how are you feeling?" You never know how to answer. I had pre planned my disappointment this time around. I knew I would find out if it was positive/negative exactly 1 week before Christmas. And in the back of my mind, I knew no matter what I am feeling I have...
*𝐓𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐖𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠* 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐠𝐧𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐲 𝐚𝐟𝐭𝐞𝐫 𝐥𝐨𝐬𝐬.... My story part one. It's taken me a while to actually talk about this pregnancy, how it happened... Last year we experienced not one, but two miscarriages. I knew it was time to head back to the fertility clinic that helped me conceive my two peanuts. We decided to stick to the same plan we did with both boys. Hormones, Induce Ovulation, IUI Procedure. I went in with high hopes, but month after month.. my positive energy was draining. In October after our 5th IUI I saw two lines on a pregnancy test. Only to find out after two rounds of blood work and one week, that it was a chemical pregnancy and not valid....

I started this business with a newborn and a dream...
Many of you know my more recent fertility journey, but the one that made me a mama was just as hard.
From the moment he was born I knew what I wanted. I wanted to be a stay at home mom, and maybe make some extra money to help with groceries.
Little did we know...we would be here now.
To The Moon And Back was created because that's how far I would go,
From where I started to where I am now.
Two beautiful babies that I would go To The Moon And Back for....again and again...and hopefully, one day.... again....
Every Rose Has It's Thorn
We went a bit out of our comfort zone with this one!
And we are loving how it turned out with the neon pink crews!
