After many weeks of anticipation, I’m thrilled to share some wonderful news — our family is growing! Baby “A” will be joining us in August, and this new chapter is all thanks to the support of MakeAmom. Following our heartbreaking miscarriage, I was determined not to let that experience dictate our future. The early weeks of this pregnancy were filled with anxiety as I waited for any sign of trouble. However, during our 20-week ultrasound, we were overjoyed to see our little one’s perfect face and active limbs!
UPDATE
I wanted to provide an update on this remarkable journey. One year after our loss, on the very same date, July 26, we welcomed our rainbow baby, “A.” Arriving three weeks early, he surprised us by coming into the world with his cord wrapped around his neck four times. The medical team said we were incredibly fortunate, and I couldn’t help but feel that our angel baby was watching over us. It’s hard to believe that one of the most painful days of our lives transformed into such a moment of pure joy!
So, without further ado, let me introduce you to our perfect little miracle, Baby “A”! His moms and big brother are absolutely smitten. He is undoubtedly made with love! We are immensely grateful to the team at MakeAmom for helping turn our dream into a reality; we truly couldn’t have done it without you!
Warmest congratulations to us from the MakeAmom community! Your heartwarming story is a beacon of hope and inspiration for many.
