My pregnancy journey🩷

Since 2021 I’ve dreamed of becoming a mom. In 2022 I found out I was pregnant and miscarried. Proceeded to 2023 I was pregnant twice that year and miscarried both times. I thought the world was against me having a baby. I lost all hope. Until January 1st 2024 I found out I was pregnant again. I finally experienced everything I’ve ever dreamed of. I heard her heartbeat, felt her kick, but when they placed her on me that was the biggest thing I dreamed of. I got my rainbow baby. She’s perfect in every way possible and I’m so glad I’m her mom🩷🌈#momlife #miscarriageawareness #rainbowbaby
