My husband and I met when we were just 16 and 17 years old, in 2010. We very quickly became good friends and our relationship blossomed to more, a few years later. We got married in October of 2019 and wanted to wait a couple years before starting a family. We had no idea when we […]
My name is Destiny Segler. I am 32 years old and from Texas. My husband and I have two boys, Carson and Camden and one on the way who is also a boy and due in July. Last year, we were pregnant with a sweet baby boy named Callum. He had beautiful big lips and
In the summer of 2023, my husband left for deployment when I was 24 weeks. His deployment was set to be close to a year long. This was my 4th pregnancy. My other pregnancies I had pre eclampsia 2x and gestational hypertension. I went into this pregnancy expecting to again go earlier because of my
In January 2023, I found out I was 8 weeks pregnant with our son and first born. It was a smooth pregnancy overall with no red flags along the way. Ollie Bear did a lot of traveling while in the womb over his 9-month span of life. He was destined to be a little flower child. We

My husband and I started trying for a baby at the beginning of 2021. We were both healthy and young so infertility wasn’t something that we even considered would be an issue. After a year of trying I went to my OBGYN and a blood test indicated that I had PCOS. Initially we were told
Entering Motherhood My journey to motherhood seemingly began pretty quickly, but the innocence of being a first time mom was taken from me. In January 2021, I was shocked to find out that I was expecting my first baby. I was thrilled but also terrified of the unknown. As the months went on, it continued
‘It’s worked!’ I said to my husband Simon, one cold February morning holding out a white stick for him to see. We both stared at the two lines; one fainter than the other but unmistakably there. ‘I’m pregnant.’ I had not expected to fall pregnant so quickly, for no other reason than I knew it
I got diagnosed with endometriosis in Nov 2022 and I thought I would struggle to conceive but to my surprise I fell pregnant in May 2023. I had a straightforward pregnancy with no complications or concerns until I got up to 39 weeks. I went in for my routine midwife appointment which was on a
