Sisterhood⁣
⁣
may you girls steal each other clothes, play endless hours with barbies, learn from each other, support each other, be there for each other for the inevitable breakups and as teenagers make fun of how your “loud” “uncool” mama is drive y’all nuts.

My son has had a huge appreciation for me and how difficult my pregnancies are. ⁣
⁣
We’ve had conversations on how each pregnancy has been different. The changes my body goes through to grow his new best friend. The undertaking I will have to endure to bring this sweet baby boy earth side. ⁣
⁣
Having honest (but of course staying within their maturity levels) with ALL of my children has helped them realized, I hope the raw, honest, beauty in motherhood and pregnancy. ⁣
⁣
I've told my children that pregnancy has been the hardest part of my journey in motherhood to date and yet I've continued to do it time and time again because it has been so rewarding. ⁣
⁣
I've learned so much about myself and how strong I truly am. It's all because of them.

Just 54 years ago our marriage would be illegal. ⁣
⁣
No wedding, no marriage, no baby on the way, no adoption. At least not publicly anyway. ⁣
⁣
I know 54 years isn’t as long ago as it may seem, especially when I continue to get comments, private messages of how wrong our marriage is.⁣
⁣
I know 54 years isn’t as long ago as it may seem when I think about how there are still people who are alive today who were outraged by the Supreme Court decision on June 12, 1967. ⁣
⁣
I will be forever grateful for the sacrifices Mildred and Richard Loving made for families like ours. I can’t imagine the trials their marriage and what their family had to go through daily. ⁣
⁣
Loving Day will always be a day I will cherish. ⁣

Pregnancy After Loss ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I often think about the women who decide not to have children after a loss and the women who do decide to try again. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I’ve been on both sides. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
I remember how traumatizing my first miscarriage was and how when faced with the question of whether or not we wanted more children. At that moment in my life… I WAS DONE. I didn’t think I could go through that trauma again. I couldn’t understand women who did go through a loss and continued to make the decision to have more children. Then with time and therapy, I did eventually realize that I was ready to try again.⁣⁣
⁣⁣
Then after my second miscarriage I was determined to try again, it was less traumatic and I had this immediate pull to try again. But I could have just as easily realized it wasn’t for me. That the chance of going through that trauma again wasn’t for me and that would’ve been okay too. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
The decision that women make to continue growing their family after a loss is so personal and based on so many factors that we should never judge or think we know better on what they should or shouldn’t do with their bodies.⁣
⁣
The women who decide to try again are strong but the women who decide NOT to try again are just as strong.

Make Your Predictions ⁣
⁣
I’m not huge on due dates, they can bring a lot of disappointment and mental stress to mothers. ⁣
⁣
You’ve probably noticed I’ve never publicly stated my due date, that has been on purpose. Growing this sweet baby boy and having a healthy pregnancy has been my priority. Not focusing on his due date. ⁣
⁣
The baby will come he will come, I have no control over that. So I will continue to grow this baby, have the most healthy pregnancy to the best of my ability and enjoy the last leg of my pregnancy. ⁣

#Ad Don’t let this picture fool you! I’m only

#Ad Don’t let this picture fool you! I’m only helping out with the laundry to see all freshly washed newborn clothes! Drue is the one who usually does the laundry in this household. ⁣
⁣
Laundry can be a daunting task with four kids and another one on the way. That’s why it’s important to choose the right detergent! Since Drue does the laundry, he likes to pre-treat with Arm & Hammer Odor Blaster Liquid Detergent, and I typically use Arm & Hammer Plus OxiClean With Odor Blasters 5-in-1 Power Pak formula since it’s an all-in-one cleaning product with 5 powerful benefits, including odor elimination. Both @armandhammerlaundry products help Drue and I make sure the dirt and stains are gone the first time they are washed. ⁣

My daughter isn’t lucky. She shouldn’t be pressured by people to feel grateful to have parents like Drue and I. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
She would have been lucky to continue to be with her biological parents who love her dearly even to this day. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
She would have been lucky to not have to deal with the trauma of losing her parents and being separated from her siblings. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
She would have been lucky to not have to know what’s it’s like to have one day your life be fine to the next not know where or who she would be living with. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
She would have been lucky to not have triggers that remind her of her past that can send her spirialing into a bad day or week. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
While I as her mother am so lucky, grateful and honored to be her mother and I get to guide her through this life. I choose to be her mother, while my daughter had no choice in what happened to her. She will have to deal with the trauma of what happened to her all her life. ⁣⁣
⁣⁣
How is that lucky?
