So excited to finally be able to share this incredible story with you all. And if you’ve been pregnant before I want to know, how were the first & second trimesters for you? 🌈🤍
Congratulations you guys ,so delighted for you both. God is so good.A baby in heaven and a baby in you on earth. Just look after yourselves and enjoy this precious time time Ashlynne.God bless, thank you Jesus.❤
Congratulations on your little blessing 😊 my first and second trimesters were sort of the same. Everyone says you feel so much better, but I felt pretty much the same. A little nauseous, a few foods sounded good, but overall, it was a sweet time. I definitely feel like there was a difference going into the third trimester though. Definitely get as much sleep throughout.
Praise God for bringing you through almost your whole first trimester without the worries and fears of miscarriage! That is amazing! You looking at the ultrasound and saying "it's beautiful" made me cry right along with you. I just had my 4th baby 3 months ago and those feelings of the amazing new life are still so fresh. I am so excited for you and praying for your pregnancy to go so smoothly and comfortably ❤
I feel like discovery at that stage was a beautiful blessing that worked at removing alot of fears that tend to linger following a miscarriage. Congratulations 🎉🎉🎉 Wishing you a safe pregnancy journey 🙏🏾
Congratulations Ashlynne and Christopher! ❤ Thank you for sharing your journey with us. On a side note, Ashlynne, I appreciate how you always take the time to introduce and close your videos. They never feel rushed or thrown together and they are always so well thought-out. As a result, your videos always have a cosy and calming feel. I just wanted to point that out and thank you for it! Wishing you health and happiness in your second trimester! ❤
Our pregnancy symptoms in the first trimester are so spot on with one another it actually helps me to feel quite relieved! I found out at 4-5 weeks pregnant on Oct. 13th, but I had a dream that I was pregnant so that was my inkling to take a test and it was positive. I have irregular periods so I wouldn't have even thought to take a test since my only real symptoms were fatigue and nauseous when I needed to eat which that one was normal for me even when I wasn't pregnant! God is so good!! I love all of this so much for you and will continue to pray for you, Christopher, and this sweet babe!
Im so so happy for you ❤ your happy tears make me tear up as well. We all prayed for you to get your rainbow baby soon and I like to think that maybe, just maybe that helped a bit. Love you and your growing family so much ❤ all the best for you! Me and my family will continue to pray for yours 🙏
I’m so excited to see baby content from you. I’m hoping you take a minimal approach to it because that just sounds refreshing for baby content. I’m a mom of 3 and done now but I’m happy for you guys 🥺💖
I'm so excited for you! Your first trimester symptoms sound exactly like mine when I was pregnant with my son. I had a huge aversion to scents, and all smells intensified during my pregnancy. That never went away even after having my son 16 years ago. I can't wait for more updates on baby! 🩷
So happy for you🥰🥰 Becoming a mommy the most wonderful experience of my life💕💕 I have 2 sweet baby girls, with my most recent pregnancy, we had twins and lost one early on and it was heartbreaking. So excited for you both!! Congratulations💕💕
Congrats Ashlynne. I recently found out that my brother and sis-in-law are expecting too and they are a couple of weeks behind you in their pregnancy. I can't wait for more updates from you!
I too got pregnant right after a miscarriage and thought I was only 6 weeks when I was actually 10. So wonderful to jump ahead a whole month. I understand completely. Especially nice since I just thought morning sickness started exceptionally early. Like @ 2 weeks. 😂 You would have thought I would have suspected but I didn’t either.
Exactly! I found out later a person is exceptionally fertile after a miscarriage. And I still don’t know really what that means. How is a body exceptionally fertile? Whatever that means I think it’s a wonderful gift/blessing from God. To help us get over a loss so quickly although I realize that is not everyone’s experience. 😢
I know how you feel about going back to the doctor after having a miscarriage, I had a miscarriage with my third pregnancy and I had done went to my first appointment and was supposed to go back in a week for an ultrasound but I had to go to the hospital because I started bleeding and found out I had a miscarriage and had to go to my doctor's office like a few days later because it happened over the weekend and when I went into the office I was so upset and mad because I seen everyone else in there pregnant or some with their newborns, I was upset and mad because I didn't understand why God had done that to me. So when I got pregnant with my next child I was so worried about having another miscarriage but everything went fine. Since my miscarriage I had two more pregnancies. We have 4 boys and of course another child that we never met that is in heaven ( I lost it during my first trimester, early in the pregnancy so I don't know what it was).
#1. Isaiah 66:9 (NCV) In the same way, I will not cause pain without allowing something new to be born,” says the Lord. “If I cause you the pain, I will not stop you from giving birth to your new nation,” says your God.
I am so, so happy for you and Christopher! And what a blessing that you didn’t know you were pregnant until 10 weeks. God was knitting your little one together in secret and keeping you from worrying ❤️
Congratulations! I too miscarried my first pregnancy, at about the same time you did. We have gone on to have 2 successful pregnancies. Wishing you a healthy pregnancy. Enjoy this very special time.
lying here nursing my 3 month old baby, (my second born) while I follow your journey. So cozy. I am SO happy for you and look forward to seeing more of your journey ❤
I like to believe that your babies soul that you lost, played a part in bringing this new soul into your life. That baby you lost is going to watching over you forever. ❤
Lovely news Ashlynne, congratulations to you and Christopher. I am a grandmother and my daughter had to conceive her 1st through IVF. She has now conceived naturally and is a couple of weeks behind you. Despite never having experienced the heartbreak of miscarriage, I remember feeling so anxious in the early days of my own pregnancies and feeling relief as I reached each weekly milestone. In those days we didn't have the wonderful pregnancy apps and advice at our fingertips and we had to rely on books. I feel a little of the same relief each week of my daughter's pregnancy and she gets ultrasound and blood test results. Your honesty and openness about all your experiences is a wonderful thing and I am sure you are helping people by posting this information. I look forward to your 2nd and final semester vlogs. Congratulations and best wishes.
Wow such a beautiful gift from the lord and not having to go through that early early stage again ! My mum got pregnant just a couple of weeks after her misscarraige with me then she had years of infertility and go pregnant with my brother and by the time she realized she was 12.5 weeks! I also got pregnant two cycles after my misscarraige finding out i was pregnant with twins ! so many great examples how god heals our body and our hearts ❤
Congratulations!! I went through a miscarriage with my first pregnancy about a month ago. Still physically and emotionally recovering, but hopeful for the future when we can start trying again. I can't wait to follow the rest of your pregnancy
I'm so happy for you. I will be praying for you. I went through the same experience many years ago. I did carry full term after getting pregnant shortly after the miscarriage. I gave birth to a 9 lb. baby girl. God bless you.
Your joy is infectious!! This is SO amazing! I actually felt all the nerves, fear and hesitation you were feeling at the very beginning of this vlog. How wonderful that, essentially, you skipped lots of the worrisome weeks. I am jewish, and we are extremely cautious for the first trimester of our pregnancy. The "whew" factor at the beginning of the second trimester is absolutely understood! It's time to enjoy now.
Congratulations 🎉 So happy everything is going well, overall after the miscarriage. After watching your announcement video I’ve already suspected you were super pregnant because you’d already said “it passed a week after we found out” but we watched seconds of your US and he/she already had feet!! I’m always amazed for people like you who not even suspect being pregnant and they were advanced on it. So happy for you little 🌈, your husband, your family and you ❤
I got pregnant very soon after a miscarriage as well! First one was a “blighted ovum”, I felt so duped and disappointed! Now I’m about 9 weeks along :)
Congratulations! My twins are nearly 2 years old. I remember being hungry and sleepy all the time. Didn't have much other symptoms during the whole pregnancy. I don't have very large breasts, but also not very small,, but they didn't grow at all, I just had a little pain during the first trimester. I didn't end up breastfeeding, because it was going to be stressfull with twins, but also, nearly nothing happened, I didn't have any milk supply and I don't know why. I hope you have a great pregnancy. Enjoy this beautiful stage of life. It's going by so fast❤
God is so good! What a blessing to find out so close to your second trimester to keep your worries at bay. So so excited for you! Please keep sharing videos like this. Praying for you momma!
🎉 The cycle right after a miscarriage is very fertile! That's what I heard several times. So amazing and exciting!! I am so happy for you!! I totally get the feeling of being hopeful and excited and terrified at the same time as I had two miscarriages before I was pregnant with my rainbow Baby.❤❤
Beautiful updates!!! It’s amazing, that’s how my babies were conceived… definitely weren’t planned haha, I have three children now and just gave birth 3 months ago. it’s a beautiful journey pregnancy, labour and delivery! Enjoy these weeks of pregnancy it goes by so quickly ☺️ also I never found out the gender of my babies, I always waited until birth to find out, it’s an unforgettable surprise
Congratulations! I got nervous before every appointment, and always felt relieved afterwards that baby was still alive and growing. It's nice when you start feeling the baby move, so you always know that baby is doing well.
Congratulations on making it through the first trimester. Pretty soon you'll feel the baby kicking (feels like gas bubbles at first). So excited for you both!
I'm praying to Jesus you have a wonderful and safe pregnancy and delivery petal. Remember your first baby is in heaven with Jesus. This one will be on earth with you. Its not easy not to worry but all of us will be praying for you darling ❤️ xx
Congrats! I really needed the positive vibes of your videos. After the day I had I just wanna add: to anyone who's ever been a victim of bullying / hate / violence because of their appearance, gender, orientation, race : DO NOT ever let a hateful notion 'there's something wrong with me' sink in. Trust me, it's a recipe for self hatred and compulsive anxieties later on. When we suffer and we need a break, it's only natural to think: maybe if I wasn't 'different', if I was 'normal' I would be accepted. No, haters will always find something else to prey upon. I've always had kinda androgynous look, which was a fuel for bullies when I was growing up. I embraced it, used it to my advantage in my acting / modeling career, I was almost the face of Leon in these new Resident Evil games :)
Awww so happy for you both and it's very exciting...best news ..xx love seeing your baby bump....my daughter had a baby boy seven weeks ago today.... Jasper. X she already has a little girl Amber. X two and half years x
Yay! How exciting! Congrats on being further along!!! Wow I can just see the hand of God all in that, that he knew that you would be so afraid at the beginning of your pregnancy. What an amazing gift to not know until you’re further along!! Praise God!
Super happy for you and Christopher. Congratulations ❤ Wish you a healthy pregnancy! Enjoy the journey. “…an inheritance from Jehovah; the fruit of the womb is a reward.”-Psalm 127:3.
Congratulations ♥️♥️♥️♥️🙏 I feel like God intervened so you wouldn’t have to worry about the first couple of weeks and it went smoothly for you❤ 🙏 Amen
My first trimester with my first and second (coming tomorrow via CS) were the worst parts of my life HAHAHA. I've been praying and I think that it's alright to love your children and hate pregnancy symptoms. We're humans. Then came postpartum, financial problems, and learning I was pregnant with my second at four months postpartum. It was a lot. It's a time that I prayed to God a lot. 🙏
SO happy & excited for you guys!!!🙏🏼🙌🏼 I just had my son in September 🥹 and ooof I had the worst nausea in my first trimester!! Almost constant from week 7 until I entered my second trimester 😆 even crackers and the simplest foods were not my friend! Second trimester was great and I got big fast! Fatigue was intense my whole entire pregnancy. I went from being a very active person to doing the bare minimum once I got pregnant. Very strange to experience but I just told myself to listen to my body🤍 being 7 weeks postpartum now……..man it is such an amazing journey. Our bodies are incredible and giving birth was so empowering. I also had a midwife team like yours :) Wishing you so much love, strength & a wonderful pregnancy!! Grow baby grow 👶🏻 🌱
I was severely sick weeks 8-18. My boy is almost 2 now and i want to say i worried way too much during pregnancy , so try not to :) and prepped for birth too much, when i should have studied about baby sleep;) my lil guy didn’t let me sleep for a year and a half. It was tough, but remember tough times are temporary. ❤❤
Ashlynne, this news is so exciting, and I'm smiling and jumping out of my chair. I'm not in America, but some u tubers I watch are. Alison mcphail and Catherine Elaine. They're pregnant too.❤ God is with you guys
Oh mama!! My daughter lost her first baby at 6 weeks gestation. And she too got pregnant with her rainbow baby about two weeks later! The dr even doubt herself about the timing … like was there even a miscarriage. But sure enough she got pregnant again that quickly. God is so good!
When you hear the heartbeat of your baby for the first time it becomes so real. Whether through loss or life, you love your baby with all your being. I pray that your journey with your baby will be healthy. Stay hopeful and healthy, and hold onto all the beautiful memories you and Chrus are creating. ❤❤❤ I have 2 children. Both pregnancies were overall pretty good. My trinesters went overall the babies grew nicely and I had good labor and deliveries. My daughter was a bit more difficult but she eventually entered the world being healthy. I also went through 2 miscarriages. I lost a bit of blood while expecting with my daughter early on, but my daughter lived and when i experience my second miscarriage, i tend to believe i had one when while expecting with my daughter. So it's uncertain what truly happened, I had another one between the births of my daughter and son. We lost Corey/Corrie at 7 weeks. We gave it a neutral name because we were not sure on the gender. My kids are 18 and 22 now, lol. Time flies, but both kids are healthy and I love having both of them in my life.
Ashlynne, I had a similar initial experience to you. In my first pregnancy, the pregnancy test said I was pregnant but the hcg level was very low, not high enough for the pregnancy to stick. At 7 or 8 weeks, I lost the pregnancy and the doctor told me it was a chemical pregnancy, meaning it was not a viable pregnancy to begin with. The doctor said many people have chemical pregnancies, and before we had early pregnancy detection tests, many women wouldn’t have even known they were pregnant. She told me I should wait two cycles to try again but we tried again immediately and became pregnant the next cycle like you! And now I have two beautiful healthy kids now 7 and 9 ❤
