Our adorable, beautiful daughter, Ivy, was born last week on December 8th. After around 12 hours of labor, she came into the world with a vengeance. Pregnancy was exhausting and delivery even more so (and painful) but it was worth it for me personally because I have my baby girl now.

My husband was a godsend throughout this entire process and my doula, Jordan, gave me the confidence and stability I needed to get through the last leg of pushing as my epidural wore off.

Life has been quite the adjustment but in the best way possible. I am so excited to be a mom and can’t wait to see what the future has to hold for our family.
