I called the online nurse and she had told me I was not in active labor and that they were just Braxton Hicks. I was getting really frustrated with her because I told her I already was dilated the previous week at 3 1/2 cm They were 3 minutes apart for a good hour to an hour and a half before my mom came. Once I got to the hospital, the doctor checked me and said she could feel his head (what I felt in the bath tub)

went home to grab what I needed and there were a lot of things he didn't grab that I wish I had when giving birth, so I really didn't want that to happen again this time around. There are a few things I wouldn't have normally packed, but due to COVID-19, I just didn't want to use some of the hospital items that they provide, so I grabbed my own. * Going home outfit - I grabbed the Blanqi postpartum pants for when I go home as well as my maternity pants just in case on how big my belly still is. Normally people can bring you food and drinks but because of COVID-19, we aren't allowed visitors and not a lot of things are open and accessible so I highly recommend, especially during this time to pack snacks and drinks.

I just found out this week that I will only be allowed one designated visitor during my hospital stay and Zara is not allowed at the hospital. You just never know who might potentially have it, but I am trying to just stay at peace, trust in the Lord and pray. In lighter news, we took these maternity photos a few weeks ago with the amazing Aly. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."Thank you so much for reading and stay safe everyone!Xo,

A lot of you have asked me how my pregnancy has been going and how it’s been in comparison to Zara’s pregnancy. I had googled about bleeding and articles said it’s just your old blood leaving your body and that it’s perfectly okay up until 20 weeks of your pregnancy. ’s appointment, they had told me that they had found a synechiae in my uterus, which is a scar tissue going across my uterus. The baby doesn’t have much space like they normally would so they are curled up in a ball majority of the time and are so tight, that the baby believes that it’s time to come out.
