Hello, my name is Morgan and on August 22nd, 2019 we lost our first and only baby. We had been trying for 7 months before we got pregnant. It was the most amazing moment, receiving the phone call that confirmed my HCG levels. We were over the moon! I had my first ultrasound at 6…

This is the story about our beautiful baby girl. It was New Years Eve, 2018 when I saw that positive pregnancy test. I was so happy yet so nervous and worried. It had taken us a year and a half to get to this point with two miscarriages in that time. We were both eager…
