Briana, Sebastian's mom, wanted to have a Newborn Photography Session so that she could look back at these photos and cherish this special time forever. In this blog post she shares her unique pregnancy journey where things became an uphill battle early on. Like many other mothers, Briana had trouble conceiving naturally and weighed multiple options. Even though her choice took a leap of faith, she had made up her mind.
As soon as we heard the first heartbeat my husband and I fell completely in love all over again
"When my husband and I first learned that we were pregnant we were in total shock. After trying for at least a year we thought we probably couldn't get pregnant the 'natural' way. My mother in law suggested we go and see a 'Sobadora' which is like a Hispanic masseuse to give it one last chance before we decide to go through the IVF route.
After meeting with the masseuse, she informed my husband and I that we would be having a little baby boy very soon and to not worry and leave it all in God's hands. I took her comments very lightly as I didn't want to get my hopes up. At this point, my husband and I decided to trust on God's timing and not ours. As one month passed by, I noticed I was 5 days late but I didn't give much interest to it as I've been 7 days late before and my period still came. So my mother suggested I take a pregnancy test as soon as I got home from work before my husband did.
The night of 09/11/2019, I took a pregnancy test and sure enough it was positive. I immediately cried for joy and body was in complete shock that it finally happened. After finding out I was pregnant, I quickly went to the store and bought 4 other tests just to make sure it all read positive. I also bought a baby basket with a stuffed animal and two pacifiers one pink and one blue with a card that read "We are going to be PARENTS!" I placed the basket in the middle of the bed with the items and all 4 pregnancy tests so when my husband got home from work would see it. As soon as my husband got home he noticed I was acting weird so I started to record him as he walked into our bedroom and saw the basket. After he saw the basket, he ran up to me as we both hugged each other and began to cry. We were both in shock, excited and anxious!
The moment I found out I was pregnant, an amount of love came rushing in for my little one. As soon as we heard the first heartbeat my husband and I fell completely in love all over again and our hearts all became in sync with our little one. Fast forward 9 months later we met our beautiful, healthy baby boy named Sebastian during the summer of 2020. Oh my goodness meeting him for the first time was more than a dream come true. Our little family is now complete as our little Sebastian was the missing piece of our hearts."
