a little πŸ’œ DK flashback...

I can't believe we almost have a 2 and a half year old 😳

our little rainbow baby 🌈 our first baby together and the one that showed us just what parenting takes 🫠

you brought us closer, tore us apart and put us back together and I am so grateful you chose us to be your parents πŸ’

we are still navigating your big feelings and it is challenging us to face our own which only makes me more grateful foe the lessons you are teaching us and mutually guiding each other through πŸ™πŸ»

you were such and adorable little honkie squish who has grown into an adorable ringlet haired sassypants with a heart of gold and we adore you so much πŸ₯Ή

a year ago...

a year ago yesterday your heart πŸ«€ stopped beating...

I just knew...

a year ago today they said the words no one ever wants to hear...

I just knew...

I went into the scan desperately wanting to be pleasantly surprised but something just felt off...

Then the silence that lasted forever, before...

"I can't find a heartbeat" πŸ’”

It didn't feel real, this is what you hear about but it was really happening and I hadn't really had a chance yet to accept I was even pregnant and then as soon as you were there...you were gone...

then came 2 weeks of agony waiting for nature to do it's thing and when that didn't happen and they spoke of scary words like sepsis...

that visit to hospital was one of the hardest things I have had to face...

we weren't quite ready for another baby and yet the loss of one changed everything...

those two pink lines caught us off guard but we tried to embrace what was given to us and excitedly told people early, something told me to tell people sooner than normal...

so glad we did because then the worst happened and it made it a little lighter to cope with...

we went from "how are we going to manage a 2 year old and a baby?"...

to "maybe we were ready...should we try again"...

after a little time to process...those two pink lines appeared again...

being pregnant again came with a rollercoaster of emotions...

especially when we had to go in for a checkup in the same section of the hospital as the one where they gave me the medication to speed nature along last time...

it felt like a sad and happy full circle moment...

having a baby due the same month that your last one passed away is the cruelest and sweetest thing to experience...

but something about it feels like it was you trying to help me heal...

I know you came in and out of our life to show us we were ready and that together we can face anything...

I will be forever grateful for that...

I will love you forever Felphi and in another lifetime I will give you a squeezy cuddle...

thank you for choosing me and giving me the strength to face another pregancy and baby 🌸🩷 taken in Adelaide, South Australia by @pamelastarie

it may have taken a little longer than I had always wanted but my dream of a little family got there in the end and I am forever grateful I never gave up on that and remained hopeful even when it didn't seem like the odds were in my favour πŸ₯Ή

DK you are simply the light of our lives, you were my first child after the loss of a baby, my little rainbow 🌈 you taught me how strong I am, how brave I can be, how much I was born to be a mum and showed me all my flaws and triggers and you have loved me anyway 😭 I will never be able to express the love I have for you there just aren't enough words, I am so incredibly proud of you and the kind fierce little human you are becoming. No matter how testing it is at times 🫠 your soul is so pure and it is my absolute pleasure guiding you through this lifetime πŸ©΅πŸ’œ

@bradweeeeee you gave me that, you gave me the part of my heart that always felt out of reach and made me whole again, I will never be able to thank you enough for that. Despite our ups and downs cause goodness me when they say does the first 2 years after a baby test a relationship do they mean it πŸ˜…πŸ˜¬ you have remained fierce in your loyalty to continue what we started and I am constantly reminded I picked the right person to do life with 🧑🩡

I love you all ❀️ taken in Fleurieu Peninsula by @pamelastarie

trying to constantly remind myself in this challenging season of life that I will never again have this moment, just you and I, no siblings, no other voices, no one you have to share my time and your things with 😱

being pregnant with a toddler is rough, being pregnant with a very spirited toddler is at times completely draining physically and mentally and most days I reach a point where I want to hide in the wardrobe with a block of chocolate and noise cancelling headphones 😬

but we will never have this again, so when I have the strength I really really try to enjoy our little bubble before it bursts because I know how precious this is and how much you really need to feel supported by me before everything changes πŸ₯Ί

my patience is running low compared to the past because my whole brain is trying to rewire to focus on a baby that is still brewing but my heart is also aching for you and how much of a change this will all be for you, worrying how you will cope and adjust πŸ˜΅β€πŸ’«

so quiet moments watching you smoosh sea creatures into playdoh stop me in my tracks and allow me a moment to just pause and appreciate how little you still are, how sweet your heart is underneath the tantrums and how I need to protect you at all costs... including at times from myself and my exhaustion πŸ’

ngl there are days when I question why on earth I wanted kids πŸ˜… when they are so overstimulating for my poor already overstimulated brain but it is moments like this, or in the morning when you come open the door and say "Mummeeee open Nenni's door open Mummy Daddys door hello Mummeeee!" that I go ahhh...that's why πŸ₯Ή

I love you so much DK you are already the best big sibling and this baby is so lucky to have you to guide and protect them, I promise to continue to teach you how to do that while finding the balance to adore you and shower you with the attention you deserve to keep having πŸ’œ another little you can only make our world brighter πŸ’š taken in Adelaide, South Australia by @pamelastarie
