Surprise! I’m 6 months pregnant
Little Gold Miner coming April 2026 💙
And yes this is absolutely why I disappeared off the face of the planet for the past 6 months and is indeed what was going on with my hospitalization and sick leave I was oh so ominous about🥲
Turns out I was hospitalized at just 6 weeks pregnant for having HG (hyperemesis gravidarum)🫠
To be honest it completely sucked all the joy out of what is otherwise supposed to be such a happy, joyful, exciting time. And please do not think I’m ungrateful. However, the last 6 months have been some of the hardest I’ve ever had to go through in my entire life.
(And tbh some people were surprisingly pretty dismissive and less than supportive)
It was the first time in my life I ever truly experienced what I now understand to be true deep depression. Not to mention feeling like I was living in my own personal hell. If I wasn’t living on th bathroom floor non-stop vomiting, I was crying my eyes out in bed through the unbearable nausea. And I say that as someone who has lived with a chronic illness and chronic pain for 13 years.
That all being said, I’m very excited to now be sharing the news💙
I’m fortunate to have turned a corner recently, to the point I’ve been able to work again. I’m still nauseas, but truckin through. And for now I’m just grateful everyday for how far I’ve come in comparison to the journey I’ve been on.
BIG shoutout and endless gratitude to all my clients who were incredibly supportive and understanding, even when it was still so early that I wasn’t ready to share why exactly I was so ill.. No questions asked, you just extended me so much love, grace and support and I couldn’t be more grateful😭🥹🫶
Also (obviously) a huge shoutout to my support system, aka mostly my husband, who got me/us through the last 6 months.
And to all those who found out behind the scenes along the way and have continued to check in on me and offer me your love and support and help, month after month, thank you doesn’t feel strong enough. It’s been incredibly isolating and I couldn’t be more grateful🥺🥺
Cheers to our future lil gold miner 💙
