We are officially halfway there! Halfway done with this pregnancy... halfway to meeting our little baby boy! 20-weeks marks a huge milestone! I feel like milestones, both big and small, are what help us make it through pregnancies after loss. They make our pregnancy feel less overwhelming in the moment. …

We were overjoyed to learn the gender of our little baby earlier this week. But more importantly we are so grateful to know that Baby Clough is perfectly healthy and growing right on track!! To use my high risk doctor's own words, "Your baby is perfect from head to toe!"…
