My girl is due in 7 weeks, and we've been trying for 8 years, 3 losses, a million treatments, tears, etc. Thank you for vlogging this

The way you interweaved the end point of pregnancy with the darker moments of infertility really just shows how intense this journey is. Your videos have shown every emotion and I'm so happy for you that now you get to be joyous with your little one. So thankful for your raw honesty along the way and even more thankful you received your precious daughter.
This needed a warning for tears 😂 I have followed your journey since the beginning and have witnessed every loss and heartbreak you and tim have suffered. All of that pain did not deter you but drove you to continue your journey and what a wonderful ending to witness. You and Tim deserve this. Enjoy every second and a massive congratulations to you both. ❤❤❤

She is adorable! The clip where Tim was holding her and crying made me do the ugly cry. It was such a beautiful moment. I pray God wraps your family in his arms and keeps you as safe and happy as you are now. You were the 7th and final lady on my fertility prayer list and now you have all been blessed with a little angel. Time to make a new list..though I rather there was not a reason to, but there is so we will continue to pray for others who need it. You're going to be wonderful parents for little Mabel and one day when she's older maybe show her your journey so she will truly understand how much she was wanted and loved. God Bless

I was doing so well until Tim. Watching the tears and the look of love on his face was magical and then I lost it and the tears came. She is beautiful and so loved. Enjoy every single second of her because you already know how quickly it flys by and how quickly they change. Even the hard times are just a season and before long a new season is here with more changes. ❤️ congratulations. 🌸❤️
Loved by Mom and Dad and people all over the world 💕
Crying tears of joy for you. I’ve been on this journey with you since 2015. Welcome Mabel Dove, your Mommy is a strong warrior.
Welcome beautiful Mabel! She is perfect and you now have a beautiful family ❤ your journey was long and hard but you have your pot of gold at the end of the rainbow ! Congratulations
I saw this moment in 3 separate dreams as far back as your very 1st video. I knew the day would come. Bless you ❤️
I admittedly lost you in the last year. Now I think I know why! I'm absolutely elated for you! I have been following you for many years now and I hardly believe what I'm seeing here! CONGRATULATIONS TO YOU BOTH
I have had 4 of my own, yet nothing brought me to tears like this. Congratulations to you both. Wishing you a lifetime of good health and happiness!
Your face as you held Mabel says it all--like your heart was so full. I cried happy tears seeing you finally get your miracle baby!! Congratulations ❤️
I haven't kept up with my youtube subs for a couple of years due to personal reasons, but seeing this was instant tears. Congrats! Such amazing news to stumble upon this morning. 💕
So many of us came to you years ago for strength and encouragement through infertility, and that’s what you were to us, to me. We’ve sent positive energy, prayers, thoughts and virtually embraced you the best we could in return. Congratulations on this most beautiful blessing of life in this darling baby girl. Sending lots of love from my family to yours ❤️❤️❤️.
