I am a nurse at an OBGYN office and one of the doctors I work with always tells worried pregnant women that it’s just a sign of being a good parent. You’re already worrying about the well-being of your child, which is a normal thing and a sign of a great parent!❤️
I used to do the same thing! My mom would look at me like I was insane. Do you know this person, is she a friend? Well, not really... So why are you so excited? Cause it's kinda like a tv show, but reality and i care about her. Alrighty then spud. 😅
Haha I had the same conversation with my mum. I just want everything to go okay for Leanne and grant, like I don’t even know these people but I’m so so happy for them.
I stopped telling my mom because I cried telling her too much. My parents had a hard time getting pregnant with me...Like it took 10 years and they almost adopted a little girl.
Breaks my heart that people try to make you feel bad for being excited so early on in your pregnancy. It’s ok to excited, no matter what stage you’re at! I’m happy for and with you girl! 🤍
Also my husband asked me how I found you on RUclips (We’ve been together for 5 years) and I said I don’t remember it was 10 years ago so it was probably some sort of tutorial and he goes - “TEN YEARS?! You’ve been watching her for that long?!” I was like, yeah buddy! She’s an OG 😂❤️
I want to be like you whenever I become a mom. Your little baby is going to be blessed a thousand times over to have a mom as cool and kind as you are! Prayers and cookies for continued health!
I’m so sorry you’re getting nasty messages 😢 you’re allowed to be as happy as you want during this time! Ignore them!!! I’m beyond happy for you and Grant ❤️😊
Leigh Ann, with all that is going on in the world it is beyond amazing that 2 people like you and Grant are bringing a child into the world. It is beyond hopeful. Take care of each other. Love from Alabama.
The first time I got gas pains we were in a hotel room the day before going to Hawaii and I almost made my husband take me to the ER bc I was convinced something was wrong...then I farted and I BALLED my eyes out bc the pain went away and I was so relieved. All of that embarrassment to say being nervous about pains is so so normal ❤️ thank you for sharing your life with us, it has been so exciting watching for so long to finally see all this coming true for you ❤️
Oh I have done something like this! We were on a fairly long road rip when I was very early pregnant, and my insides ran at hyper speed when I was pregnant from the hormones, so I needed to use the toilet urgently, but the pain from the abdominal cramping had me convinced I was having a miscarriage. Needless to say I used the loo and everything returned to normal.
As much as you know rationally that spotting etc is totally normal, I’m sure it was still stressful and scary for you. I’m so glad everything was okay; it was so exciting to see little baby bean on your scan photo! Praying for a smooth pregnancy for you and sending love to you all x x x
This is so true! I have had 6 losses and have 3 living babies. I spotted in 2 of my healthy pregnancies so no matter how many times I was told it was "normal", I could never get over the anxiety. Pregnancy is so amazing but so scary! Especially when you're aware of all that can go wrong. Ignorance is bliss, as they say.
You show so much empathy for the healthcare workers, even when you're feeling extra stressed out. (We know how incredibly difficult healthcare work is right now.) I can't imagine how upset I'd be if I was in your shoes, so that's impressive that you remained calm and kind! Good mama skills already!
I am so excited for your family! A piece of baby advice I wish I was given is *don't over buy*. I used a quarter of what was purchased and what baby did use, he grew out of within months. A small fortune worth of baby supplies was donated in his first year of life.
I cried my eyes out at my 8 week scan because I was so convinced they’d say there was nothing in there. To see a babyish shaped blob with a tiny heartbeat for the first time is the most unreal feeling. SO HAPPY FOR YOU
I'd join in but I'm not even 2 weeks postpartum... healing from a c-section and a blood clot as a complication from said c-section. But I'll stand back and offer emotional support and yell obscenities hahaha.
Awwww the ultrasound of your little chocolate chip 🍪🍪!!! So excited for you and so glad that you’re savoring every moment of your journey regardless off the risks. Can’t believe you already heard the heartbeat 💓
Thank you for not clickbating your pregnancy. I find the way you have shared your journey to becoming a mom so refreshing to see! Also, thank you for sharing so much. It is honestly such a wealth of knowledge, and makes people who deal with infertility feel a little less alone!
Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us. Most people wouldn't talk so openly about everything and it's so lovely that you are being open about the things that happen (and can happen) when trying for a baby. Most people only talk about the good stuff and I feel like as a woman it gives you such a distorted view about what's "normal". After watching you for nearly a decade I feel like I know your beautiful family! Always praying for you guys! ❤️🙏
I am 7 weeks 3 days and it sounds like we are having the SAME experience, I had the same symptoms and same conversation with the nurse. I was at 6 weeks exactly when it happened and I got to see the baby early and see the heart beat 🥰 eating cookies for us both!

Leigh Ann I have been following you for probably 8-9 years now. For you to share this information is huge, all of it! I personally could not be happier for you guys and feel so invested in your life! Of course I cried with your pregnancy test video, bawled. I just wanna say, shame on those people who tell you it's too early! It is an honor to be on this journey with you.
First vlog in months that I haven't cried because of varying degrees of emotion. I did however, yell “BOOTS! WHO DOESNT KNOW ABOUT GRANTS BOOT LOVE? I MEAN COME ON NOW” so loud I woke up my cat. Pregnancy tired is a whole other level. I used to fall asleep everywhere. It's like creating a human narcolepsy. It's insane. Glad you and the babes are doing well! And Happy birthday to Granteroni on someday this week! We love you guys!
Leigh Ann, I cannot imagine the rollercoaster of emotions you and Grant have endured throughout this experience. I am SO proud of you both and your lil sweet baby! Such a relief to hear your sonogram tech was comforting to you. I'm sure having a provider who shows empathy and understanding makes a world of difference. Sending lots of love!
I can’t get over just how classy you are Leigh Ann. Through all that you’ve battled over the years I’ve watched you, you have never failed to impress me. You’re such a good egg. 🖤🖤
Thanks for not having a click bait title. We ( subs ) care so much about you, Grant, Luna and baby on board and for you not to manipulate ( click bait title ) your fans shows real character. Baby is adorable. ❄️☀️🌵💕🙏
You honestly are already a wonderful momma and grant is a wonderful father!! I’m wishing you guys lots of love and joy!!! You both have every right to be super excited being pregnant and having a baby is a blessing! Congratulations once again 💖💖💖
I’ve watched you forever And knowing you’re pregnant now makes me so happy and full of butterflies. You are one of those people that just feels like the most natural friend. And I feel like one of my good friends got her dreams! Baby Aroni!
Leigh Ann, pregnancy will be one of the biggest rollercoaster rides of your life, so hold on and get ready! I have made so many anxious calls and am now on bed rest, but there is so much JOY to be had. I'm so grateful for this blessing in your life!!
Also, I had a subchorionic hematoma very early in my pregnancy, and spotted very heavily for WEEKS. it was terrifying but baby is doing so well now at 34weeks, healthy and strong!
Leanne, I know that there are people who would make pther choices than you have; people who would not share so early everything. But, I think you are being an incredibly brave role model and, dare I use the word, hero. It is lovely of you to share your entire journey. I know there must be women for whom this info and experience is incredibly helpful and comforting, in every way. I find your sharing your fertility and pregnancy journey extremely wonderful. Thank you for being a brave hero.🌺
I used to watch you in the early years of RUclips and then life got busy and I stopped getting on RUclips. Now I’m going through IVF for the first time and I found your videos again. It has been so wonderful to watch your journey and rediscover your channel again. It’s like reacquainting with your bestie from highschool right at the moment you both need a friend. Not only do I feel like I’m going through this with you... I actually am! You are a few steps ahead of us so I have learned through your journey for every milestone in my own. Our first consultation, ordering medicine, appointments and egg retrieval, now we are preparing for our transfer soon. Thank you LeighAnn for sharing your journey! ❤️
Amen! Having been through 6 losses and have 3 living kids, I have learned that you have to be grateful for every single day you get with your baby. Celebrate and cherish every tiny milestone... every ultrasound, kick, even the not-so-fun symptoms haha.
So happy and grateful everything is good with your little bean. It’s totally normal to be nervous and considering what you’ve been through to get here, I’m SURE it’s even harder to not be if anything “out of the ordinary” happens. I feel ever so positive that everything is going to be great snd you will be holding your little bundle before you know it. The great thing is (at least it was for me) when you start to feel them move regularly, it’s so re-assuring. Thank you for sharing this very personal and ever so special journey with us. I’m so happy to be along for the ride! 😊
Happy Birthday Grant - so relieved you’re ok ! I can’t tell you enough - thank you for sharing your journey - I never took the plunge - happily married for 17 years - too late for babies - I’m 47 - but I’m living this with you ❤️
I love watching your videos and have been watching for years, and these pregnancy videos just make my heart warm, thank you and Grant for sharing. You and your family are always in my prayers. Happy Birthday Grant
The snowfall looked so pretty! Thank you sparing me from additional anxiety as I worry about you and yours like you are my family. Sending endless protective blessings to everyone xo
I just love the joy radiating from you and seeing the pure happiness of this place in your journey. Thank you for sharing all of this with us. Wishing you continued blessings and health.
I salute you for documenting all this for us and for yourself, but mostly us. As an influencer I think it’s wonderful that you use your platform to share this extremely private journey. But it happens more than we think and perhaps other woman can relate and seek comfort in your journey. All the best! And here’s to a happy, healthy pregnancy 🥰 I myself am 13 weeks and 3 days pregnant today 👶🏼
I had a subchorionic hematoma at 11 weeks. I literally thought I was miscarrying my miracle baby. Fortunately, babe is fine. He's 8.5 months now and my whole life. ♥️♥️♥️
I had a subchorionic hematoma, which came with a significant amount of bleeding, with both of my munchkins and here they are now a loud and independent 7 year old and a rambunctious 3 year old (4 years old in one month). Thank you for being so open and vulnerable with us and for letting us join you on this journey. I can’t wait to see you become parents. ❤️
I went through similar stuff with both of my pregnancies, never fully got an answer other than the babies were fine. It’s definitely still worrisome even when you hear everything is going fine. It’s your momma instincts. So get ready because it never ends from here on out lol. And thank you for your openness. You deserve to share this beautiful time with who you want regardless of what people think ❤️
I think it's soo awesome that you are sharing ALL of your journey with us! So many women only share after 12 weeks (no judgement at all, that's their choice!) but then we don't hear a lot of women's stories about these early weeks of pregnancy. I love seeing your whole journey, especially the ups and downs of IVF. You're really helping a lot of women! I also have lupus and am worried about getting pregnant one day- so I also appreciate you sharing that part of your journey! Basically, thank you for being so transparent. I'm so sorry you've gotten some nasty messages, you do not deserve that. I'm wishing you all the best with the pregnancy and I cannot wait to watch you and Grant be amazing parents
❤️ everything seems so much scarier when you are pregnant! Hormones don’t help! I dealt with spotting for my pregnancies with both of my children, so I have been in your shoes and felt alllllll the feels. Its so hard, be strong! Thinking of you, hope everything gets easier!
You have every right in the world to be excited about your pregnancy! It’s your right to tell whom ever you want to tell about your blessing ! I had some lite spotting with my second baby about 6 weeks along and she is 5yrs old now.... have a happy pregnancy enjoy every moment it goes by so fast it really does!
Awww I am so relieved for you xx I had 3 miscarriages in the past so I know that stress when you go to the hospital xx I am so glad you got to hear the babies heart beat and got to see the baby , with my little girl I had a scan at 6 weeks she is 8 next week time goes fast xx lots of love to you xx
Every viewer who has been pregnant knows exactly your fears and concerns. We gotchya, my dear. We have all been there and ain't no judging happening! Also, being from Ottawa, Canada, where it snows for literally half the year, I must say I found your delight in the snow refreshing. Glad you got to experience that! Happy baby wishes!!!
I had a subchorionic hematoma at 11 weeks. I had an insane amount of bleeding, I didn’t think there was any way the baby would be ok. But the heartbeat was still there and everything went on to be fine and I never had bleeding again. Stay positive!
I’ve never met you and I never will, but I just wanted to say you are so brave!! I really admire your guts to be honest about this tough process and the resilience you guys always show :) your baby will have a great parents
I am 2 weeks postpartum and your videos are keeping my head in the right place when I am super sleep deprived and feeling a little ungrateful. It's easy to take things for granted so I appreciate these videos so much. They are helping me keep a 'happy heart'! Sending all the joyful vibes your way! ❤
When you gave us a glimpse of the ultrasound as you left the doctors office, I sobbed yessss you got to hear the heartbeat. Mom of four here. And there is nothing that sound so perfect than every time you get to hear that sweet baby growing inside. I am just so excited for you guys. And thank you for bring us along on your journey 😘
I bled profusely my whole first four months of my first pregnancy and was hospitalized for two of those months. Turns out my placenta was low so any trip to the bathroom or cough, straining would bring on a good flow. Nine years later it started again with my second pregnancy and even though I had been there before, I laid on the bathroom floor all of that first day, crying. A year and a few short months after she was born healthy and happy, I was pregnant again and bleeding again. This time I was reassuring everyone that the bleeding was ok, been there before. I simply have low placentas that get juggled around when any muscular movement occurred. I am way past having babies, now I am the wise old Nanny and it is my job to support my kids and extended family. I am sure you will be fine. Congratulations to both of you.
Happy birthday Grant! So happy everything's going well with baby! Everything is nerve wracking in pregnancy - I was nervous before EVERY ultrasound regardless of whether I had something to 'worry' about or not. You worry because you care! it's good to try to not to get yourself worked up, your body does some crazy things during pregnancy, but don't let anyone make you feel badly for worrying!
I had a lot of cramping in the beginning of my pregnancy and they said it was the round ligament pain. That hurt so much so I totally know how you feel being worried about all these new pains! But also, screw what anyone else has to say! YOU DESERVE TO BE HAPPY! This is a happy time! We love you and are so thrilled for you! Sending all the positive thoughts in the world to you and your sweet little fam!
So happy to hear y'all are ok so far. Never let anyone tell you that it's too early to be excited, anxious, or concerned. Every stage of human life and the journey you've been through to get there is important to you and that's what matters. I was blessed with 3 living children out of 6 pregnancies and each one was a gift. God bless!!!
Congratulations LeighAnn!!! I’m sooo jealous that you got snow. I live in Austin but have been visiting with my family in Houston and missed out on the snow!
I've been using the app Expectful through my IVF journey and it's great! My 2 friends that are pregnant recommended it to me. They loved using it throughout their pregnancies. I'm so incredibly happy for you and Grant! I feel so comforted watching your journey while going through my own. You're amazing! Thank you!
My feet “grew” after my last pregnancy. I think they flatten out during pregnant sometimes because of the hormones. Don’t buy any shoes until the baby comes!! I’m so glad every turned out well this week. I pray everyday is keeps going that way!
I'm so glad everything is fine!! I went through 3 years of fertility treatments (PCOS) and when I FINALLY got pregnant, when they did my 7 week ultrasound they warned me that I had a subchorionic hematoma and not to freak out if I had any bleeding. Thankfully I didn't, but would have reacted the same way as you. Sending prayers for a healthy pregnancy ! I'm so happy for you. I understand the whole journey all too well.
I’m happy you got to have an early ultrasound and everything was good. I’m sure it eased your mind. I’m also happy Grant found some boots. What a positive vlog overall. 😁 Just always keep your head up. ♥️
I had 7 kids 6 girls and 1 boy. You are going to be awesome parents and one day soon you will be holding all that fear and worry in your arms ! Blessed as ever !
I had a very straightforward pregnancy, but I needed a bunch of extra ultrasounds. I was so anxious about each one, but I framed it for myself as another bonus opportunity to see my baby. You’re doing great.
I found out Wednesday that I’m pregnant with my first baby and watching you on this journey has been such a wonderful time. Now I get to experience it all with you, albeit in a different way but together nonetheless. I saw today in a Reddit thread that someone said “isn’t it wonderful to know that you are pregnant/birthing a baby at the same time with a group of strong women?” And let me tell you, it is a amazing and I’m loving it.
Congrats! I spotted during the first several months of my pregnancy and weirdly during the time that would have been my period. It was very light spotting. The first month was pretty steady spotting though to the point where I was sure it was my period because it came right after a negative pregnancy test. The next month I received a positive and when I went for my ultrasound I was 4 weeks further along than I thought because of that bleeding and negative test. Let me tell you, I was shocked to already see fingers and toes on that first ultrasound lol.
I had a subchorionic hematoma during my pregnancy, and also freaked out. I am now the mother of a soon to be 1 year old healthy, happy, wonderful baby boy! Pregnancy was definitely scary and full of surprises, but everything will work out for the best 😊 sending love💕
Don't let anyone steal your joy!!!! First pregnancies are very exciting everything is new. I raised three kids and I get it. Thank you for sharing people should remember that you don't have to.
So so so happy to see that you got to hear the baby’s heartbeat! How incredibly exciting! The snow in Dallas was crazy too! Didn’t get much on the North side but the photos were so cool. Eating my cookies like always 💕🍪
I used (and still use) the app What To Expect. It goes week by week for pregnancy and after birth it keeps counting baby’s weeks (age) and tells you what you should be expecting for their age and growth and stuff. I really like it!
I’ve had 5 pregnancies, 4 births. Been through it all! Every different type of situation and different type of birth! (Thank god I’m done!). My last two I had the bleeding / hematoma situation. It’s scary! First time it happened it was just a little that didn’t last too long, last pregnancy it lasted 12 weeks! It was so frustrating, it kept getting bigger and bigger. But my advice from going through it - rest!! Limit how much you are up and about. When they finally put me on modified bed rest, then it healed! So just relax and let your body do it’s thing!
Im Praying for you and this journey. Becoming a momma is the biggest blessing in the world!! This will be the longest 40(ish) weeks of your life. Always trust your gut! Youre going to be a wonderful momma!!! Seeing this made my heart happy I started watching your channel when you were in your first apartment doing brow tutorials❤❤ you have serious mom vibes. God speed.
I had bleeding at 6 weeks with my first son. I was terrified, but he’s sitting right beside me now at 6 years old 🤗 I also had bleeding at 12 weeks. No one ever told me why, but I know that’s so scary! Hang in there!
So glad you were able to get that reassurance. I went bowling at 3 months pregnant and experienced spotting afterward and blamed myself horribly, thinking I'd hurt my unborn child ..i even had to stay overnight in the hospital, but everything checked out ok and that child is now 32 yrs old with a child of his own. It will all be worth it...enjoy and be as happy and excited as u want to be !
Leighann it is your choice how you want to share your pregnancy story don’t read all of the stories that stress you out. everyone’s story is similar but different if you know what I mean . You are doing wonderful and everything is new to you in pregnancy so chart it all Leighann you and Granteronni both deserve this happy journey ❤️❤️
For what it’s worth, I had bleeding and cramping at 9 weeks and today that baby is my big, loud, 6’3” healthy 18 year old son. You’re doing a great job managing the anxiety all this is causing you. It’s so nerve wracking. Hang in there, mama! You’re going to be some of the very best parents to THIS baby! ❤️👍
Glad everything is well! I had spotting and pain throughout my entire pregnancy, nausea so bad I lost too much weight and extremely dehydrated. Everyone paints pregnancy as an amazing thing and it is but, it's also got moments of agony and exhaustion.
Thank you for sharing your good news. It’s a bright spot in these crazy times. I live about two hours south of you. I almost hate to say that we got about 6 inches of snow. It was beautiful. I lived in CO Springs for 15 years. We didn’t get an abundance of snow like most people think. I loved every minute of it. So beautiful and calming.
Seeing your baby on an ultrasound is just the best! I had a large subdural hematoma with my second baby and bled heavily through out my entire pregnancy, it was such an emotional rollercoaster. Mine caused all sorts of complications because of its size (lots of rest shrinks their size) but in the end after arriving 7w prem my baby is now a crazy 10y old! Love following your journey, wishing you both all the very best 💖.

That is truly the most positive and thoughtful response.
Oh that's so sweet.
I told my mom you're pregnant and I cried telling her about your journey and how I'm so honored to have watched it all happen. ❤
I used to do the same thing! My mom would look at me like I was insane. Do you know this person, is she a friend? Well, not really...
So why are you so excited?
Cause it's kinda like a tv show, but reality and i care about her.
Alrighty then spud. 😅
@@lilMissAdoria aww, thats nice! I had to explain it in a similar way to my mom :)
Haha I had the same conversation with my mum. I just want everything to go okay for Leanne and grant, like I don’t even know these people but I’m so so happy for them.
I did the same!!

Same!
Same! I’ve been watching since, “big Texas hair” 10 years ago!
Same!!
ME TOO! I think the very first video was a fishtail braid promptly followed by big texas hair!
Same!! My child is 11 and I started watching when he was a baby
I want to be like you whenever I become a mom. Your little baby is going to be blessed a thousand times over to have a mom as cool and kind as you are! Prayers and cookies for continued health!
I can't believe I just read this comment 😭💙 thank you so much for praying for us!
Agreed with all of this! Yesssss! 🤍🤍🤍
Dang, can she be my mom too? I’m 34 but still waiting for a mom... ESPECIALLY like our girl ♥️
I’m so sorry you’re getting nasty messages 😢 you’re allowed to be as happy as you want during this time! Ignore them!!! I’m beyond happy for you and Grant ❤️😊

You show so much empathy for the healthcare workers, even when you're feeling extra stressed out. (We know how incredibly difficult healthcare work is right now.) I can't imagine how upset I'd be if I was in your shoes, so that's impressive that you remained calm and kind! Good mama skills already!
"I love you more" Like honestly how, Grant? How is he so sweet. So happy for you guys.
I am so excited for your family! A piece of baby advice I wish I was given is *don't over buy*. I used a quarter of what was purchased and what baby did use, he grew out of within months. A small fortune worth of baby supplies was donated in his first year of life.
I cried my eyes out at my 8 week scan because I was so convinced they’d say there was nothing in there. To see a babyish shaped blob with a tiny heartbeat for the first time is the most unreal feeling. SO HAPPY FOR YOU

Leigh Ann I have been following you for probably 8-9 years now. For you to share this information is huge, all of it! I personally could not be happier for you guys and feel so invested in your life! Of course I cried with your pregnancy test video, bawled. I just wanna say, shame on those people who tell you it's too early! It is an honor to be on this journey with you.
First vlog in months that I haven't cried because of varying degrees of emotion. I did however, yell “BOOTS! WHO DOESNT KNOW ABOUT GRANTS BOOT LOVE? I MEAN COME ON NOW” so loud I woke up my cat.
Pregnancy tired is a whole other level. I used to fall asleep everywhere. It's like creating a human narcolepsy. It's insane.
Glad you and the babes are doing well! And Happy birthday to Granteroni on someday this week! We love you guys!

I can’t get over just how classy you are Leigh Ann. Through all that you’ve battled over the years I’ve watched you, you have never failed to impress me. You’re such a good egg. 🖤🖤
Thanks for not having a click bait title. We ( subs ) care so much about you, Grant, Luna and baby on board and for you not to manipulate ( click bait title ) your fans shows real character. Baby is adorable. ❄️☀️🌵💕🙏
You honestly are already a wonderful momma and grant is a wonderful father!! I’m wishing you guys lots of love and joy!!! You both have every right to be super excited being pregnant and having a baby is a blessing! Congratulations once again 💖💖💖
Living in Canada, seing your reaction to snow is just adorable! I am so happy you got some good news and got to ear the heartbeat!
Lol us Texans turn into 5 year olds the first snow we see. Even if it's just a touch of snow.
As you always said, We are your people and we love you...and grant and lucy...and you are right they are just lucky to have met miss Lucy.
I’ve watched you forever
And knowing you’re pregnant now makes me so happy and full of butterflies. You are one of those people that just feels like the most natural friend. And I feel like one of my good friends got her dreams! Baby Aroni!
you are so sweet! thanks so much for being here for me through this crazy rollercoaster! 💙
Leigh Ann, pregnancy will be one of the biggest rollercoaster rides of your life, so hold on and get ready! I have made so many anxious calls and am now on bed rest, but there is so much JOY to be had. I'm so grateful for this blessing in your life!!
Also, I had a subchorionic hematoma very early in my pregnancy, and spotted very heavily for WEEKS. it was terrifying but baby is doing so well now at 34weeks, healthy and strong!
That lil baby bean 😫😭🥰 so small, so mighty, and so loved already!!!
Leanne, I know that there are people who would make pther choices than you have; people who would not share so early everything.
But, I think you are being an incredibly brave role model and, dare I use the word, hero. It is lovely of you to share your entire journey. I know there must be women for whom this info and experience is incredibly helpful and comforting, in every way. I find your sharing your fertility and pregnancy journey extremely wonderful.
Thank you for being a brave hero.🌺
I am beyond happy for your little family. Thank you so much for sharing this journey with us.
You get to be excited and gush about this baby! Y’all worked HARD for this baby and we are all here for the gushing happiness
I’m dying, I totally said boots immediately after you said “if you know grant” 😂
hahahah ily!
Same!!
SAME omg I was so proud of myself
I used to watch you in the early years of RUclips and then life got busy and I stopped getting on RUclips. Now I’m going through IVF for the first time and I found your videos again. It has been so wonderful to watch your journey and rediscover your channel again. It’s like reacquainting with your bestie from highschool right at the moment you both need a friend. Not only do I feel like I’m going through this with you... I actually am! You are a few steps ahead of us so I have learned through your journey for every milestone in my own. Our first consultation, ordering medicine, appointments and egg retrieval, now we are preparing for our transfer soon. Thank you LeighAnn for sharing your journey! ❤️
Hey mama, if there is an option to choose happy & positive, always choose happy & positive. This is a beautiful event, you deserve joy.
Agreed a thousand percent 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽🤍🤍🤍
Amen! Having been through 6 losses and have 3 living kids, I have learned that you have to be grateful for every single day you get with your baby. Celebrate and cherish every tiny milestone... every ultrasound, kick, even the not-so-fun symptoms haha.
So happy and grateful everything is good with your little bean. It’s totally normal to be nervous and considering what you’ve been through to get here, I’m SURE it’s even harder to not be if anything “out of the ordinary” happens. I feel ever so positive that everything is going to be great snd you will be holding your little bundle before you know it. The great thing is (at least it was for me) when you start to feel them move regularly, it’s so re-assuring. Thank you for sharing this very personal and ever so special journey with us. I’m so happy to be along for the ride! 😊
Happy Birthday Grant - so relieved you’re ok ! I can’t tell you enough - thank you for sharing your journey - I never took the plunge - happily married for 17 years - too late for babies - I’m 47 - but I’m living this with you ❤️
I love watching your videos and have been watching for years, and these pregnancy videos just make my heart warm, thank you and Grant for sharing. You and your family are always in my prayers. Happy Birthday Grant
The snowfall looked so pretty!
Thank you sparing me from additional anxiety as I worry about you and yours like you are my family. Sending endless protective blessings to everyone xo
I just love the joy radiating from you and seeing the pure happiness of this place in your journey. Thank you for sharing all of this with us. Wishing you continued blessings and health.
The anxiety before the ultrasounds are the most scary thing. I can totally relate to this.
Same 🤍
I salute you for documenting all this for us and for yourself, but mostly us. As an influencer I think it’s wonderful that you use your platform to share this extremely private journey. But it happens more than we think and perhaps other woman can relate and seek comfort in your journey.
All the best! And here’s to a happy, healthy pregnancy 🥰
I myself am 13 weeks and 3 days pregnant today 👶🏼
I had a subchorionic hematoma at 11 weeks. I literally thought I was miscarrying my miracle baby. Fortunately, babe is fine. He's 8.5 months now and my whole life. ♥️♥️♥️
I had a subchorionic hematoma, which came with a significant amount of bleeding, with both of my munchkins and here they are now a loud and independent 7 year old and a rambunctious 3 year old (4 years old in one month).
Thank you for being so open and vulnerable with us and for letting us join you on this journey. I can’t wait to see you become parents. ❤️
People can be insensitive without the intent. I appreciate you courage to truly document this life..Im eating cookies with you, and am happy for you.
I went through similar stuff with both of my pregnancies, never fully got an answer other than the babies were fine. It’s definitely still worrisome even when you hear everything is going fine. It’s your momma instincts. So get ready because it never ends from here on out lol. And thank you for your openness. You deserve to share this beautiful time with who you want regardless of what people think ❤️
I live where we have 6 months of winter and I still get super excited every year for snow!
I think it's soo awesome that you are sharing ALL of your journey with us! So many women only share after 12 weeks (no judgement at all, that's their choice!) but then we don't hear a lot of women's stories about these early weeks of pregnancy. I love seeing your whole journey, especially the ups and downs of IVF. You're really helping a lot of women! I also have lupus and am worried about getting pregnant one day- so I also appreciate you sharing that part of your journey! Basically, thank you for being so transparent. I'm so sorry you've gotten some nasty messages, you do not deserve that. I'm wishing you all the best with the pregnancy and I cannot wait to watch you and Grant be amazing parents
❤️ everything seems so much scarier when you are pregnant! Hormones don’t help! I dealt with spotting for my pregnancies with both of my children, so I have been in your shoes and felt alllllll the feels. Its so hard, be strong! Thinking of you, hope everything gets easier!
You have every right in the world to be excited about your pregnancy! It’s your right to tell whom ever you want to tell about your blessing ! I had some lite spotting with my second baby about 6 weeks along and she is 5yrs old now.... have a happy pregnancy enjoy every moment it goes by so fast it really does!
Awww I am so relieved for you xx I had 3 miscarriages in the past so I know that stress when you go to the hospital xx I am so glad you got to hear the babies heart beat and got to see the baby , with my little girl I had a scan at 6 weeks she is 8 next week time goes fast xx lots of love to you xx
Every viewer who has been pregnant knows exactly your fears and concerns. We gotchya, my dear. We have all been there and ain't no judging happening! Also, being from Ottawa, Canada, where it snows for literally half the year, I must say I found your delight in the snow refreshing. Glad you got to experience that! Happy baby wishes!!!
I had a subchorionic hematoma at 11 weeks. I had an insane amount of bleeding, I didn’t think there was any way the baby would be ok. But the heartbeat was still there and everything went on to be fine and I never had bleeding again. Stay positive!
I’ve never met you and I never will, but I just wanted to say you are so brave!! I really admire your guts to be honest about this tough process and the resilience you guys always show :) your baby will have a great parents
When I tell you I clicked SO FAST. So glad to hear everything is going well 🥰
I am 2 weeks postpartum and your videos are keeping my head in the right place when I am super sleep deprived and feeling a little ungrateful. It's easy to take things for granted so I appreciate these videos so much. They are helping me keep a 'happy heart'! Sending all the joyful vibes your way! ❤
When you gave us a glimpse of the ultrasound as you left the doctors office, I sobbed yessss you got to hear the heartbeat. Mom of four here. And there is nothing that sound so perfect than every time you get to hear that sweet baby growing inside. I am just so excited for you guys. And thank you for bring us along on your journey 😘
I bled profusely my whole first four months of my first pregnancy and was hospitalized for two of those months. Turns out my placenta was low so any trip to the bathroom or cough, straining would bring on a good flow. Nine years later it started again with my second pregnancy and even though I had been there before, I laid on the bathroom floor all of that first day, crying. A year and a few short months after she was born healthy and happy, I was pregnant again and bleeding again. This time I was reassuring everyone that the bleeding was ok, been there before. I simply have low placentas that get juggled around when any muscular movement occurred. I am way past having babies, now I am the wise old Nanny and it is my job to support my kids and extended family. I am sure you will be fine. Congratulations to both of you.
I'm going to cry, how beautiful !!!
Thanks for taking us on this journey with you 😘❤❤
Happy birthday Grant!
So happy everything's going well with baby! Everything is nerve wracking in pregnancy - I was nervous before EVERY ultrasound regardless of whether I had something to 'worry' about or not. You worry because you care! it's good to try to not to get yourself worked up, your body does some crazy things during pregnancy, but don't let anyone make you feel badly for worrying!
Good luck w everything!! Beyond happy for you, watching your vlogs is always like picking up the phone and calling a friend for hours catching up!
I had a lot of cramping in the beginning of my pregnancy and they said it was the round ligament pain. That hurt so much so I totally know how you feel being worried about all these new pains! But also, screw what anyone else has to say! YOU DESERVE TO BE HAPPY! This is a happy time! We love you and are so thrilled for you! Sending all the positive thoughts in the world to you and your sweet little fam!
not me crying at every sweet moment you are getting to experience with being pregnant
same 💙
So happy to hear y'all are ok so far. Never let anyone tell you that it's too early to be excited, anxious, or concerned. Every stage of human life and the journey you've been through to get there is important to you and that's what matters. I was blessed with 3 living children out of 6 pregnancies and each one was a gift. God bless!!!
You: are you excited to be a big sister?
Luna’s only child energy: 👉🏻🥺👈🏻
You and Grant are just the cutest. Wishing you nothing less than a happy and healthy pregnancy. 💖
Congratulations LeighAnn!!! I’m sooo jealous that you got snow. I live in Austin but have been visiting with my family in Houston and missed out on the snow!
I've been using the app Expectful through my IVF journey and it's great! My 2 friends that are pregnant recommended it to me. They loved using it throughout their pregnancies. I'm so incredibly happy for you and Grant! I feel so comforted watching your journey while going through my own. You're amazing! Thank you!
My feet “grew” after my last pregnancy. I think they flatten out during pregnant sometimes because of the hormones. Don’t buy any shoes until the baby comes!! I’m so glad every turned out well this week. I pray everyday is keeps going that way!
I've heard this can happen and I really can't afford to have feet any bigger than I do already! 😅💀
I'm so glad everything is fine!! I went through 3 years of fertility treatments (PCOS) and when I FINALLY got pregnant, when they did my 7 week ultrasound they warned me that I had a subchorionic hematoma and not to freak out if I had any bleeding. Thankfully I didn't, but would have reacted the same way as you. Sending prayers for a healthy pregnancy ! I'm so happy for you. I understand the whole journey all too well.
I’m happy you got to have an early ultrasound and everything was good. I’m sure it eased your mind. I’m also happy Grant found some boots. What a positive vlog overall. 😁
Just always keep your head up. ♥️
I had 7 kids 6 girls and 1 boy. You are going to be awesome parents and one day soon you will be holding all that fear and worry in your arms ! Blessed as ever !
OMG you just uploaded 28 seconds ago and I'm already watching, is that needy? am I too attached 😂
I'm also here 5 seconds in commenting back so... it's mutual 🥰
that's okay.. you are in good company!!
I had a very straightforward pregnancy, but I needed a bunch of extra ultrasounds. I was so anxious about each one, but I framed it for myself as another bonus opportunity to see my baby. You’re doing great.
Had such a hard, overwhelming day today and this just brightened me up. Love you Leigh Ann and congratulations to you Grant and Luna! 💖
ugh I hate those days so much. I'm so glad you're here and I hope tomorrow is much better 🖤
Hope you are ok!
Hope you have a better day tomorrow and week 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Thank you all so much 🙏🏼 this community is truly amazing! 🥰
I found out Wednesday that I’m pregnant with my first baby and watching you on this journey has been such a wonderful time. Now I get to experience it all with you, albeit in a different way but together nonetheless. I saw today in a Reddit thread that someone said “isn’t it wonderful to know that you are pregnant/birthing a baby at the same time with a group of strong women?” And let me tell you, it is a amazing and I’m loving it.
Congrats! I spotted during the first several months of my pregnancy and weirdly during the time that would have been my period. It was very light spotting. The first month was pretty steady spotting though to the point where I was sure it was my period because it came right after a negative pregnancy test. The next month I received a positive and when I went for my ultrasound I was 4 weeks further along than I thought because of that bleeding and negative test. Let me tell you, I was shocked to already see fingers and toes on that first ultrasound lol.
hearing the heartbeat is the BEST sound in the entire world - the.best.sound.
I really like the ovia app. Lots of information and you can personalize it to suit you. Easy to keep notes in and I found it very helpful!
thanks!!
@@leighannsays I was coming here to recommend OVIA too! Great info and visually pleasing to use. :)
I had a subchorionic hematoma during my pregnancy, and also freaked out. I am now the mother of a soon to be 1 year old healthy, happy, wonderful baby boy! Pregnancy was definitely scary and full of surprises, but everything will work out for the best 😊 sending love💕
I’m happy everything is okay. I praying for you to have a smooth pregnancy.
Don't let anyone steal your joy!!!! First pregnancies are very exciting everything is new. I raised three kids and I get it. Thank you for sharing people should remember that you don't have to.
So so so happy to see that you got to hear the baby’s heartbeat! How incredibly exciting! The snow in Dallas was crazy too! Didn’t get much on the North side but the photos were so cool. Eating my cookies like always 💕🍪
I used (and still use) the app What To Expect. It goes week by week for pregnancy and after birth it keeps counting baby’s weeks (age) and tells you what you should be expecting for their age and growth and stuff. I really like it!
I’ve had 5 pregnancies, 4 births. Been through it all! Every different type of situation and different type of birth! (Thank god I’m done!). My last two I had the bleeding / hematoma situation. It’s scary! First time it happened it was just a little that didn’t last too long, last pregnancy it lasted 12 weeks! It was so frustrating, it kept getting bigger and bigger. But my advice from going through it - rest!! Limit how much you are up and about. When they finally put me on modified bed rest, then it healed! So just relax and let your body do it’s thing!
thank you so much for sharing your story! I'll definitely remember that if it ends up happening to me or getting worse. ❤️
Please you got to see your little baby’s heartbeat. Thinking of you often and sending positive vibes ❤️
I had 2 bleeding scares during my pregnancy and it was terrifying. One was at like 8 weeks and one at 10. You are not alone 💞
Im Praying for you and this journey. Becoming a momma is the biggest blessing in the world!! This will be the longest 40(ish) weeks of your life. Always trust your gut! Youre going to be a wonderful momma!!!
Seeing this made my heart happy
I started watching your channel when you were in your first apartment doing brow tutorials❤❤ you have serious mom vibes. God speed.
I had bleeding at 6 weeks with my first son. I was terrified, but he’s sitting right beside me now at 6 years old 🤗 I also had bleeding at 12 weeks. No one ever told me why, but I know that’s so scary! Hang in there!
So glad you were able to get that reassurance. I went bowling at 3 months pregnant and experienced spotting afterward and blamed myself horribly, thinking I'd hurt my unborn child ..i even had to stay overnight in the hospital, but everything checked out ok and that child is now 32 yrs old with a child of his own. It will all be worth it...enjoy and be as happy and excited as u want to be !
Leighann it is your choice how you want to share your pregnancy story don’t read all of the stories that stress you out. everyone’s story is similar but different if you know what I mean . You are doing wonderful and everything is new to you in pregnancy so chart it all Leighann you and Granteronni both deserve this happy journey ❤️❤️
For what it’s worth, I had bleeding and cramping at 9 weeks and today that baby is my big, loud, 6’3” healthy 18 year old son. You’re doing a great job managing the anxiety all this is causing you. It’s so nerve wracking. Hang in there, mama! You’re going to be some of the very best parents to THIS baby! ❤️👍
Glad everything is well! I had spotting and pain throughout my entire pregnancy, nausea so bad I lost too much weight and extremely dehydrated. Everyone paints pregnancy as an amazing thing and it is but, it's also got moments of agony and exhaustion.
Thank you for sharing your good news. It’s a bright spot in these crazy times. I live about two hours south of you. I almost hate to say that we got about 6 inches of snow. It was beautiful. I lived in CO Springs for 15 years. We didn’t get an abundance of snow like most people think. I loved every minute of it. So beautiful and calming.
I’ve been praying for you & my sister to get pregnant and now y’all are pregnant at the same time!! ❤️❤️
Seeing your baby on an ultrasound is just the best! I had a large subdural hematoma with my second baby and bled heavily through out my entire pregnancy, it was such an emotional rollercoaster. Mine caused all sorts of complications because of its size (lots of rest shrinks their size) but in the end after arriving 7w prem my baby is now a crazy 10y old! Love following your journey, wishing you both all the very best 💖.
