I was 42 when I was pregnant with my only child. We had some test results indicate that there was a 25% chance that something was wrong with the baby. I was scared to death for days. Try to remember that if the weatherman reported a 25% chance of rain you probably wouldn’t take an umbrella. Praying that all goes well.
That's such a good way of looking at it!
I love this perspective. 💜🥰
This was so perfect! I hope Leigh Ann sees this perspective
Beautiful way to look at it
THIS IS SO GOOD
My nephew has a one of a kind heart. Not only did he have two severe heart defects that were repaired when he was 6 months old but his electrical system was written about in a medical journal. He was in heart failure the first 6 months of his life. He’s 20 years old and in college to be a pediatric cardiologist like the one that saved him. You would never know he has a special heart-he will have to eventually have a pacemaker and seems the cardiologist every year but he lives a normal life. Just a little story that having a baby with a heart problem can have a happy ending. :)
love that story !
@@MonibooFinebean Thank you. He is his mama’s (and his Aunt’s) pride and joy 😊
That’s interesting - I also was born with a really complex heart defect and I’m studying premedicine as well! ♥️ all the best to him!
Wow what an awesome story
Listen, we sacrificed our bodies to eat cookies every day until that baby got in you and we are READY to eat the cookies so baby-roni stays healthy when he/she is out too. You ask, you shall receive. Let me get out my chocolate chip recipe now. 🍪🍪🍪- seriously though, always praying for you guys, I have faith that baby will be healthy, happy, and adorable.
I don't deserve y'all 🥺thank you so much for being so sweet and supporting us! I wish I didn't have to call for more cookies but you're right, it's what we need 💙
@@leighannsays cookies on the oven, baby-roni is going to rock this and come out healthy and happy
Same thought here. Still eating cookies! Thinking positive, sending light. 💚
Okay this comment made me bawl, I love this community 🥰
AMEN! All the cookies for baby-roni!
Imagine this: it’s fall, you and Grant are home and introducing Babyroni to Luna and your family. Babyroni is perfect with 10 fingers and 10 toes, a precious face, and the best new baby smell. It’s a beautiful, cozy fall day and you think back on all the ups and downs that led to this moment and smile at your baby because they’re in your arms and none of the challenges matter anymore. The first positive test that didn’t work out, the hyper-stimulation, the pain (in the butt!) of taking shots everyday, and now this. Because all of the time, energy, emotion, blood, sweat, and tears were all worth it. ♥️♥️ you’ve got this mama. We’re all here rooting for you ♥️
😭😭😭 thank you so much for this. im barely holding my tears in reading everyone's comments and this is just too kind and thoughtful. I'm so grateful for your support 💙
This is so perfect 😍
THIS IS EVERYTHING!!
Best 👏🏻 comment 👏🏻 ever 👏🏻 😭🥰🥰🥰
this is not even my baby and I am bawling over this comment at 7 am 😭😭 this is so sweet
Long time viewer and never commented. Lifting you up in prayers. This baby is a fighter and strong!
thank you so much! I believe this baby will make it through this.
@@leighannsays absolutely!!! Be strong, you guys are amazing parents, you’ll have an amazing baby. ♥️♥️♥️♥️
Grant is so steady, and calm, and positive. Cross bridges as you get there, kind of a guy. What a blessing to have him in your corner! All the best to baby- you are going to come out of this JUST FINE.
yes he is chilllax guy jelp her ground
So true ❤️ we all need this energy in our lives!
I'm so lucky it to have him 😭💙
I imagine its part his personality and part education given his job. They are blessed 🙌
My Joe is very much like your Grant. Having a partner that is so calm and level headed truly helps keep me grounded and feeling safe. I am the worrier in our relationship. I also feel so lucky to have him by my side.
I have been disabled since 2014, he’s been my rock. It’s been a lot. I couldn’t have gotten through all of this without him. Marriage/life isn’t easy at times. Stress and worry isn’t easy to endure alone, having someone by our side to support us moving forward is such a blessing.
Grant is going to be an absolutely wonderful dad, and you are going to be a great mother.
Just remember that doctors have to tell high risk patients all the possibilities. And possibilities are not the same as probabilities! Baby will be fine! I admire the way you work through the possibility of bad news.
As a mama with lupus, taking plaquenil, and just went through all the neonatal lupus testing and precautions (& all the extra doctors and appointments) sending you all the prayers and positive vibes! Our happy healthy babe is turning one in July with no heart issues 💕 hopefully your little one is also just trying to prepare you for the teenage years 😘
I’m a mom (to 5 kiddos) with Lupus as well. I was on plaquenil (and steroids) for years as well. All of my kids are fine. And I had scares while pregnant as well. My youngest is 12 now. I’m sure everything will be fine. I will be praying for you guys.
My sister-in-laws baby had the craziest scenario with her heart! She was 1 in 3 cases. They discovered the issue because her HR was 250! She had heart failure and they did have to shock her at birth (there are a lot details) My sister in law went to a 4-6 dr appts/week for the last 3 months of her pregnancy. The baby today is perfectly healthy now. It was an absolute miracle. I have faith that your baby will be good! Keep your heads high and keep praying! I’ll be praying too!
thank you so much for sharing this story with me! its so encouraging to hear from everyone with great outcomes after hard pregnancies. im so glad your SIL's baby is healthy!
Prayer warriors unite! Lifting you in prayer sweet friend!
💕🙏🏼🍪
Yes! Lifting you and baby up that you both remain healthy and baby continues to develop in complete and wonderfully-made perfection. In Jesus’ name, amen!
Yes and Amen!
thank you so much Dani!! You are so sweet and I appreciate you so much 💙
instablaster
Perks of more ultrasounds are seeing that cutie patootie more 😘
thats what my sister said too 💙
I had high risk pregnancy being 38 years old and having Sjogrens with my 12 year old, and you will love seeing that sweet baby so much. Make sure you get DVD's if they do that for you.
Exactly!
I’m going to pass on a Nelson Mandela quote that really speaks to me:
“May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears.”
Choose the crib. Decorate the nursery. You’re surrounded by love and support. 💛
Amazingly said
I’m a special needs mom, and this quote speaks volumes!🤍
Beautiful!
YES AND YES AND YES!!!!
This is so beautiful 😭💗
Luna starting our family meeting in the dining room that bark meant “cookie people hustle we need the cookies cause we are a one - huddle up people”
awww that is exactly what she meant 🥰🍪
@@leighannsays she gets us. We are her people
@@AmandaandlolaNL we are I remember when Luna into our lives and Leighann found her back in Houston after house purchase. Luna had both my daughter and my own heart at first site esp adjusting to little backyard.
I have the lupus antibodies and after 3 heart healthy kids, my 4th was diagnosed with complete heart block at 22 weeks, she had a pacemaker placed at 3 months. She just turned 3 and is THRIVING! I'd love to share our story with you, mama ❤️
thank you so much for sharing this with me! I'm so glad she is thriving and you've had so many healthy babies! 💙
@@leighannsays I also wanted to say, I had a fifth baby and was on plaq from the beginning and she was born heart healthy 💜
wonderful beauiful . I know two kids born w heart issues both had many surgeries for blockages and such One is 11 now doing great has sibling now other 5yr mid child does well too.
My 2nd daughter is the same! Just commented up thread, happy to share my experiences with you Leigh Ann!
I hope baby is watching this in the future and runs in to hug you and Grant for loving them so much and going through so much to bring them into the world ❤
I never comment but I’ve been watching you for years and just wanted to tell you my heart felt every bit of this. My daughter was born at 27 weeks and I had those same thoughts about how can I buy anything for her when I don’t know if she’ll even come home and thankfully she did come home💛 I am praying so hard for you guys. A verse that I hold dear to my heart is “prepare your fields for his blessings” Gods got this. I’m so happy you have an amazing support system!
My aunt has Sjogren's and my cousin had heart block. She had a pacemaker placed at 3 days old, and she is a healthy, active 7 year old now! Keeping my fingers crossed for good outcomes 🤞🤞🤞
thank you so much for sharing this with me!! positive stories are so encouraging especially right now ❤️
I’ve had mine since I was 8 days old and I’m a healthy 30 year old woman hoping to start my own family one day too!
Leigh Ann, Im a pediatric hospitalist and attend deliveries all the time. I work in the special care nursery. Ive seen many moms with lupus. Because you have well managed lupus I truly believe that your baby will be nice and healthy :) sending you lots of love and prayers
Sometimes as parents it gets really scary. Sending you all love cookies and most importantly prayers.
I had all my kids in the 80’s. I had every possible thing with them all .1st preeclampsia 2nd pre diabetes. 3rd.diabetes insulin dependent. I felt them early also. They all were fine and lived to give us 9 grands. Your will too.👍🏻👏🏻👶🏼
I was born with multiple heart defects and went through 4 open heart surgeries before the age of 4. Now, I'm 22, stable cardiac-wise, and about to graduate from college. Sometimes just hearing of someone thriving with heart problems older than you (or your child) can be reassuring. Prayers!
There is also so much more that works in medicine for CHD kids and communities online and through hospitals for families. I hope your baby is happy and healthy, but know that there is so much more hope & support today in 2021 than there was in 1997 when my parents went through this,
My whole family is praying, your baby WILL NOT have heart issues.
thank you so much!! 💙
I have a connective tissue disease and take Plaquenil. I also have hereditary high blood pressure. I was so nervous when I got pregnant that I didn’t tell most people in my life that I was pregnant until I was about 6 months along because I was so worried about complications. Luckily my daughter, now 19 months old, is extremely healthy! Stay positive! It sounds like you have an amazing team of healthcare providers, everything will be fine ❤️❤️❤️
Do you have EDS?
@@professionalcommenter No, I have something similar to lupus but I don’t quite check all the boxes so my doctor just calls it connective tissue disease.
@@professionalcommenter Are you a fellow EDS zebra?
It’s so, so scary to think something could be wrong with your baby. Your baby is so blessed to have you in his/her corner. Praying for zero health complications for your little one.
I’ve been following you for 8 years and am an L&D nurse and this hit so hard!!! I’m crying and can’t be praying enough for y’all!
thank you so much for your prayers. i appreciate more than you know!
The moving feeling is so unreal. When my daughter moves it just makes me laugh because she’s going bananas but no one can see or feel it but me and I find it hilarious.
Parenthood can be the scariest thing at times, sending you guys all the positive energy and virtual hugs
Okay if baby turtles 🐢🐢🐢 wasn’t a sign that everything is going to be okay, I don’t know what is!! Prayers for you all 💜
You guys are sooooo awesome for sharing this journey with all of us! I only hope that you feel the support and prayers sent your way! I pray for you often and will double up! We are going to speak positivity into existence! You guys are the best parents already! ❤
It sounds like you have a great team and are getting lots of early information, so that is all positive!! Sending healthy baby and mama dust!
I've been waiting on this since seeing your IG story. Haven't watched yet but just want to stop in and tell you that you are so loved and have so many people rooting for you and baby Roni. Love you ❣️❣️❣️
Praying for y'all Leighann!!! I've got good feelings that baby is going to be just fine and will be delivered as a happy healthy little bean. Sending all my love!
I’m a naturally anxious person and have to actively talk myself out of the “what if [bad thing]” and into the “but what if [really good thing]?” headspace all the time. Sending so many prayers and high fives from Milwaukee - for your health, for baby, and for your peace of mind (and Grant too, of course!). You’re also officially on my mom’s Sunday School prayer chain - she asks me about “my friend LeighAnn” (have I explained TH-cam? Yes. Does it matter at this point? No!) ❤️❤️❤️
I do too. I worry about a lot. Anxiety isn’t fun at all!
Same. I’m a big worry wart
So glad Dr. Grant got to go to the big one!
Such excitement!
I think its a boy? Just a guess.
I cry EVERY TIME i hear a babies heart beat. I guess it was such a huge deal when I heard my babys heart. I get teary every time
I swear I heard her say “him” and the dr say “him”.
@@lizmccormick3822 That will be one very loved baby.
Im eatin cookies !
I know this isn’t important but is Grant a Dr.? Or work in the medical field ?
@@kellswalker88 yes Grant is a Dr. not sure what kind though.
It takes so much strength to have processed through all of this quickly enough to share this difficult news on the internet with such bravery and a well-rounded perspective. Inspired my your strength today!! Prayers for your little family
“I WANT DONUTS!”
Grant, calm as ever: “ok”
he's used to my almost daily donut demands and the donuts never actually happen 😭
Tiny bubbles is most definitely the feeling I can relate to with baby movements! 🥰
We will continue to be optimistic for you guys!! Baby is going to develope well and strong! ❤️ Sending you both a big warm hug! 🥰🥰
hi friend! I have Lupus (SLE) with high anti-Ro/SSA - so high that that heart block is basically guaranteed in my future pregnancies. My rheum has told me that my levels are extremely uncommon and if anyone's got a lower level than mine, everything should be OK. I am rooting for you, it's going to be OK.
Praying for you guys and sending hugs! Grant has such a calming presence - I am so glad he was able to come with you to your appointments 💕
Lighting a candle 🕯 for you, the baby, and Grant. Hoping all continues to go well.
From the moment you shared Grant with us, I felt like he was perfect for you...every vlog and all the things from Luna, cooking, DQ, and your pregnancy...he’s a rock. Keeping you all in my prayers. 🙏🏻💗 And bridges freak me out...so that music had me on edge, LOL.
Just remember: even though there could be “worse” things, you’re allowed to feel sad, upset, or anything you want about this, even if it’s only potential. I’m a bereaved mother & it sucks to say the least, so your fears and grief are valid. I’m not into toxic positivity- just feel the sad feelings and put them to the side. We’re thinking of you guys & can’t wait for you to meet your perfect baby. Because they *will* be perfect, no matter what happens!!
oh my goodness, I have been watching Leighann for a good decade and the pure radiance and joy she exuded while talking about the good news was unreal. It makes my heart so happy to see them grow and make their life goals come true
Don’t let fear take away from the joy of pregnancy. I am praying for you and Grant and your sweet baby!! I’m sure you’ll have a healthy happy baby!! 💜
I’ve been waiting all day for this update 💞 hope all is okay.
God brought this miracle baby into your life and he will protect you and the baby. I have total faith that God would not bring you this far to take the baby away or cause him or her to be born with a heart problem. I will be praying for you and this precious baby daily. Just remember God is a God of miracles and he will prove it with a healthy baby coming into your life in about 18-20 weeks. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Pregnancy is such a scary and anxious time but it sounds like you’re getting amazing care and doing everything possible to give your baby the best chance! Good luck - sending you lots of positive vibes! ❤️
So good to hear that the baby is right on track and you can feel them moving, yay!! Your baby really is the cutest lil thing. Keeping you all in my prayers!
Being high risk is a lot. It hits you in the face like whoa. The high risk ob/gyns are sooo smart and amazing. Nerdiest doctors and I felt so safe. 🙏 you seem like you have a great game plan and everyone is working in sync!!
^^^ this. I have incompetent cervix, PPROM, 2 preterm deliveries, polyhydramnios, placental abruption. If you find a good one,, they know their stuff!
I’m glad it’s a maybe and not a yes, but I’m sorry it’s there. It’s never nice to hear anything is “wrong.” Thank goodness Grant is a Dr! I can only imagine the comfort that can bring. I’m a nursing student and it’s nice to see the medical side and be able to research things and not just see the scariness of it all! I’m glad things are good everywhere else!!!
You guys are the perfect team. Sit and wait must be difficult but you have each other and your faith. I’ll be praying for the baby’s heart and mom and dad.
It’s cookie time!!!! It’s definitely not the sort of news that you want to hear, but it sounds like you have a great team and it’s good that you’re aware and can keep an eye on everything. Sending you so much love!
I said a prayer for you three ❤️ You are so strong and such an inspiring example of positivity, Leighann. You and Grant are going to be such great parents!
thank you so much!
I’ve never clicked on a link so quickly. 💕💕💕 You look stunning! Sending much love and light. ✨💛
thank you so much!
Praying for you, Grant, and baby. It’s so hard to feel helpless. Historically, you are so good at staying positive, and that’s going to do wonders for you through this ❤️
I'm so glad your baby's growing so well and is such a little party kiddo! One thing I found helpful during my pregnancies (when I had worrisome things to think about) was just sitting in my rocking chair, rubbing my bump, and singing softly to the baby. The love just melted the worries away and I felt stronger to cope with worries after that bonding time. You've got Grant, great doctors, a wonderful family showering you all with love and prayers...and you've got one precious baby who has an amazing Mom and Dad.
I had some really bad (life changing) news at my week 20 anatomy scan. Hope everything turns out okay for you and the baby gets born happy and healthy!
My son has a severe heart defect and has had two heart surgeries so far. He'll be 1 years old on Saturday. He is doing well! We found out about his heart at my 20 week anatomy scan, so I can relate to how terrifying it is to hear news like that. I found it very comforting to hear that I wasn't alone in having my world rocked. You're not alone. 💕
Yay for good news! You guys got this! I'm so glad you have grant and great doctors on your side! I'll be praying and sending good, healthy vibes and prayers you and baby!
Power of prayer is an amazing thing so start sending prayers up everyone for a healthy baby for these two! We got this!! 🙏🏻🙏🏻 Love you guys!
You really must feel so scared and anxious. I'm so glad you have Grant and Luna by your side. We are sending all of the good vibes and cookies from ATL. 💜💜💜
Praying for you that everything is okay, sending all good thoughts your way.
Feeling the baby move is the only thing I miss about being pregnant. It is the coolest thing. Sending so much love and prayers your way!!
I'll keep praying. Your baby is strong and will make through this journey! 💜
I hear you as a 3 time IVF patient. You and your baby will be fine , I really feel in my heart Leanne and Grant your baby will be fine. Sorry if I misspelled your name!
AW the baby is such a precious little angel! Everything will be okay, Hun.
I am praying so that you and your baby have a healthy pregnancy and a safe delivery........! 🙏🏼💙💗
Such lovely news that the baby is developing well and Grant has been feeling him/her kicking too. You are both glowing and it’s lovely to see 😊 I’m sorry to hear you are having worries and I hope these ease soon x
My daughter was born with PVS and she had to have open heart surgery at 8 months but today she’s a very rambunctious almost 2 year old. Just because babies have heart issues doesn’t mean they can’t be happy healthy perfect babies. ❤️ much love & prayers to you and your growing family
DID GRANT SAY BABY R??? Does that mean y’all have a name already???
Sending prayers for the chubbiest, rosy cheeked, gurgling and cooing healthiest hearted baby that has ever been born. (And for some reason I'm seeing a boy). Love you and Grant.
I’ve been watching you for like 7 years now...I can honestly say I love you. I love your morals, your style, your whole vibe 💗 And I am praying hard for you and little. The Big Guy upstairs has big plans for your little family. I know it!
Praying continuously and sending love! Everything is going to be fine!!!
You don’t have to decorate ...or have a crib...or have a baby shower before you give birth.....I lost a child and when I had my second child I did none of that stuff.....I just waited and when I brought my second child home from the hospital we had a big home coming party with everyone there .....it was the best shower party ever .....your baby won’t sleep in a crib for the first few weeks anyway....you’ve got this.... praying for your family.
I’m a mom of three, have lupus and have been taking plaquinil for over 10yrs. All 3 kids are fine. Breathe mama, you’ve got this.
Keeping you in my prayers! I know how hard it is not to worry about your baby and even more so after all you’ve been through to get here. I will pray that these next 7 weeks go by fast and all goes well.
It’s incredible how strong you are, you are truly amazing! I’m sending you two all the prayers and positive vibes I can!!! ♥️
I am just praying for your family Leigh Ann! I’m praying God gives you peace as you wait through the risk period. You are doing everything you can & that’s all you can do! Have faith & know your viewers care. You are so brave to share your story & I know so many ladies are being helped or encouraged through this. Sending lots of love to you.
I just feel in the deepest pit of my soul that this baby is going to be perfectly perfect. I have faith that he/she will be healthy. I refuse to think otherwise. 💙💜💙
Sending you lots of love and positive vibes. I know the stressful/scary feeling of having to wait and see with pregnancy. Not having control over the situation is never easy. Glad you have so many supportive people in your life.
Praying for that little baby! Hoping you and Grant have comfort through the uncertainty. You said it, this baby is unstoppable!!
I explained how my baby felt is like a fish out of water flopping. Not butterflies.
And Im definitely praying for y’all! I’ve been watching you for a long long time! You remind me of my little sister. And I cried with you like you are my sibling. 💕
Praying for a healthy happy baby Grantleigh! Love from Oklahoma!
I dropped everything and prayed for baby and for you and Grant to feel peace surrounding this. Thank you for sharing with us. Prayer and support are so important! ❤️
The love you have for each other and for the baby is heartwarming. Praying for you all ❤️
Rounding up all the cookies for the next 20 weeks, sending you lots of love. You've got this mama!
thank you so so much!
praying for you and your baby, hope you'll have a smooth pregnancy
Praying for your sweet baby, it sounds like you have a wonderful team of doctors behind you ❤
You, Grant and that precious Baby are definitely in my prayers! 🙏🏼❤️
Ultrasound technology is amazing and a blessing. But try to remember it's not perfect and sometimes what may seem really, really scary turns out to be pretty much nothing. I know you'll still worry but try to remember that your body and babies body are wonderfully and beautifully made.
Keep praying and keep taking care of yourself.
Edit to Add: I will pray for you and your family as well as your doctors.
I can't believe we are already at 19 weeks. So awesome!
I love the way Grant looks at you when you talk - it's the sweetest. You are a lucky girl 😊
Keeping you and grant and baby in my prayers! You are doing all the right things and I am so happy you and grant have each other to get you through stressful times!
I love that picture at the doctor's office "An apple a day, keeps the doctor away." It's punny!
Sending my love and prayers for everyone’s health! ❤️❤️❤️ I’m eating cookies for baby!!
Parenting is so rewarding but so scary. I’m sorry you’re getting a taste of the scary so soon. Sending you guys all the good vibes 🍪🍪🍪
Sending prayers your way. Everything will work out. I pray this is a healthy baby ❤️ you’ve got this mama! Love how supportive grant is!
I had 2 high risk babies, and you definitely have the right attitude. With my first I let myself be so consumed with worry that I was literally shocked when they handed me a healthy happy baby. I had prepared myself for the worst so much that I forgot to prepare myself for actual motherhood. Stay positive, and like you said you have a greater chance of healthy baby, focus on the good.
I did the same with my first after I was told I had Single Umbilical Artery (also high risk). I consumed myself with googling, and had crippling fear of the worst. My baby ended up being healthy in every way, and I really regret the stress and worry I put myself and baby through.
All good thoughts for you guys. At my 20w we found that my little guy had only one kidney. From then had appts with genetics to see if any chance of other genetic issues, went for a fetal echo to check the heart for any potential structural issues, lots of extra visits to see if there were any other structural issues in the urinary system. It was stressful and I got a lot of stats about possibilities for other issues, but I now have a happy, healthy toddler who just happens to have one kidney.
You’ve really internalized all of the information and communicate it so well in these videos. We will all think positively and pray hard for your little one, who is still being knit together in there. Sending love to you guys. Education can lessen fear, and You’re going into this so so educated and as prepared as possible. 💜💜
Prayers for you and the baby. I hope everything goes smoothly, and I love following your journey!♥️
