I had no idea pregnancy shaming even existed and sometimes I wonder if people actually realize that they are shaming when they open their mouth. I experienced it a few times when I was pregnant with Mila, people would comment on how big I was for how far along I was, and unfortunately I've experienced it again.  

Mila recently received a super fun and special box from Why and Whale. If you haven't heard of Why and Whale, it's a kids subscription box that includes apparel and toys! Read more about the brand here. 

I never thought this day would come! I mean, I thought it would, but a VERY long time ago! I didn't expect it to take this long for me to finally be able to sell something of my own! It's been a long/sad/painful/hurtful/angry/exciting ride but I will never forget it!  

I've been dying to share this t-shirt/blog for such a long while now but life got in the way. First, as you all know, I was dealing with that person, X. During all of that my husband got a job in LA so we were traveling back and forth almost every weekend on the hunt for a place to live.

I wasn't going to share this part of my journey but then I thought about it and told myself that maybe my story could benefit someone else out there, and I did choose to share my journey so here it is.
