I’ve waited 2 1/2 years to write this post. I’m officially 19 weeks pregnant with a baby boy!
This entire pregnancy has been fraught with worry, and I prepared myself for the possibility that I could miscarry at any time. I haven’t dared plan a single thing lest I jinx the pregnancy. But we’ve miraculously made it to 19 weeks. We had an incredible full anatomy scan today, and everything is 100% healthy!

(It’s not my SS# above.
)
Over the past couple of weeks, I’ve thought about what I’d say in this post many, many times, but I didn’t allow myself to type out any actual words until after my doctor’s appointment today.
Some of you know that it has been a long journey for me getting here. I miscarried at 6 weeks with my first pregnancy. After several rounds of clomid and IUI’s, I got pregnant a second time, but miscarried again at 9 weeks — even after we’d heard the heartbeat during three different ultrasounds. We saw a reproductive endocrinologist, we had genetic testing done, we had an autopsy done to try to find out what could possibly be wrong with us (although I always believed that the problem was me).
In the end, we got pregnant after a bottle (or two) of wine when we weren’t trying. It always seems to happen that way doesn’t it?
When you miscarry, you get all kinds of unsolicited advice from, “At least you know you can get pregnant,” to “I have a friend that miscarried x many times and went on to have a healthy child.” But your experience is unique and yours alone, and words of encouragement, no matter how well meaning, often make you feel worse.
This is why I hope that you’ll refrain from asking anyone about their reproductive plans. They could be having trouble conceiving, going through fertility treatments, going through a miscarriage, they could not want kids, they could even be having trouble conceiving a second child… you just never know what could be going on because it is such an intensely personal subject.
When you’ve been married for over 4 years and run a wedding site, you get asked “When are you going to have kids/launch a baby site” hundreds of times — in person, over email, through comments on your site… Sometimes I’d get asked that question as I was actively going through a miscarriage, but I couldn’t say anything about it. I could brush the comments off most of the time, but sometimes they were a reminder of what I felt like was my personal failure to do what women around the world seemed to do so easily.
I don’t have any plans to do a baby site in the near future. Baby and parenting communities, if you’re familiar with them, are some of the most difficult types of communities to run and I’d like a little bit of emotional distance for now. I’ll probably take my first work-free vacation since my honeymoon sometime soon, and eventually I’ll launch another site… or two or three.
And since I’m putting it all out there, I may as well share the baby’s heartbeat with you as well.

Congrats and wish you and Mr. Bee on having a healthy Baby.
I know what is like having a miscarriage. I had a miscarriage at 6 weeks and my heart just dropped, however I find ways to to stay spiritually positive and thanks for sharing your personal experiences.
This was a darling post and thank you for being so upfront. I NEVER thought of it that way, so thank you for sharing!
Congratulations Mrs. Bee! I have been following your journey for about a year and a half… this is one of my favorite webpages! Currently I’m still listed as a guest… but it’s mainly because I haven’t figured out how to be a “member” I started looking at this page while thinking about starting a consultant business, and I’m still thinking about it… This is a wonderful site! May God bless you and Mr. Bee and this little bitty baby bee

Yay!! Secrets out! I am SO excited for you and Mr. Bee!! Congrats!!
I can’t stop smiling for you! Congratulations! I know you and Mr. Bee will make amazing parents! ![]()

Congratulations! And thank you for being brave and sharing your story.

I can’t tell you how excited I am for you!!! Congrats to you and Mr. Bee. That little guy is a VERY lucky guy!
Many women in my family have had fertility troubles and I remember some of them saying how hard it was to get those horrible pregnancy interrogations from family & friends. I know it must have been hard for you. Thanks for sharing your story with us at Weddingbee!
Congratulations!

I’m back- my little girl and your little boy are two weeks apart!! How fun!

I am so, so, so happy for you. I saw your twitter hint earlier today and hoped this was the news, but didn’t want to jump to conclusions. Seriously, I am just thrilled for you. Yay. =)
Mrs. Bee I can’t believe it - and how you kept it a secret! I teared up reading your post, and I am so happy for you and Mr. Bee. Here’s to the healthiest pregnancy and the happiest parents to be (or ‘bee’ - I couldn’t resist)
Congratulations to you and Mr. Bee!!! This is such an exciting time for your family!!

Congrats to you both! This is amazingly wonderful news!
AAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!! OMG I almost yelled out loud when I read this. CONGRATS!!!!!!!

Can’t contain my happiness for you and Mr Bee. Clearly that is the head of a brilliant and talented child. (Or at least a talented ultrasound technician … ours were NEVER that clear!)
And isn’t that anatomy scan a trip? It’s reassuring to know everything’s OK, but as they were going through the different possible problems that looked OK, I kept thinking “Wait! I didn’t know that could happen! Should I have been worrying about that?!!!?!?”
That is SO EXCITING!!!!
I’m so happy for both you and Mr. Bee! I’m sure BabyBee is going to be the luckiest child ever to have such fun, loving parents! Much luck and warm wishes your way for the rest of the pregnancy! –Annette
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How exciting for you and Mr Bee!!!!!! I just screamed and jumped up and FH had a quizzical look…even worse when I said “MRS BEE IS PREGNANT!” I didnt even explain before I ran to the computer. Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations Congratulations !
Ahhh congratulations!!! I’m grinning like a fool over here!! So happy to hear this news…oh gosh I’m gonna start crying. Here’s hoping for a healthy pregnancy and easy delivery! Can’t wait to meet Baby Boy Bee!

Cheers to your pregnancy going wonderfully too! You two will be amazing parents.
Congrats! Just an FYI, in my experience, a boy will leave little time to look at a computer, let alone blog and do more sites. However, then are so worth it. Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy. Take it easy and enjoy!

I have a lump in my throat reading this Bee. I wish I could give you a big huge congratulatory hug!!!! I am SO HAPPY for you guys!!!!!!!!!!
congrats! and could not agree with you more about not asking people if/when they’re having kids and that it is an extremely private subject. thanks for sharing your story and just might have to forward this post to some “inquiring minds” ![]()
{{{{{{{{{{{BEE}}}}}}}}}} I just want to say it again, I am so, so happy for you and MrBee. I hope that everything you both hoped for in parenthood is even more wonderful than you ever imagined.

Wonderful, wonderful news!! Many, many blessings to the Bee family!

Your post made me cry. I’m SO happy for you guys! YAHOO for baby bee!
Congrats Mrs. Bee! So very happy for you. Thank you so much for being so brave to share your very personal story with us.
Yay congrats! So happy for you! Make sure you keep some of that wine on hand ![]()
I’m so excited for you! Congratulations to you both! Yay!!!
I literally did the hands-to-the-face-and-squeal for you!! Oh my gosh, Mrs. Bee!! CONGRATULATIONS!!
:D
We’re almost due date twins — I’m 21 weeks tomorrow! And as much as I would love a site as amazing as WB for my baby obsession, I understand how daunting it could be to start one up. Just take time to soak up enjoying your boy and love the stuffing out of him! I can’t stop using exclamation marks!!! ![]()
Ahh a very touching story! Congratulations
Can’t wait to read more and see lots of photos!
I cannot thank you enough for sharing this! Many of your words ring so true for us, your journey has touched our hearts. It makes us feel even more hopeful for what the future may bring us. Cheers to you and your husband, here’s to a continued healthy pregnancy and a handsome little boy!
CONGRATULATIONS to you and Mr. Bee! I’m sure I’m not alone in saying the hive is sooo happy for you guys!
a BIG congratulations to you and Mr. Bee! What an exciting time for you both.
Oh, Bee! So happy for your happy news. Sending you congratulatory hugs from Maine. xox
CONGRATS! I’m so happy for you.
I would though, advise against the baby website. From what I know, the boards on baby sites get incredibly VICIOUS! Every topic starts heated discussions (breast fed vs bottle fed, spanking, toilet training) etc. And I know you love having this wonderful website where everyone is SO NICE to each other. Relax and enjoy your incredibly successful weddingbee!

Congratulations, Mr. & Mrs. Bee! Many blessings to you both and your beautiful baby boy! :o)

Congrats Mrs. and Mr. Bee! Can’t wait to “meet” your buzzing bundle of joy!
Congratulations and Best Wishes to you and Mr. Bee! What a wonderful time this must be for the two of you!
Congratulations Congratulations to you both–I’m ecstatic for you!
Oh happy day!!! Congratulations to you and Mr. Bee - best wishes for a healthy, relaxing, and joyful rest of the pregnancy ![]()
Congratulations! I know this has been a journey. The first time I heard my daughter’s heartbeat I cried to know I was a mother.
Congratulations!!!! oh best wishes and prayers for you, Mr. Bee and baby bee! I miscarried my first..one of the most lonely and hardest experiences of my life. I now have a gorgeous 2 year old girl, and am pregnant with a little boy!
Congratulations to you and Mr. Bee!! That is so exciting, you two must be so happy. ![]()
Congratulations and best wishes for a happy healthy mama and baby boy (and proud father). I wanted to comment because one of my coworkers went through a miscarriage and is now at 14 weeks. I’m keeping my fingers cross for him and his wife, but they are having great difficulty with this pregnancy too. I think this post is a good omen, so I wish things work out for them too! I wish I know what to do or say to help them out in the meantime, but all I can do is wish them well and encourage my coworker to stay positive so that his wife doesn’t stress out anymore than she already does. My best wishes for your bundle of joy!
Dear Mrs. Bee,
I know all too well the loss of a baby as well as the journey of infertility and clomid -ugh I hate that stuff-. It took us 9 years to have our first son! But it’s all so worthwhile and all the pain of the past will vanish with one look in that little baby’s eyes staring back at you and that tiny chubby fist clutching your one little finger. What joy awaits you! I pray for you… safety in hoards of angels who will watch over you through the remainder of your pregnancy and peaceful moments to yourselves until the little one arrives to shatter that peace! May the good Lord watch over you and your family all the days of your lives!
Blessings!
Tammy

Congratulations. I am proud of your strength to have to be professional while going through all that.
Take care, all the best, and we look forward to ‘baby bee’! ![]()
Congratulations! I am so happy for you and your expanding family. Thanks for sharing your journey with us. Wishing you all the best ![]()
Congratulations and thank you for putting such a great theme on your post. Ironically, as someone who is likely to never have children (by choice) I appreciated it very much. Much love!
What a beautifully written post. I am truly happy and excited for you and your family. Congratulations!
ohhh very happy for you and your healthy baby. sending positive thoughts for a wonderful pregnancy
Congratulations Bee! I am so completely happy for you. Best wishes to you & your family.
If you ever need any help (with a BabyBee website :)), just let me know.
Sarah M.

Yay, yay yay! A baby boy bee…they’re the best!! Many congrats to all!
Aww, a baby bumblebee! Congratulations to both of you and I”m wishing you a very happy and healthy pregnancy!
Congrats Mrs. Bee!!! Such exciting news. You will be such an excellent mother and I am thrilled for you both!
And I am surprised at how many people always ask the baby question, without any regard to the fact that it is not easy for everyone to get pregnant.
@Gina - good points! if people on WB, one of the friendliest places, get so mean about open bar vs. cash bar, I can’t imagine what parenting websites are like!!!
oh that’s wonderful! I’m right there with you…20 weeks on Tuesday. I know you said you aren’t starting a “baby bee” but are you blogging your experience anywhere that we can follow?
It would be very neat to watch your progress, see your nursery, see the baby announcements you pick, etc.

Mazel tov to you and Mr. Bee! I can’t wait to meet the new addition to the bee family!
aw
I been following this blog for years.. and I am so happy for you, Mr. Bee and Baby bee ![]()
Tears
Congratulations Mrs. Bee!!! So excited and happy for you. My cousins had a similar experience and also due with a boy finally this year. It IS a very sensitive subject that we never broached after the first miscarriage. Take care and take the vacation! Hope you fully enjoy and relax during this special time!
Such wonderful news! I hope you are feeling well. I am so happy for you both - we all know couples who have had similar difficult challenges and once that baby arrives it is like the sun shines brighter! Good luck and best wishes for a restful and healthy pregnancy and a happy healthy baby boy!!!
CONGRATULATIONS Mrs. and Mr. Bee! It’s so great to hear the wonderful news. Best wishes for a smooth and hopefully morning-sickness-free rest of your pregnancy as well as a pain-free labor! Also, many blessings upon your growing family!
Oh Mrs Bee, I am SO happy for you! You deserve all the happiness in the world.
Fantastic news! Congrats to you and Mr Bee, I hope the rest of your pregnancy continues well.
Congratulations Mr. and Mrs. Bee! I’m a medical student doing an elective right now in Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility, and my heart just goes out to all the couples like you who have to go through so much. The technologies available now are amazing, but that doesn’t make the process any less exhausting and emotionally difficult. Best wishes for a healthy pregnancy and a wonderful baby!
Congratulations, that is so exciting. You are going to have such a cute baby.
Such wonderful news! I’ll be keeping you, Mr. Bee and Baby Bee in my prayers. So many congratulations!
Congrats to you both - and many wishes for a happy and healthy pregnancy!!!! That is wonderful!!
congratulations! And you gave such great advice in this post. I just had to remind one friend of mine to maybe stop asking another friend if she was pregnant yet - just in case she was having a hard time and not sharing the info
Congratulations!!!
Best wishes for a safe and uneventful pregnancy! =)
P.S. 4D Pictures rock!
Congratulations, Mrs. Bee. To you and to Mr. Bee. It’s such a happy time! =)
I loved the post, great advice. I haven’t decided if I want children yet and it’s always a bit uncomfortable when people talk about my future kids.
Mrs Bee, (and Mr Bee!!) congratulations! Thank you for opening and sharing this part of your life with us! ![]()
congrats to you and mr. bee!!! i wish you all the best of everything to come!
Congratulations!!! I know what it’s like to have a miscarriage too. I miscarried at 12 weeks. With my third baby. I never, ever, thought that I might miscarry having two other healthy kids so I told EVERONE at 6 weeks. A year and a half later I got pregant again after a lot of trying and crying. I didn’t tell anyone because I was so afraid that I would miscarry again. Even though I was so happy to be pregnant I found it hard to enjoy the pregnancy because I was so worried that it would happen agian. I truely understand how you feel. Thank you for sharing your joy with us.

I am so thrilled for you & Mr. Bee!!!!!
What wonderful news. Your little babee is going to be so loved. Congratulations!!!! ![]()
Congrats! I am SOOOOO happy for both of you!!! Enjoy the rest of your pregnancy!!!
Congrats Mrs. Bee! And congrats to ALL of the Bay-Bees (LOL)! HOORAY!
that is wonderful news, we are all incredibly happy for you and mr. bee. thank you for sharing with us.
That’s great news, Mrs. Bee!!!! Best wishes for a happy and healthy pregnancy!
Congratulations! That is such amazing news! Hope the rest of your pregnancy goes well.

Bestest news ever!
Even having suffered through a miscarriage myself, it’s always hard knowing what to say to someone sharing similar news.
But no more need to speak of that now. Only the happiest things.
Another boy: woot!
Congrats to Mr. & Mrs. Bee! This is so exciting! And you know we’re all gonna wanna see your baby bump ![]()
That made me tear up a little bit. Congrats! I know that this will be an emotionally exhausting few months but know that you have everyone here on Weddingbee wishing you the best and sending you our thoughts. Thank you so much for sharing!
OMG Congrats!!!!!!!! Sooo happy for you two (soon to be you three!!) ![]()
you are only too right about the advice part.
congratulations
i’m very happy and excited for you both.
My daughter is now 13m. We found out we were pg on Thursday and ended up in the hospital on Sunday. We we lucky enough that she “stick” to the uterus and now she is a happy, healthy baby, but we went through is ours, just ours. Nobody will be able to ever understand. Now I can openly talk about it, but before I did not even told my mom.
I am so glad for you guys and hope to see more post (and blogs) for moms and children. There is no that many here in NYC.
Welcome aboard and enjoy the ride (it goes very, very fast!)
Congratulations and best wishes!
I wonder how many infant-sized Bee costumes you’ll receive as gifts? ![]()
congratulations!!!! That is great news. I loved your post. Aside from the great news, it was very thoughtful and I appreciate your sharing with us. Yay for new baby bee
YAY!!! Congrats and prayers to all of you for a healthy remainder of the pregnancy and delivery!! ![]()

Congratulations to you, Mr. Bee, and Baby Bee!!! Hope that you have a smooth pregnancy and deliver a healthy little boy! The whole bee community is so excited and happy for you.

Congrats! Oh, how exciting. I am so happy for both of you.
Congrats!
Your story is touching and I wish you the best!
Take care!!
Wonderful news! Congrats — and the advice for not prying about a couple’s intention to have children is much appreciated. If only everyone could understand!

CONGRATS Mr. and Mrs. Bee!!!! You’re going to make wonderful parents! ![]()
CONGRATULATIONS to you both! I am so happy for you both. Here’s to a happy, and healthy Baby Bee!
OMG! Congratulations! I’m so happy your secret is out!
i’m here at work crying arter reading this post and i know i haven’t even ‘met’ you but i read about your long journey and i couldn’t help being so happy for you!
your baby will be so loved for this entire hive!!!!!
congratulations!!! keep us updated every few months so we know you and baby are healthy!
best wishes!
Congratulations! I’ve been married almost 2 years and still enjoy your site. I recently experienced my first pregnancy ending in my first miscarriage so I appreciate you sharing your story. It gives me hope to hear positive good news.
Congrats Mr. and Mrs Bee. I hope everything continues to go well.
How wonderful! Just imagine the kind of baby shower all of us could throw HAHA We’d need a HUGE hotel and a very cool party area. Oh, I can just see it now ![]()
So happy for you… and so sorry for all of the losses you have been through. ![]()
I am SO happy & excited for you!!!! This post made me tear up…love ya!

Such happy, happy news, I am sooo thrilled about the new little bee-to-be! Congrats!
Congratulations! I completely agree about asking folks about their baby plans. We mistakenly alluded to the fact that we were going to start trying right away, and I swear I’ll never mention when we are trying again. Everyone watched every time it was my turn to order a beverage at dinner and there were no shortage of comments when I ordered a cocktail. Luckily, we conceived after 3 months of trying, but I kept wondering what it would be like if we had some trouble in that area. Many of us spend the better part of our adult lives trying not to get pregnant…trying to have a baby is a whole new ball game and comes with a whole new set of fears. I am so happy for you! Enjoy raising your beautiful baby boy!

Congrats! I have had 3 miscarriages and can understand at least in part how you felt. I hope you have an uneventful pregnancy for the rest of the time and an easy delivery! Of course he will be the most beautiful baby you’ve ever seen! (I know my daughter was for me!)
I am sorry it’s late but, CONGRATULATIONS! I am so excited for you. Thank you for sharing your post. I can tell it really came from the heart, which is why I think so many of us are drawn to this website. Although we are miles apart and mostly just meet online, it feels like a family. Once again, Congratulations, may you, Mr. Bee, and Baby Bee be blessed with good health and love!
Congratulations to you Mrs. Bee!! You will make the best mommy! Wishing you a very happy and healthy pregnancy ![]()
Congrats, Congrats, Congrats! So happy for you and your growing family! You and Mr. Bee started your family four years ago when you said your vows, and now, it’s’ expanding. Wishing you joy, bliss, and a healthy, beautiful baby boy Bee. ![]()
Congratulations Mrs. Bee! What wonderful news
Best of luck to you and Mr. Bee in having a happy and healthy baby boy!!
All the love and congratulations in the world.! I am SO excited for you two!
Could this post possibly be int he running for the most comments ever, not including a contest?
oh yay! i’m soooo happy for you both mrs and mr bee! congrats on the healthy pregnancy! i’m doing my happy dance just for you. lol
I am in tears, I AM SO HAPPY FOR YOU!! CONGRATS AGAIN!!!
Really great news! I really identify with you on people asking others about their children situations. Friends and family and even coworkers ask my FI and I when we’re having children all the time and I get tired of explaining that I just don’t know, or why I am not sure, or when we might, etc etc. I think it’s a really personal topic for some and I feel like people should respect that more. But congrats and thanks for sharing with all of us!

Bee you are truly amazing and listening to that heartbeat brings tears to my eyes. I am beyond excited for you and Mr. Bee! Yay for a little baby boy bee!
Congratulations!!!!!
Thank you so much for sharing your story…
…as someone who is not married or trying to get pregnant, I never really thought about asking people about their plans for children. I thought it was polite to ask (to care about the events in another person’s life). I never thought about people having trouble or not being able to at all, but thanks to your very personal story I will never ask such a personal question again. I just had not had the experience (or really known of anyone – that shared- this type of experience) to know things like this… thanks for sharing not only your story, but a good lesson for those not in the know.
I really think that if everyone could take some of the tips/advice from you Mrs. Bee and other bees here, the world would be a much nicer, thoughtful place
Thanks and congrats again!
Oh, Bee, how wonderful! Many, many blessings to you and Mr. Bee with wishes of an easy, healthy pregnancy!
Fertility issues are never easy and to speak about them publicly takes courage. Bravo to you for being so open with the ‘bee community. So many couples needlessly suffer in silence out of embarrassment or shame or any number of reasons. Thank you for speaking up, giving hope, and sharing your truth!
It took my DH and I 6 years to conceive and we now have an incredible, beautiful 5 month old son. He is worth every hardship, every bit of suffering, every single cent that it took to get him here.
Blessings, blessings, blessings to you!
Congratulations!!
And thank you so much for posting your baby journey here on Weddingbee. As painful as the experience was to go through and to share with, I’m so thankful that you did share it. Reading about the joy that finally comes when it goes happen really does provide me with a sense of hope as to what the future could bring for my husband and me. So thank you for that.

CONGRATS! I am sooooo excited for you!
All my love and prayers to you, Mr. Bee and baby bee!
That’s wonderful news! Congratulations! I’m so happy for you. ![]()
Congratulations! I totally cried with happiness for you reading this post. You, your hubby and your baby boy are in my prayers.
Congrats to Mr. and Mrs.Bee! And best wishes for all three of you!
congratulations!!! soo excited for all the new things to come!!! ![]()
Congratulations!!! I’m soooo happy for you. One night I went way way back towards the beginning of the weddingbee site to look for more ideas and I was heartbroken when I read about your miscarriages. So I am super super happy for you now =) Wishing lots of happiness for you, your husband, and future baby!
Mrs. Bee and Mr. Bee, a BIG congratulations to the both of you! We are nearly due-date twins, and both of us are expecting our first baby - a boy! You know, I have heard that it is good luck to have a boy as your first child. I wish you the happiest and healthiest pregnancy and delivery, and the wonderful adventure that comes when raising a child. The whole community is so excited to hear more about your baby adventures! CONGRATULATIONS, and all my best!
Congratulations Mr & Mrs Bee! I’m so happy to hear the good news! ![]()
Congrats to you and Mr. Bee!! That is such wonderful news. Good luck with the pregnancy…you will do great.
Congrats! You and Mr. Bee will be great parents. Wishing you guys a happy and healthy baby.
My Mother suffered 2 miscarriages before having me and almost 30 years later it’s still a sensitive topic. It’s amazing how folks make a woman’s reproductive organs their business.

I was so sorry to hear about your difficulties and loss. Please accept our (my husband is excited as well!) CONGRATULATIONS on Baby Bee! (I agree-I cannot stand being asked when we will start a family–it’s not even been 2 months since we’ve been married!)
Thought of you and baby bee this morning (I know random - thinking of people you’ve never met…) and wanted to let you know I hope you’re feeling well and that the pregnancy is going fantastically well!
Bee, I just logged in after almost a year away, and I’m so happy for you! I remember your previous posts and how hard it was on your and your guy. I’m so happy you made it to 19 beautiful and healthy weeks! I know I’m just one of many, many people out there who are excited for you. congratulations and I wish you the best time with your family of three (to bee).
All my best,
Angel
