"That's enough internet for today" has a different meaning today! I don't need to watch anything else, this is the best video I could have seen today! Congratulations you two!
@@LetsTalkIBD I fought back tears watching you! I am sure there are days you wonder if you make a difference or how many actually care but you DO make a difference and are so loved by many Maggie!
In your Intro your eyes are sparkling soooo much, I knew you had great news right away. I wish you the most boring and peaceful and healthy pregnancy! ❤
I’m so excited for you! I had a similar thing happen last year. Was told we could only get pregnant via IVF because my right tube was blocked and I had very low egg reserve. We decided to wait until the fall to do IVF and took the summer to get healthy. Found out we were naturally pregnant in July and in August we found out we were having twins! Now a proud mama to two perfect boys and couldn’t be happier. Sending you so much positivity and healthy baby vibes!
Hello pregnant lady!! What a gift to hear the joy in your voice. I needed this today. First, you both deserve this!! Second, I think that little peanut heard you talking about how much IVF was going to cost and he or she is a little frugal offspring and decided to save you the expense. SO HAPPY!!! ❤❤❤
Congratulations!!! As a mom of a young woman who has IBD and a long surgical history this gives HOPE to those who worry about if they can even have children with IBD and ostomy....❤❤❤❤❤
I remember feeling so proud of that little blob on the ultrasound screen. The same pride you feel when they learn to walk, go off to kindergarten, graduate from high school... it starts from the beginning!
🎉😂 I have tears all the way down my face right now. I will pray for you everyday till I see your next video and let us know what's going on. You two just are a wonderful couple and pray to God that he he's watching over you and your baby. Keep that beautiful smile Maggie!!
I mean I’m bawling, I’m so incredibly happy for you both. Congratulations!!! I found out I was pregnant in the x-ray department waiting for a barium study! I was like, come on just get on with it, it’s not possible I could be pregnant, I’ve been told I need IVF. (I had my colon removed and pouch surgery due to crohn’s, now have illeostomy and fed by TPN). I have been blessed with ‘only’ one but my goodness I’ve been BLESSED. He’s 24 now and I’m hoping I’ll be around for any grandchildren he may have. Stay strong and well, you’ve got this and enjoy it. ❤
I'm over here crying happy tears for you guys! What an awesome God we serve. Remember, it's in His time, not yours. He doesn't need IVF. So happy for you guys! ❤
OMG!!!! Im in tears!!!! Sooooooooo happy for you both!! I've been following you since your first video and no one deserves this more than you!! Positive thoughts Maggie!!! We need to have a you tube family baby shower!!!!!!! Congratulations Maggie and Zac!!!!
I found your channel last year when my father, who had just been diagnosed with stage 4 cancer, required a colostomy bag. Watching your videos helped me learn how to change his bag as his health deteriorated. I was really lost about the whole thing, but all your videos helped and I learned so much. My dad sadly passed away earlier this year, but I still watched your videos and followed your journey. Coming to YT today and seeing this video today made me really happy. I wish you and your family the best. All the blessing to the little one! Thank you for dedicating your time to teaching people and sharing bits of your life.
Oh my goodness! I have been watching you since you were still a nurse and living somewhere else with Zak. Have no idea how you originally popped up in my recommendations, as I don't have IBD/IBS issues, but I've been keeping tabs on you for a while now! I have never seen you so happy and emotional (in a GOOD way!!). Fingers crossed and prayers to you both for a happy, healthy baby. 😊
Wow! Congratulations Maggie, this is a blessing. So many couples say when they stop “trying” and stressing over it, they get pregnant. You did it! Blessing to you both. Can’t wait to be on this journey with you. So excited for you both.
Oh Maggie!!! Such wonderful news. May you enjoy each step of the way. I kind of understand your joyful fear. 47 yrs ago I was told I would never be able to bear children - 3 months later I was pregnant (long story over that). Had a normal healthy baby. 5 years later stopped having periods and my hope of a second child crashed. Then my Christmas present was to find out I got pregnant about 3 weeks before Christmas (when I had a friend run a pregnancy test to show I wasn't pregnant). God's grace is so good.
Well, I started a comment about being a fellow IVF patient (22 years ago) but decided to watch the video before commenting. I’m so glad I did!! I cried so many times during it. I’m so happy for you and praying♥️
I was told I wouldn't be able to become pregnant on my own because of PCOS. The Lord had mercy on me and I was blessed with a child without intervention or help. My child is 30 now and there is nothing on this planet that I enjoyed more than being her mother. May the Lord bless you on this journey.
Maggie! This is the BEST video that I have EVER seen you make! And absolutely the BEST news!!! You deserve this. It was meant to be. And the fact that you guys did this on your own is even better! YES !!! I'm so very happy for you both ❤❤❤ I also wanted to let you know that I had morning sickness every day for the first 3 months. But it's well worth it! I'm with you all the way on your journey.💛💛💛
Absolutely fantastic. You look very well. I hope your pregnancy is pleasurable for you. Morning sickness is pretty normal. I hope it diminishes after the 12 week point and your IBD remains under control.
Oh hon, I'm so happy for y'all!! I got pregnant with my last baby after my chron's diagnosis. It was a very rough pregnancy, but ginger cookies and, weirdly enough, baby food helped with the morning sickness. Ginger to help the nausea, but the baby food being really bland purees helped me to keep getting nutrients, even when i was throwing up. I'm rooting for you! I remember the anxiety before my first ultrasound, like am i crazy? Is there really a baby in there? It was such a relief to see him on the monitor and know it was really happening. I cant wait to see you being a mom. You will both make such amazing parents!
I'm so happy for you!!! I started watching you when my teenage son was diagnosed with UC and I have been a better mom to him because of you. And now you're going to be a mom! I will be praying for you and your precious baby. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful journey with us!
So happy for you!! That made me cry. You have been through so much and I am so happy things finally went right. You guys are going to be wonderful parents.
OMGGGG, YOU GUYS! I am so freakin over the moon for yall! I noticed a bit of hiatus a while back, and then in one of the last vlogs you said you had gained weight and there would be more on that later, and in the back of my mind I thought “maybeeee?” but then the rest of me thought she also mentioned how good her hydration was right now and so I was like we stan a well hydrated queen, but this is SO FRIGGIN EXCITING! Congrats! 🎉 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Hahaha yes I was hinting without trying to share too much! I've gained 4 lbs in the first trimester because eating is the only thing that makes me feel better 😅
Woohoo! Made me so happy to hear this news! People always say it happens when you stop focusing on trying so hard (that's what happened to my mum). I already had an inkling in your previous video that you might be pregnant, you're glowing! Congratulations! Rooting for the three of you!
You aren’t crazy. Your uterus is stretching. Happened with all my pregnancies but it always freaked me out at first. So happy for the two of you! From Dallas, Tx
Oh Maggie!!! I’m so happy for you. Such wonderful news. I’m praying for a healthy baby for you. Thanks for sharing your story with us. I can’t wait to see the next update. 🥰
I am so happy for yall i am so glad you get to have morning sickness ❤❤😂😂 yall are going to make the best parents ever .. God works miracles when you need them .. I will be praying for yall we wish yall the very best pregnancy. We love yall thanks for letting us be apart of this beautiful miracle...
CONGRATS MAGGIE!!! 🎉 We had suspicions from the length of the video and the title… also your being sick last month 😅 So excited to be with you on the journey!
Congratulations! You've been through so many medical challenges in your life, it's no wonder why you were so nervous. Not to mention, the onset of hormonal changes. I'm so happy for you and Zac. God bless you both. ❤😊👶
so happy for you guys!!!!!! Sometimes you can try TOO hard and be stressed out about it then you have a baby and never have another problem w/Pregnancy. There are so many stories of people who try for a long time then succeed and after the little one comes into the world BAM another pregnancy within a short time. Again so happy for you and Zach
Indeed, sometimes the best way for a couple to get pregnant is to just not try. Keeping track and actively trying and being all stressed about it, can make it more difficult to succeed. My parents tried for 3 years and had consultations around why they didn't get pregnant, and they were pretty much about to start IVF when mum tested positive. Then on October 19th in 1985, I said peekaboo to this world 😅 I was supposed to have one older sibling, but that pregnancy ended in miscarriage. I was only the 2nd positive pregnancy test my parents had. The trick my parents were told? Relax! Mum was even given a casette tape with relaxation exercises to relax and not feel so stressed about trying to get pregnant. It worked I have a feeling the "not trying and not actively tracking" is what made it succeed for Maggie and Zac, or at least it contributed. Do the deed because you want to, not because it's the potentially optimal day of the cycle
I am so happy for you guys! this is amazing news. Good thoughts and vibes being sent your way. You are doing so good girl. It's cool your partner was so confident and like a rock for you to hold onto in the scares and worries. Totally teared up with you throughout this video...I literally feel that anxiety..Im so proud of you!
Congrats beautiful girl 🩷🩷 Congrats Zac 💙💙 I resisted the urge to go directly to the comments and see what was up. But it was hard! I am crying happy tears right along with you.
Congratulation to you both. We have been following your channel for sometime. We will pray for you that all goes well. May God Bless you three. From Rosemary and Dave NS Canada 🇨🇦
OMG YAY!! I told you I conceived after my ruptured ectopic, and I felt you would too! If your LMP was 8/2, you must be due about May 9. Yes, I can figure out a due date in 2 seconds. Mother's Day is May 11! This is your year! This news for you and Zak, I can't stop smiling and tearing up! You guys are going to be the coolest, most fun, most loving parents! 💗💙💗💙
Just had apr surgery for rectal cancer, had my rectum, anus, back wall of my vagina, uterus, ovaries and fallopian tubes removed. I'm passed child bearing age, have 2 grown sons, and I am so blessed. I have been following you because of the ostomy information, and have been anxious for your baby journey. Congratulations!!! I wish you a wonderful healthy happy pregnancy and easy delivery ❤
What an amazing, wonderful blessing❣️I am over the moon happy for you and Zack. Congratulations ❣️I will keep you in my prayers for a healthy, happy pregnancy..
I am doing the happy dance with my hubbie for you!! Started watching you years ago when we first heard he would need an ostomy. Been here for the highs and lows and all bag changes in between ;) Sending all the love and here’s to good health and an easy pregnancy ❤
OMG! I am so so happy for you both! I had commented before the world needs more people like you as parents. Your both going to be amazing! Know one deserves this happiness more. CONGRATULATIONS!
Oh Maggie! I’ve been following your journey for years - your videos have helped me through my own UC illness and surgeries. This video has made me so happy - what wonderful news for you and Zak! I love that God has timed this for you in such a surprising and unexpected way - and so very thankful that you have been spared more hospital visits. This pregnancy is made even more amazing after what your body has been through! Please know you and Zak and being upheld in prayer - even from the other side of the world (Australia). Heather ❤
The best news!!! I'm SO HAPPY for you!!!! I've been praying for you! Continued prayers!! ❤️🙏❤️ I cried all the way through your video! You are glowing with happiness!!💗
Congratulations!! 🎉 My husband and I had been trying for about 18 months. We had just had a consultation with a fertility clinic and I was supposed to call them two weeks later when my period started so they could do some labs…and then it never started. The labs we ended up doing were progesterone and HCG. 😊 36 weeks along with our first baby and can’t wait to meet him soon! I pray you have a wonderful, smooth pregnancy with no complications and a healthy baby!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR THIS DAYYYYY AHHHHHH I AM SOOOOO HAPPY FOR YOU!! Did you know in your video showing us your wedding outfits? Because during that video I was like, "Hmmm....she looks pregnant? IS SHE PREGNANT??" Not your body really, you just seemed happy and glowing and said something about painting in the guest room. CONGRATULATIONS!!! You did it!!! I am manifesting the happiest healthiest most normal and beautiful pregnancy for you!!!
I’m so excited for y’all! I originally found your IUI videos back when I was expecting (we got pregnant on our second round of IUI) and have followed your journey since then. Can’t wait to see the updates!
Congratulations!! I’m so happy for you. I’ve been praying for you that you’ll get pregnant and have kids. I hope and pray baby stays put until it’s time for them to come out. I can’t wait for all the pregnancy content. ❤ You guys are going to be great parents!!
Maggie, I am so happy for you and Zak. What a beautiful miracle. Life found a way to happen despite the previous pregnancy and all the heartbreaking things that happened after you found out it was ectopic. Love you and prayers to God to keep you healthy and enjoying the journey. It is hard not to let the past cloud our present. I pray you may enjoy this process. So cool you and hubby have already seen the baby. ❤🙏
From the bottom of my heart, congratulations Maggie!!!!!!!!!! No one deserves this more than you and Zac! What great parents you will be and what a blessed little child to have you as their parents❤. Many blessings to you and your little family 💕
Babies come when you are relaxed and you weren't going to try til October, so your body wasn't stressed. Like animals, they don't have babies when they are stressed. So happy for you both. Can't wait to see your baby, I have been watching from the start. Feel like an Auntie. Congratulations.❤
I started watching and two minutes into the video I knew it!! And I was so tempted to just go read comments to see if I was right but I didn’t! I wanted to hear it from you and enjoy watching you rejoice in your experience! Congrats Maggie! You deserve this SOO much! You have given so much light and hope to many of us. The is the least God can give you in return for all the goodness you bring to other people. You are forever one of my biggest lights! I say it in every comment I leave on your videos but you brought so much hope when I needed it the most! SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!
......IUI ?? Your uterus said "hold my beer"! LOL CONGRATULATIONS....all in God's timing. Praying for you and Zack....happy, healthy pregnancy and happy healthy baby.
Congratulations, so very much, i wish you a very uneventful pregnancy from across the pond, from a fellow IBD'er who declined IVF on the NHS, and i am so thankful of my decision. Enjoy every moment of being a Mother. Cannot wait for an update on how you are getting along!
This baby is a blessing and miracle from God, he heard your prayers, Thank you Father God for this precious blessing, miracle baby for this beautiful couple. In your name I pray AMEN☮️🕊️✝️🙏🏼❣️❣️❣️❣️
Huge congratulations!!!! I am so thrilled that you are pregnant, and the good old fashioned natural way!!!! 🎉👶🏻🍼🎉 I pray that you have a perfect pregnancy and the morning sickness goes away very soon. 🙏🏻 Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us. Much love. ❤❤❤
Congratulations!!! I'm so so excited for you! It's about time you body did something that brought you joy and didn't add to your stress. You SO deserve this win! I'm so happy for you both! I'm going to hope that everything goes smoothly. I'm so hopeful and so happy.
Maggie and Zac I am so happy for the two of you. I was told "We make plans and God laughs " You both deserve some happy news and this is amazing!!! Big surprise! You are going to make wonderful parents. That I know for sure. Praying for you. God has plans for you and this little one. His timing is right on time. Always. Big hugs and many blessings.
Congratulations! I've been following you for years after my cancer diagnosis, my colostomy, and chemo treatments. We tried ivf, transfered, and it failed. I had a reversal. We continued to try on our own and nothing. I gave up. Then it happened, and Im currently 3 months pregnant with our little miracle. It's still so unbelievable that it's real.
I am already tearing up with these comments. Thank you so much. ❤
I am so freaking happy for you omggggggg :)!!!!!!
Congratulations are you going to find out gender 🙂

Oh Maggie! I’ve been following your journey for years - your videos have helped me through my own UC illness and surgeries. This video has made me so happy - what wonderful news for you and Zak! I love that God has timed this for you in such a surprising and unexpected way - and so very thankful that you have been spared more hospital visits. This pregnancy is made even more amazing after what your body has been through! Please know you and Zak and being upheld in prayer - even from the other side of the world (Australia). Heather ❤
The best news!!! I'm SO HAPPY for you!!!! I've been praying for you! Continued prayers!! ❤️🙏❤️ I cried all the way through your video! You are glowing with happiness!!💗
Congratulations!! 🎉 My husband and I had been trying for about 18 months. We had just had a consultation with a fertility clinic and I was supposed to call them two weeks later when my period started so they could do some labs…and then it never started. The labs we ended up doing were progesterone and HCG. 😊 36 weeks along with our first baby and can’t wait to meet him soon! I pray you have a wonderful, smooth pregnancy with no complications and a healthy baby!
I HAVE BEEN WAITING SO LONG FOR THIS DAYYYYY AHHHHHH I AM SOOOOO HAPPY FOR YOU!! Did you know in your video showing us your wedding outfits? Because during that video I was like, "Hmmm....she looks pregnant? IS SHE PREGNANT??" Not your body really, you just seemed happy and glowing and said something about painting in the guest room.
CONGRATULATIONS!!! You did it!!! I am manifesting the happiest healthiest most normal and beautiful pregnancy for you!!!
I did :) thankfully was able to hide it other than not feeling great!
So happy and so honored to get to share your journey. So looking forward to future post.
The first baby sent you this gift 💯
Yes! ❤
I’m so excited for y’all! I originally found your IUI videos back when I was expecting (we got pregnant on our second round of IUI) and have followed your journey since then. Can’t wait to see the updates!
Congratulations!! I’m so happy for you. I’ve been praying for you that you’ll get pregnant and have kids. I hope and pray baby stays put until it’s time for them to come out. I can’t wait for all the pregnancy content. ❤ You guys are going to be great parents!!

Warmest congratulations - you and Zac so deserve all the joy in the world. Wishing you a safe and happy journey over the coming months. Big hugs.
Maggie, I am so happy for you and Zak. What a beautiful miracle. Life found a way to happen despite the previous pregnancy and all the heartbreaking things that happened after you found out it was ectopic. Love you and prayers to God to keep you healthy and enjoying the journey. It is hard not to let the past cloud our present. I pray you may enjoy this process. So cool you and hubby have already seen the baby. ❤🙏
Thank you so much Cheryl! 💓
From the bottom of my heart, congratulations Maggie!!!!!!!!!! No one deserves this more than you and Zac! What great parents you will be and what a blessed little child to have you as their parents❤. Many blessings to you and your little family 💕
Babies come when you are relaxed and you weren't going to try til October, so your body wasn't stressed. Like animals, they don't have babies when they are stressed. So happy for you both. Can't wait to see your baby, I have been watching from the start. Feel like an Auntie. Congratulations.❤
I started watching and two minutes into the video I knew it!! And I was so tempted to just go read comments to see if I was right but I didn’t! I wanted to hear it from you and enjoy watching you rejoice in your experience! Congrats Maggie! You deserve this SOO much! You have given so much light and hope to many of us. The is the least God can give you in return for all the goodness you bring to other people.
You are forever one of my biggest lights! I say it in every comment I leave on your videos but you brought so much hope when I needed it the most!
SO HAPPY FOR YOU!!

Maggie and Zac I am so happy for the two of you. I was told "We make plans and God laughs " You both deserve some happy news and this is amazing!!! Big surprise! You are going to make wonderful parents. That I know for sure. Praying for you. God has plans for you and this little one. His timing is right on time. Always. Big hugs and many blessings.
Congratulations! I've been following you for years after my cancer diagnosis, my colostomy, and chemo treatments. We tried ivf, transfered, and it failed. I had a reversal. We continued to try on our own and nothing. I gave up. Then it happened, and Im currently 3 months pregnant with our little miracle. It's still so unbelievable that it's real.
