About Diana

Welcome to Calm to Mom! Whether you are just thinking about starting a family, or well on your way, I’m happy you’re here!

​

I started my journey to motherhood in January of 2023, and it wasn’t the smooth, beautiful experience I expected. In just a year’s time, I’ve gotten pregnant naturally (after one month of trying), had every prenatal and genetic test under the sun, navigated pregnancy loss, completed egg retrievals and an IVF transfer, and now, eight months after I was expecting my first baby, I’ll be welcoming a baby girl into the world.

​

As women, we go through so much, and becoming a mother is no exception. The process sounds so simple - egg meets sperm and becomes a baby nine months later, but there are so many things that have to go right along the way. It's ultimately the closest thing to magic we can do, but the physical and emotional toll it takes can be isolating. 

 

I hope this blog can support you on your path to motherhood in whatever way you need. This will be a place for you to hear more about real experiences, like IVF. I’ll share tips and tricks to navigate conception and pregnancy. Most importantly, I’ll be honest about the journey, the good, the bad, and the ugly.
