The Hardest Thing She Ever Did

As you might imagine, the hardest part for Natasha was keeping a secret from her husband for so long. She’s never lied to him before, and never for months and months at a time. “I found out about a week after he left. I didn’t believe it,” she told ABC News. “I took the pregnancy test again, and I was like, ‘Oh no way.'” By that point, Natasha was already eight weeks pregnant.

Natasha felt super excited about her pregnancy and wanted to tell her husband the good news immediately after an e-mail. However, on second thought, she realized she would prefer to tell him in a special way. “I e-mailed him back and said, ‘I just miss your voice.’ That’s when I decided I’m going to document it with weekly belly pictures for him so he wouldn’t miss it.”
