Heather Rae Young is counting down to when she can hold her "miracle baby" in her arms as she progresses with her pregnancy journey, which she has always been open about.
From her latest Instagram update, she openly shared her experience, detailing the stages of her journey, from the initial IVF treatments to a shocking natural conception.
Heather Rae Young Says Her Pregnancy Journey Has Been Far From Normal
Heather was all about her partner Tarek El Moussa and her "miracle baby" as she began her message with "Dream man, miracle baby," accompanied with a red heart emoji.
She then noted that, as her fans were aware, her pregnancy journey had been far from ordinary, but her story was the same.
The soon-to-mother, who has been open about her journey, went on to describe her experience from the early stages, saying she and her husband had been doing IVF and were unaware of what life had in store for them. She explained:
"[We] went from having 7 frozen eggs to being told we were only supposed to get 2 follicles to then being able to get 8 to…having an all natural pregnancy."
Heather added that life was unpredictable as one could plan and try to make things happen, but what was meant to be would always be.
She could not help but call her baby a "miracle baby" and noted that "the odds were definitely against us;" however, all that mattered to the expecting parents was that it happened.
Above the beautiful message, the former Playboy Playmate of the Month uploaded three photos of herself with Tarek on a beach and all over each other.
The images were monochrome and captured by professional photographer Christina Cernik, whom the real estate tagged on the first slide.

Tons of fans were all over the lovely post as they flooded it with likes and love emojis in the comments section, with several expressing their excitement for the couple.
Having a baby certainly warranted the numerous congratulatory messages that had been rolling since Heather initially announced her pregnancy.
At the time, she also shared her husband's reaction to the fantastic news, which The Blast reported, revealing how over the moon Tarek was to be a father.
The September-born entertainer disclosed the news to her husband by giving him a box that he tried to open without knowing a pregnancy test stick was in it.
Upon opening the box and finding the stick, he was shocked and confirmed from his wife if she was indeed pregnant, which she was.
He was on cloud nine at that moment as he embraced Heather with an intimate hug. In addition, he got to see the box's other contents, comprising two other test sticks and a "cute bear" onesie.
While handing the box to Tarek, the California-born actress narrated the lengthy tale of how she found out she was with child, crediting First Response Pregnancy test kits for enabling her to find out early.
She revealed that she was initially late on her period but was not so keen on getting tested as she did not believe she was pregnant.

The expectant mother eventually got the test and took three to be sure; all the same, she and Tarek were genuinely grateful that they all showed positive (pregnant).
The El Moussas Mark Third Anniversary Of Meeting With Lovely Narratives Of Their First Encounter
Not long ago, the adorable real estate couple celebrated their third anniversary of meeting each other, which coincided with the widely celebrated Fourth of July.
The Blast reported that the twosome honored their milestone with heartfelt messages expressing how their lives changed for the better since they met.
In Tarek's words, he met his now-wife when he was "out boating" and knew immediately that she was the one he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.
He added that the holiday had always been his favorite but coming across the beautiful realtor during the same period made it more special.
At the same time, Heather felt the same way as she detailed her side of the story revealing that they bumped into each other while riding on separate boats in Newport.
The duo was unaware of each other's presence until the blonde-haired beauty jumped into the 40-year-old's boat, and instantly, their lives took a fairytale turn, altering forever.
