Alex is a disabled woman; she has a rare disease called spinal muscular atrophy, which affects every aspect of her daily life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The couple met on the dating site Bumble and hit it off from their first date. More than a year later, they were still going strong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">After seven months of dating, they announced they were expecting their first child together. However, Alex admitted that the pregnancy was not easy because she had to stop her treatment, which meant Noah became her full-time carer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When she is on medication, she is more physically independent. However, with clear boundaries, the couple has found a good routine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recalling their early days of dating, Alex and Noah&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/GsLimuE1SRE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">confessed<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;that their families were skeptical about their relationship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alex&#8217;s family did not immediately approve of Noah because of his history of drug addiction. He had been to rehab three times, but believes the third time helped him manage his condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, Noah&#8217;s family had a hard time understanding her dating a disabled person, but the more time Alex spent with them, the more they sympathized with her.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Why was the couple criticized?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although both families have learned to support the couple, they still get a lot of stares, \u201calmost to the point where people break their necks,\u201d&nbsp; Noah&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/GsLimuE1SRE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">says<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The constant stares make Noah uncomfortable, while Alex is not bothered by them. She explained that, having lived her entire life with a disability, she has become accustomed to people staring at her like that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Aside from the stares they received in public, Alex and Noah\u2019s relationship was always the subject of scrutiny on social media. People believed he had a \u201cdisability fetish,\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/GsLimuE1SRE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">assuming<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;his physical and sexual attraction to his girlfriend wasn\u2019t real.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the announcement of her pregnancy sparked more criticism. During their interview with \u201cLove Don&#8217;t Judge,\u201d the couple shared footage of their reaction to the positive pregnancy test.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the video, Alex had three positive tests lined up. At first, it was a mix of emotions for the mother-to-be, as it was not planned.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Noah admitted that they were both excited and nervous. Part of the worry was due to Alex&#8217;s delivery. He explained that she would be intubated, which was risky for someone with her condition. However, he was confident that the medical team would make sure she gave birth to a healthy baby.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The couple also received gifts from their supporters, one of which was a box of spinal muscular atrophy-friendly baby bottles, meaning they are light enough for Alex to hold and feed his son.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alex already had a presence on social media, where she shared various parts of her life, so sharing her pregnancy with her followers was exciting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But before the first ultrasound, the couple began to receive negative comments. Several people anticipated the ultrasound and expressed their suspicions that the pregnancy was false.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">So, when they went for their first ultrasound, the couple felt they had to prove their truthfulness to the world. These negative comments started pouring in when one of their videos went viral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Alex and Noah dressed up as construction workers for Halloween and held up a sign that read \u201cunder construction.\u201d TikTok users immediately lashed out at the couple, with some&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/GsLimuE1SRE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">telling<\/a>&nbsp;them &nbsp;to \u201cabort the baby\u201d because \u201cit might have your disease,\u201d&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;another comment&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/GsLimuE1SRE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">read .<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The mother-to-be confessed that it was the most hate she had ever received on social media, which she found mentally exhausting. People wondered what Alex would do if her boyfriend left her, and others blatantly said that her pregnancy should be \u201cillegal\u201d, doubting her ability to care for her future child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But the hate Alex and Noah received didn&#8217;t stop them from moving forward. The couple was excited about their next chapter as a family of three and wanted their love story to showcase the many different relationships that exist.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Like any other couple, Alex and Noah made it clear that they deserve to be loved and to start a family. That&#8217;s why, to those who didn&#8217;t believe in them, Alex&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/GsLimuE1SRE\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">said<\/a>&nbsp;: &#8220;We&#8217;re not going anywhere.&#8221;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What is the couple&#8217;s baby like?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Twenty-four hours before her baby was born, Alex updated her fans. She shared a touching collage of her pregnancy and expressed how blessed she felt to have created a life with the love of her life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The social media personality also informed her fans that she would give an update once she was in her ICU room. As promised, Alex&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CpfjewPMh-I\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">announced<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;the arrival of her precious baby girl, Ari Jacqueline Smith, born on March 6, 2023, at 34 weeks and two days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.es\/6e5309745ae3d45f1cd4b2c32df867caa505a57922cbfb0bafe973c3715c068d.png\" alt=\"Comments on Alex Dacy's daughter | Photo: Instagram.com\/wheelchair_rapunzel\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Comments on Alex Dacy&#8217;s daughter | Photo: Instagram.com\/wheelchair_rapunzel<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.amomama.es\/b7b07cf8273ed76df4473bb00bdff8f6eb0a304523d716f4b64f9f52fbf2d71d.png\" alt=\"Comments on Alex Dacy's daughter | Photo: Instagram.com\/wheelchair_rapunzel\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Comments on Alex Dacy&#8217;s daughter | Photo: Instagram.com\/wheelchair_rapunzel<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Holding his daughter for the first time was emotional and a feeling Alex&nbsp;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CpglzzhomJd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">said<\/a>&nbsp;&nbsp;was indescribable.
