To the few followers I do have on my blog..I want to fill you guys in on whats been going on with me the past week and a half. It all started on the 15th of this month..when I took my first pregnancy test and it was positive!!!!! I was so happy..and..so scared at the same time! All my life I thought I never wanted to have any kids of my own..I guess not being around babies when I was growing up plus being an only child had alot to do with that. But then this past Christmas..the "baby bug" officially bit me..unexpectidly I might add. All I could think was how it felt like there was "something" missing..and I immediately knew what that something was. But anywho..we told a few choice people close in our lives of our positive test in the days following..but sort of wanted to wait on going totally "public" with our exciting news until we were 100% certain.
Then last thursday came. I started experiencing some bleeding (dont worry..I wont go into details) and panicked, pretty much. Damon was off for the weekend and as always..we headed out on friday. Still concerned..while we were out I told him I felt that I should go to the hospital and be checked out..so thats what we did. We were in the ER friday for a good 10+ hours until the wee hours of saturday morning. They told us that I am indeed pregnant..just not very far along from what they could tell. They also said that my bleeding could be normal and I'll be fine..or it could be the start of a miscarriage..so they told me to rest..and have my blook taken twice this week to see if my hormone levels continue to rise before my doctors appointment. I have my doctors appointment this thursday to find out if I'll be ok or not.
This definately wasn't what I had in mind when I first found out I was pregnant about breaking the news on my blog! But this is where God has us at for the time being..and I know my bloggy friends are some of the best in the world...so I wanted to share with you all the "news" and ask for your sincere prayers right now. We know that God knows what is best..and we're trusting in Him with all of this. I hope you will pray with us for me, my hubby, and our unborn baby. I will do my best to keep you guys posted in the coming days...until then..I'll be relaxing..and praying.
