Hello there! Just wanted to let you know that you and your husband are in my prayers. I know how hard it is to wait, especially when your timing is not the same as God's! My hubby and I tried for over a year to get pregnant and we found out on a Sunday that I was pregnant. On Monday, I miscarried the baby. It was hard for both of us, but I was upset and angry. I couldn't understand why a good Christian, married couple would loose a baby when teenagers are out there getting pregnant who didn't even want a baby. I had to turn to God and understand that He had a reason for this, even though I would never understand why. Maybe it was to help other women who have miscarried. So after my miscarriage, we waited 3 months to start trying agian. Two months after that, we got pregnant. Again, my trust in the Lord had to come in. I got scared at anything that felt wierd or that I thought wasn't normal. I'm sure my OB/GYN and the nurses got tired of me calling them After 9 months of being scared, nervous, anxious, excited and every other emotion. I gave birth to a healthy baby boy. Then 3 1/2 years later I gave birth to a healthy, baby girl. And I know how hard it is to be patient, especially when it seems everyone around you is having a baby. A Bible verse that got me through is Jeremiah 29:11. It's below on my signature!
