I wasn't going to post this yet, but I'm too excited! I found out that I am pregnant! :bigsmile: Doing a happy dance!
Some of you know I miscarried last month (I was only a couple of weeks along). We've been trying since February. We just found out this morning so it hasn't sunk in yet. I have to admit that I am struggling with fear because I have had two miscarriages, and I have been cramping for a week. I trust the Lord so I know He has it all in His control, but I am human too. I know whatever happens He will give me the grace and strength to get through it! I need to stop worrying, so I can just enjoy it!
I still plan to use this site and continue to exercise and do my push ups and count calories, as I want to be in great shape and not gain too much weight! I will still be here! :happy:
One excited mommy

  • The amazing thing is how the human body does what it needs to do. Take care of yourself; rest; eat well and the journey will unfold before you. I love that ! I am done having kids--even though secretly or not so secretly would love to keep it up! javascript:add_smiley('heart','post_body')
