Taken after my anatomy scan this past Monday at 18 weeks pregnant. I had just eaten a big meal, but I am definitely showing now!

When I found out I was pregnant after losing two babies, the baby’s gender was the last thing on my mind. My mindset has been: “I’ll pray for a healthy baby, and God can choose the gender.”

I didn’t always think like that though. Pre-miscarriage Grace was scared to have a boy at all. I wanted only girls. My miscarriages humbled me and showed me what really mattered when it came to all things pregnancy though.

Even though I mostly had the better mindset, I still had a hormonal evening where the thought of having a boy worried me. I turned to my husband, “What if it IS a boy? I can’t have a boy. I am too girly.” In my husband’s blunt and serious fashion, he quickly responded, “What are you talking about? You loved nannying those two little boys.” (Backstory: I became a full-time nanny instead of going to college. I watched a toddler boy and a newborn baby boy for two years. I LOVED it.)

I was back to not worrying or caring, just excited to find out.

So, it should come as no surprise at all that I am in fact having a baby boy.
