I AM PREGNANT!! Praise the Lord!

My sweet rainbow baby is due July 2025.

It truly feels so unreal to come on here and tell you all that I am pregnant. I wrote so many posts full of so much pain and questioning what my future held. After two devastating losses, I could only dream of the day that I would come on here with this news.

It makes me so emotional to finally write this.

At just six weeks, my little tadpole baby had a strong heartbeat.

My blood pressure was high that day from intense anxiety. My nurses and doctor were rushing around to hurry and give me an ultrasound. Both of my nurses told me, “I have been praying for you all day.”

That’s when I knew God was in that room. My husband clung to my hand, and I held my breath as the doctor inserted the ultrasound device.

There was an immediate flicker. “I see a heartbeat!!” exclaimed my doctor. I finally took my first real breath since finding out that I was pregnant weeks before.
