This has been the slowest yet enjoyable time so far! I have had some cramping...thought it was over. I have been tired, hungry (I ate two jars of pickles in two days), I have to use the restroom a lot, crying, and probably the most shocking symptom bloating. I look and feel like I have gained 10 pounds since the transfer.
I decided on Memorial Day that I would take a test and just see if it said anything. I cried most of the day and was emotional lol. I took the test that afternoon and it was positive 6dp3dt. I of course had to continue testing and the lines kept getting darker and darker! I had been saving one pregnancy test for almost two years now. It's not a line test but it says that beautiful word pregnant! So on 7dp3dt I decided to take the digital test that afternoon. After almost 2 minutes it popped up PREGNANT! Wow...I started crying and fell to my knees. Is this real? Is it to early? On 8dp3dt I continued my testing and the line kept getting darker and I had another digital pregnant. So over the course of the past 7 days...I've taken 28 pregnancy tests. Crazy...I know. But when you wait almost 3 years to see that word it's worth it!!!
Our official beta is tomorrow!! I'm so nervous and excited to see our numbers. If I'm not pregnant then something is seriously wrong in here haha.
Grace is God doing for us what we could never do and what we will never deserve!
Devotional from the book "Expecting Praying for your Child's Development Body & Soul":
This week's devotional is about Conception!
"My frame was not hidden from you when I was made in the secret place. When I was woven together in the depths of the earth your eyes saw my unformed body. All the days ordained for me were written in your book before one of them came to be." -Psalm 139:15-16
Father, my baby is here! He/she exists! I believe with all my heart that life begins at conception, and my child has been conceived! I can hardly wrap my mind around it. I know scientists call it a zygote, nothing more than a bunch of cells dividing again and again, but I know I have a miracle inside my body. A baby! Part of his/her daddy, part of me. And in nine short months, I'll hold him/her in my arms. I praise you for the mystery and miracle of life! As our baby's cells divide, I can't help but think of the other kinds of dividing he/she will do someday. He/she will have to divide truth from lies. He/she will need to divide his/her time among his/her many responsibilities. And someday, he/she will divide-break away- from his/her daddy and I and cleave to his/her spouse. God, please bless our child with discernment and wisdom. May he/she know the difference between good and evil, truth and falsehood. And may he/she never be separated-divided-from your love.
