A Blessing From God.....

I have to begin by saying that this is a tough subject for me because I have had  such a rough journey trying to carry a baby to full term. When my husband and I first begin trying to conceive I unfortunetly had two miscarriages back to back. My doctor finally figured out that this was due to a fibroid that was on my uterus and he quickly removed it. After three months we were allowed to start trying again and by suprise we got pregnant very quickly with a precious baby girl named Kaylee Alexis. Everything was going great until week 25 I went into preterm labor due to an incompetent cervix. Sadly my little girl got her angel wings shortly after birth. This was a very rough time for me and my husband and it took us some time to heal, but we always knew we wanted to try again. After almost year we were very suprised to learn that we were pregnant again. We prayed every night to be able to get this sweet little baby into the world healthy. It took being on a numerous amount of medications, a cerclage to keep my cervix closed, and weekly progesterone shots, but on January 14, 2010 God blessed us with a full term beauiful baby girl named Sadie Alivia. I was complely speechless when she cam into our lives and my heart still melts everytime I look at her. My husband and I are truly grateful to have her in our lives. Since Sadie was born we have attempted to conceive once again and unfortunetly my body failed me at 22 weeks and my son Bentley Wess received his angel  wings shortly after birh. My husband and I have been through quite a process when it comes to having babies and we realize what a gift they truly are. Although I miss my sweet little babies I know in my heart it was not Goodbye because I will see them later and one day we will all be together as a family!! So make sure to hug and kiss your babies every night and tell them how much you love them!!

I am amazed at women who are able to pull off homebirths. The birthing process is such an emotional time in a womans life and should be cherished, but it is also very painful. I have always wondered just how they are able to give birh with no pain medicine because I was not strong enough to pull that off with any of my pregnancies! I have a lot of respect for women who pull off home births and women who give birth with no pain medicine!!
