Prayers.

After a vasectomy reversal, my husband's sperm count was still too low. Dare I hope? 18 years ago, we were poor and pregnancy tests weren't cheap. I went to our medical clinic. They botched the test and it came back negative. I thought I must be dying of something. My husband got paid on the last day on the month, so I bought a pregnancy test. First urine the next morning: POSITIVE! This was the FIRST day of the month--- the month of April. Don't announce a pregnancy on April Fool's Day. People just don't believe you.

My birthday was 2 weeks later. It was like God was saying, "You're not just 30, you're PREGNANT!" I think He told me that while I was hanging over the toilet...

I think about Sarah of the Bible and other women who didn't have the convenience of a pregnancy test. It could take months for them to know for sure. And when Sarah went through menopause, after missing a few periods, did she think "maybe now?" No, not yet. When she was old and Lord told her she would have a son, no wonder she laughed in disbelief.

I will keep you in my prayers.

Thank you so much for the prayers. If you know any prayer warriors, please ask them to say a few words for our little one. This is my fifth pregnancy, so I'm really hoping this baby makes it.
