Kevin and I decided to start trying for another baby about 4 or 5 months ago. I thought for sure we would get pregnant on the first month of trying but that was not the case. I then began a journey of letting go and letting God. Each month it got easier to learn we were not pregnant. Not because I wanted it any less but because I was finding contentment in the life God was blessing me with. Kevin and I have had time together, we have a beautiful daughter that I can spend so much time with and we are busy with Kevin's business.
So this past week when I knew my period was due to start I thought nothing of the possibility of being pregnant. Until I had some spotting a few days before I was due to start it had not really crossed my mind. I was actually annoyed that I had that because I was ready for another cycle to start and us to keep moving forward and pregnancy was on my mind again. Once I was a couple days late I decided to get the test. I dread taking those things. I feel like a negative result is such a slap in the face. I was SO excited and shocked when I took it and the two lines popped up right away! I immediately said a prayer for the little life inside me. I can't wait to start this journey again!!
Kevin and I plan to have another home birth. He will keep a very close eye on me to be sure I don't need an adjustments so that my body is working at it's best for the baby. No drugs. No unnecessary interventions. Just us having a baby. If you would like to follow along with us we would love it. There may be times there is too much detail so beware! I am excited to journal this time in our lives. I am even excited for the first trimester blues because I know right after that I will feel my sweet baby moving around inside me and that is totally worth it. And in March of next year we will hold our little miracle in our arms and become a family of FOUR!
