On January 25, Bryce, Cooper and I went down to the clinic at 8:30 am to have my blood drawn. This was our pregnancy test. I was so sick (nerves) on the way home. I didn’t say a word almost the whole time. At 12:30 that day, the nurse called and told us that we were pregnant. We were so excited, emotional, and thankful for this blessing and miracle that has happened.
Our due date is October 2. They said that my numbers were really high on my blood work. Anything over a 100 is pregnant and I was at a 400.
We are very excited, yet it still doesn't feel like I am really pregnant. Bryce and I feel very humble. This is a blessing that has taken 7 years to happen, and as you know, it hasn't been easy for us. While I am happy to be pregnant, I have also been on the other side of the spectrum and I know how if feels to have infertility and all that goes along with that trial. It is a difficult thing to go through and I want to make sure that I am sensitive and thoughtful about those who are struggling with infertility. Bryce and I know that for some reason, we are being blessed with this opportunity right now and we are so thankful to our Heavenly Father. We are so grateful for the things that we have learned along the way, and we know that we have much more to learn.
