There are only 83 days left to get things together for baby. I have to correct the previous blog. ITS A GIRL!!!!!
So, if you are intereseted in helping get ready for baby, contact me.
I am not registered anywhere but we need any and everything. Don't have anything yet....so if you have anything you would like to donate for baby girl, we will gladly accept.
This is truly a blessing. Everyone says that about their child but to let you know how much of a blessing this is.....in 2003 I had my last child....I had her via an emergency c-section and she and I both had a 10% chance of living. She had a protein allergy and had to be on tube feeding formula until she was 1. She had all kinds of medical problems and now, you could never tell anything was EVER wrong with her.
As far as the affects on me, I had to have 3 blood trunsfusions which took 10 weeks to get due to having the second rarest blood type in America. I was very sick for a long time and when I did get the transfusions, I wound up having 17 kidney stones over a period of 3 years because of it. I had 5 kidney procedures to place and remove stents in my kidneys.
The doctors told me I would never be able to have any more children and if I did, it would kill me. So, you think to yourself, how could this be a blessing right??? Well, I have a very good medical staff around me and I was told, after tests, ultrasounds, and such that there is not a risk of me dying and that the baby is very healthy. All the things the other doctor saw and said are totally not there anymore. I am going to a midwife and am going to be able to have a normal...natural...no drug birth. I will be able to labor in the water but because of the previous c-section, I will have to come out of the water to actually deliver...just in case.
So, blessing after blessing, this baby is a miracle and I know that no matter what...God knows what he is doing... there is no such thing as a "mistake" when it comes to a baby coming into this world.
