A lot of ppl dont know our story so I will share a small piece of it.This is my fourth pregnancy. I have a sweet little boy that is getting closer to 3 everyday! But I wasn't one of those women who woke up one day and said I want a baby, and BAM! got pregnant. I lossed two sweet babies first. And one of the I carried for 18 weeks and 3 days, it was a girl.
Then there was Donavan Cade, I had him at 35weeks and 6 days. I was on fertility against my Doc's wishes. He was really worried about my emotional state from the loss of my daughter. While I was expecting Donavan I almost lost him several times, it was a very scary time. But I had a promise from God that everything was going to be ok. Donavan is quite the fighter. He is so strong and he loves life. He was in the NICU for 3 weeks before coming home on a breathing machine. He is my miracle baby, and I can't imagine life without him.
To get pregnant I have to be on fertilty drugs. I had to be on it for the last two pregnancy's.
In Jan of this yr, my husband and I started talking about if we wanted a second child. We knew what we would have to go thru. See my body doesn't seem to enjoy being pregnant. There are some serious things I have to go thru. I get Ges. Diab. I have to get a cercladge ( a stitch in the cervix to keep the baby from coming early) So I am considered high risk.
Well we did some blood test and more blood test and it was becoming very clear that once again if I wanted another baby it would only happen with fertility drugs and a LOT of Doc visits. Well we talked and each month we put it off again. I did two cycles of clomid and nothing happened. So I really knew my chances of another child was pretty slim.
Since we've moved to Colorado I have yet to get a family Doc so I just kept putting wanting another child on the back burner and we just talked about it. During this whole time of living here in Colorado my body started going thru some serious changes. I was kind of freaking out about it all. I was talking with Kelsey and my aunt pretty seriously about how I was worried about what was going on and really felt like I needed to get to a Doc soon.
Well sometime in the middle of Nov, Kels and I sat down and looked at a calendar and we noticed my body was actually starting to act totally normal and that some of the issues I was having may be gone. So we talked about trying to get pregnant in Dec. Well I was late on my cycle, which hasn't happened in months so I decided to do a test in the morning. I wasn't feeling pregnant at all just wanted to know what was going on. Well the next morning I did the test and went back to bed! I didn't even look at it because I knew there was no way I was pregnant! A few hours later I got up and saw the test and litterly freaked out and turned on every light I could. Then called Kelsey! I was soooo shocked I didn't even know how to react. So I called my mom too who of course thought it was awesome!
I didn't know if it was a false test, tho I never get positives at home, I usually have to go to a doc to get a positive. Then that night I was prayed over by someone who didn't know anything about my story and he said I see a new beginning and I want to pray over it. So of course I start crying knowing what he's talking about. I waited 4 days and took another test and it was soooo bright! I've only ever had very faint lines so this was so odd!
We went to a clinic to do another test and sure enough WE ARE SOOO PREGNANT! The same day we went to the clinc Kelsey gets a call from his boss that he is laying off 4 ppl and Kels is one of them. My first reaction is to just totally freak out. Here it is almost christmas and I am pregnant and I have a son, and this is just not a good time for anyone to be without a job. I stopped myself and said ok God, there is no way you would give me such an awesome miracle if you hadn't planed on providing for it, I know YOU have a plan. I was at peace almost instantly.
Kelsey and I got to talking and I said, you should call Jon ( a man in our church who is head manager at a local Wal-Mart) and talk to him about working there before this week is out. Well the more we talked the more we felt like he needed to pick up that phone and dial right that minute. SO he called, and Jon said this being so close to Christmas he was pretty sure nothing would be available til January. We just said ok, and Jon said let me make some calls and see what I can find out.
First thing Tues morning, less than 24 hours after Kelsey called Jon, Jon calls and says how soon can you get to the North Loveland Wal-Mart to fill out an app? Kels said I am on my way. Kelsey gets there fills out the app, in less than ten min, he gets a call on his cell saying how soon can we interview you? Kels said, I haven't left the store! She said give me ten minutes and come on back. She said I know yyou filled this out for a maintence job, but all your answers to these questions were manager level answers. I really don't think you would like to be a maintence man, how about working the dairy and frozen stock overnight instead. It pays more. Kels said yes! of course!
They sent him right then to do a drug test and THE NEXT DAY he went to orientation and tonight is his frist night at work. OK you N EVER hear of this, on the job in just days!!! It can take forever to get thru all the red tape at Wal-Mart. Wednesday Kelsey talked with Jon about it and his jaw dropped, he said never in all my years of working at WM has this ever happened.
God is so awesome and we are so thankful for all of his overflowing blessing on us.
