On Being Pregnant. . .

I would have to agree with most that you can hear about pregnancy all of your life but until you experience it is truly hard to comprehend the awesomeness of the experience.Of course, if I had written about pregnancy during the first 14 weeks I might not have the same perspective. There were many days that first few months where I asked myself why it is I wanted to be pregnant. But thankfully God saw to provide relief and I have been enjoying it ever since.

I really do feel so blessed. I was just chatting with Ben today about the things in our life that have changed already from being pregnant. One of the most amazing things (that I wasn’t necessarily expecting) is how much deeper our relationship with each other has become through the experience. I know I am saying it alot but I am so amazed at the blessings God has given me through Ben. . .I could go on and on.  .  . but I will spare you the long diatribe.

At any rate. We are at 32 weeks and doing good. My history of high blood pressure threatens to complicate things but we continue to pray that the baby would keep growing and that I will make it it to full term. Of course, that means Ben needs your prayers in helping me to sit still. So if there is anything that you could be praying for at this time it would be for God to keep his healing hand over this pregnancy and for me to keep some common sense about what I should and shouldn’t be doing.

Okay, we will update pictures as we get a little closer. Enjoy!
