Transition.....

First, I want to apologize for the nearly month long hiatus I took from posting to this blog. Blogging was a New Year’s resolution, and I refuse to let myself fail at this. Unfortunately, I’m bad with transition, and I’ve come to a turning point in my blog that transition is a must.

I would like to joyfully introduce you to our “bean in the oven” as we like to lovingly refer to it or my dog Lola’s “birthday baby,” who is due 10/21/12, 1 week after her birthday.

This is a photo of the bean at 8.5 weeks; the head is to the left and the rump to the right. It was a quite the active little baby that morning and we’re fortunate to have a follow up ultrasound tomorrow and to get to see the bean again.

I’m not out of the “woods” in terms of being done with the first trimester, but I have graduated from my fertility practice back to my OBGYN practice. At this point in time, we’re so connected with this little person that there’s no denying he/she exists and is ours. And with that, I wanted to share our news with you!

For this child I prayed and the Lord has granted me my petition which I asked of him.”- 1 Samuel 1:27

So, I face a blog turning point. For those of you who have followed me "one step at a time" throughout my journey with infertility, I thank you for taking each step with me and ask that you continue to follow our journey in pregnancy and parenthood. I will continue to write with truth, faith and hope.

For those of you following my blog still struggling with infertility, I continue to pray for you each and every day. Stay strong and maintain faith that in all things God does, he does with great purpose, as our sovereign God. He does have a plan for you and he will provide all things in his time.
