Miscarriage and general update

Numbers went down considerably. I was so numb I didn't hear what the nurse said. 400 something. Anyway, the good news is the doctor didn't think it was tubal. Praise the Lord. Well, we may not be filling the earth with our multiplying, however we're putting a little dent in Heaven! I am very grateful that we can still conceive, so I'm not completely dysfunctional-just a little. God be praised for all things.

For accountability's sake. I am still working on memorizing Psalm 25. I've made it through verse 5, but need to look it again, because when I tried to go through it in my mind last night at bedtime, some of the words didn't sound quite right.

Interesting tidbit. The minds of people who didn't memorize Scripture as a child start slowing down at age 20, but children who did still have high recall at age 35. I wonder if it's just spending time memorizing, or if the key is in memorizing Scripture. Of course, I can't think of anything more important to spend great deals of time memorizing than Scripture. Well, I've definitely missed the boat; my mind definitely has been going down hill for many years. My children have been memorizing Scripture for years. I'll have to ask them at 30 how there brains are. I've always claimed it was them stealing brain cells during pregnancy. Funny I started having babies at 20. hmmmmmm

DM- If you've been emailing me, I'm not getting them. You can try the old one again, it is still good till the end of the month.

Fare thee well.

4 Weeks 4 Days Pregnant and Bleeding (Long... Miscarriages mentioned)

I found out Sunday evening 9/9/07 that I was expecting. I was already 1 to 3 days late and was only spotting. (I have very short cycles). My temps had been bobbing up and down for several days, so I was sure if I was pregnant I was heading for another miscarriage. The Fact + test was light, but not faint. (I get light tests even at the same time as a blood test hcg level of 124.)

I gave it all to the Lord. I want the Lord's will for this baby. If it is His will for baby to go home with Him, then that is preferable. Don't get me wrong, I desperately want another child to love. However, I have done this too many times. God has blessed us with 4 beautiful children. Our 4th was a miracle after many miscarriages (and a tubal reversal). Sadly I became angry with losing some of the early ones that I didn't even write them down and do not know how many I have had. I think there were at least 6 maybe 8. I have had one since JG (2) was born. I spotted for 11 days that time and then started to bleed heavy. I didn't have a light test until just a few days before and then an almost negative test the day the bleeding started.

Back to the present. I took another test Monday morning, sure that it would get lighter. It was just the same. By 9am however the pink and brown spotting had turned to bright red. By afternoon it was like a light period. I was sure I had lost the baby, but hubby wanted to go to town and get some progesterone cream. I used the cream Monday night, but was still bleeding.

Tuesday, yesterday: I went and bought more hpts. 2 Fact + and 3 ept. (They were very cheap at the salvage store, so I bought some for another time. ) I took a Fact + just to be sure that I had lost the baby so I could stop using the progesterone cream. This is how your mind works after so many miscarriages. I asked God for an accurate result. Praise God, even after the bleeding, the new positive test was noticeably darker than the last one!!!! Thank you Jesus for letting me have one more day with your little blessing.

Well, here I am on Wednesday, still bleeding like a medium flow period and with yet another positive test. I don't know what tomorrow will bring. If anyone out there in cyberspace who claims Jesus Christ as Savior is reading this, please pray for my little one, and for peace in my and dh's hearts.

Fare thee well. Maybe another time I will talk about my tubal reversal and our miracle baby.
