I have been ducked off! In part due to the furlough because I fasted from social media and it's taken me some time to get back in the groove of reconnecting lol but also because I have been growing life inside of me and it has been kicking my butt!!! :)
Whew! I don't know where to begin! I'm speechless daily just reflecting on how faithful God is. I stretched this appointment because I wanted to get beyond the 7/8 weeks when I miscarried this summer. I wish I could've gone longer because I didn't want to emotionally invest in something that wasn't meant to be. But I prayed harder and stayed focused on God's promises:
"He will love you and bless you and increase your numbers. He will bless the fruit of your womb, the crops of your land—your grain, new wine and olive oil—the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks in the land he swore to your ancestors to give you. You will be blessed more than any other people; none of your men or women will be childless, nor will any of your livestock be without young." (Deuteronomy 7:13, 14 NIV)
I got these in my spirit because the enemy is a lurker! Twice during this time he has used my gift of dreaming to make me fearful through dreams of me miscarrying. I woke up confessing Psalm 91!
Today during my first peek at the little one who has given me a food aversion for like everything, I saw a very active, upside down, strong heart rate baby who is measuring 4 days earlier than my calculation! Due Date: May 28th, 2014 :)
I have a library post coming and I'm going to write about being pregnant with a toddler (pray for me warriors) but for every prayer, phone call, text message; I love you all! Thank you so much! Please keep us in your prayers as we continue to pray for a healthy, full term pregnancy!
Happy November and here's to 30 days of thankfulness!!
All my love,
Caneeka
