Leah, your message brought tears of joy to my own eyes! Congratulations, Mom! :) :) :)

We will be here for you. I know you will have some rough things to go through, but God will sustain you, and He wants you back.

God is so good! He gave you and your girlfriend this relationship, and each of you a baby, and you can be there for each other. What a wonderful blessing!

I think I'll be walking on air all day! THANK YOU!

Hugs,
Pat

C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S!!!

That was such a great post to read, Leah. I have been praying for you to be 'over the hump' of all the intense stress of indecision. I am so pleased that even with your very healthy assessment that the road ahead will be challenging at times you can describe that 1000 pound lifted. I can absolutely, completely understand what you're talking about and I am very thankful you are there.

My guess is the rest of your pregnancy is going to go much more smoothly from here on out.

That's great that there's a pregnancy center near you! I'm curious to see how it goes; if they are as awesome in Canada as they are in the US.

I hope you WILL keep posting; it's very fun to hear pregnancy updates. Do you think you'll want to find out the gender of your baby before he/she is born?

Sometimes if a woman can't decide between some names she's considering the moderator here, Shellie, will post a 'name poll' where we all get to vote on which one we like best. :)

One great tip someone gave me when I was first pregnant: There is a book called "What to Expect When You're Expecting" that is just perfect. It answers every conceivable question a pregnant woman could have throughout a pregnancy and gives month to month updates on where your baby is at, etc. It's a common book and can be found anywhere; I highly recommend it. They may even have a free copy at the Pregnancy Resource Center.

Make sure you've got a good prenatal vitamin (Prenatal Forte is an excellent one) and get as much sleep as you can stand!

Congrats again on not just the new life inside you but the way you have handled this unexpected turn. You can be sure there will be more in life! And you're in good company. I gave up a long time ago the delusion that I was somehow steering this ship, lol. But this is ok as God is 100% trustworthy.

With Much Rejoicing,

Heather
