Six days ago we saw our baby for the first time! Six days ago we also found out that there was some sort of growth or tumor inside me. Six days ago my heart leapt and then moments later dropped out the bottom of my feet. I didn't know what to feel...but I did know what I needed to do. I needed to pray and lift the burden of the unknown up to the Lord. I called my Mom, my sister B, and some friends that I knew would begin praying me thru this. And they did, and you did too. 6 days later I am still filled with a sense of calm and peace. I am not filled with panic or doubt or fear. I am able to laugh and talk to this growing 11 week old baby inside me and I am able to eat healthy knowing I am giving the right nutrition to our child. It's your prayers that are at work. I know that alone I would not be this calm in the face of some of the questions that K and I have. We have since found out that the growth is a "large exophytic fibroid" that is about 2.5" x 3.5" x 3.0" at the top left of my uterus. Hopefully we can just watch it and be aware of it throughout pregnancy and it will not interfere. We have an appointment with a specialist in a week to have some of these questions answered. And I am so blessed too by the way this specialist was brought to us. Our midwife recommeded him and praised his work and ethics and diligence. Then I was talking to my chiropractor about the fibroid and she recommended that I see the VERY SAME DOCTOR! These are two women who I trust with my body and they were both telling me to go to the same specialist. It really was a God moment for me. I felt even more calm and actually happiness that we are in the right place and that He is still in control and taking care of us. Truly your prayers are at work here in our lives. I cannot thank you enough! God bless you all!
