Praise God for his miraculous healing!

Well I have good news to report from my Dr appt Thursday. As always my Dr was very nice and very encouraging. I have never been as thankful to change Dr's as I am with this change. :-)

God has answered our prayers and is healing my womb and growing the baby nicely. Hubby and I got to see him on ultrasound again yesterday and he is more beautiful than ever! We also got to see where the placenta is located now. And praise God, it has moved AND re-attached itself! If that isn't the best news you have heard all day then, well it should be. :-) There are still a couple of questionable area's that still need to heal, but these things don't happen overnight, I guess, so I am patiently waiting for the Lord to bring this child to full development. The other thing that the Dr told us yesterday is that I will be able to go full term with this baby and there should be no reason that I cannot have him normally as well. Unless of course things happen towards the end that require a cea-section. We will just trust that the Lord is taking care of that too, and whatever happens when this baby is born is totally fine with me, as long as he is fully developed and healthy. We have now been given that re-assurance, and I could not be happier.

I have also been given a reprieve on my bedrest. Many of you know that I have already been up and starting to do some cooking around the house and been getting out to stores just this last weekend a little bit. Well the Dr beleives that it is ok to keep going with that routine, as long as I take it slowly. One step at a time. I don't want to go out and run around the block or something like that, but I have been given a bit more freedom. Just yesterday morning I walked the kids to the park that is 3 blocks away, but per dr's orders we took it very slow and I did great. It was nice to be outside with the kids. :-) So I shall take baby steps and hopefully get to a more active routine soon, probably just in time for the baby to come. :-) So it looks like we may have this baby around February 28th after all.
Take care and blessings to all.

Oh Jennifer, PRAISE THE LORD! His loving kindness is so rich and real. How miraculous to have what was a scary situation turn into something that righted itself. This baby boy is a fighter and God sees fit to bring him into this world with a bang!!! What a dynamo kid! Thank you Jesus, for healing my friend, and protecting her baby and mostly for giving the family joy and hope. God is so good.
Do you ever wonder what it is we do to even deserve it? He loves us so much.
I am so happy for you and your family right now! I wish I could celebrate the good news with you face to face, but I am thankful on this end. I am so proud of you for knowing your limits and sticking to them. You are a smart, wise woman who loves life. The walks, cooking will do wonders for your self esteem. Keep up the good work! I love you!
