My Decisions

I have had many people question me on announcing so early this pregnancy! I would like to address this and tell you our view point. Brad and I tried for months unsuccessfully! SO when it happened for us our joy came spilling out! we thought about waiting, we thought about keeping it our secret! We weighed the risks and the advantages to telling!

We waited almost a week after finding out to tell anyone but our closest friends(not even our mom's) I struggled so much!!! With my pregnancy with Caleb we found out at 4 weeks and 2 days told our mom's and a couple friends in the next couple days. We got married that Saturday and were so thrilled to be able to share that time and not have people looking down on us and then we announced it the following week( 6 weeks).

With my pregnancy with Kylee we did not find out until 11 weeks! She is my amazing miracle surprise baby! We told everyone thinking we were about 6 weeks along! Come to find out not so much!

With this pregnancy I am so honored and blessed that the Lord has chosen me as the vessell to give this baby an earthly body! So even if the Lord decides that this baby is to precious to come to earth! That this baby is too strong too powerful and too big a target for Satan and decides they need to go home! Iwill share my sorrow with you but also the Joy that my child was that amazing and That I will live with them again in the eternities!!

So maybe it is not the way you would do it but it is the way I do it! The Lord has blessed me with a miracle and I will share my JOY!!


on that noteI have my first Dr's visit scheduled for Feb 8th and will keep you all posted!

I seriously will never understand why people care about things like that. If I had the same experience, I'd be bursting at the seems with excitement! I did read some of those comments, and it's just annoying. I guess you just have to consider the source!

Anyway, congrats again!

I second what Ginny said. Why people make a big deal about it is beyond me! It's your pregnancy, and your decision to tell when you please :o)
