He is getting strong

This Ultrasound was taken at 20 wks. I' am now 29 wks and can feel him move regularly. I'm getting more and more anxious as the days go by for our little guy to arrive. We are so blessed to have been given a second chance on having a child. I have gestational diabetes now, but am working very hard to keep my sugar levels under control. He seems to be more active when my sugar levels are in check. Every time I feel him move I feel so relieved that I know he is alright. My last doctors appointment went well his heart rate was a little above 140 bpm, The doctor said that was a great heart rate. Everything is progressing normally. Even though our finances are a little tight right now and we have to be very careful with what we spend we kind of look at eachother and think to ourselves "what more could we ask for." I'm getting closer and closer to my due date, and I will have to admit im a little nervous being a first time mom, but I really believe that together Adam and I can make it through anything, and our little guy is going to be very loved! We have good family, and good friends and together anything is possible, God gave us a second chance at having a family because believe it or not "Miracles really do happen!"

Our changing life

Adam and I met one summer out of coincidence really. I was one of his customers and began coming in more regularly to see him. We really hit it off from the beginning, first becoming very good friends to developing a everlasting relationship. He became not only the love of my life but my best friend as well. The further we got into our relationship we noticed how much we had in common, from childhood till now. This made it easier for us to relate and to talk freely to each other about past life experiences. We share many of the same interests, fears, and wants in life. Its really amazing to be this close to someone. We have been together for almost two years now, and despite the fact we have had our ups and downs, and even broken up in the past we always find ourselves back together again. Lately our finances have been kind of hectic, I haven't worked for about six months now, so he is pulling all of the weight there. Its tough but we manage, and we make the most of what we have. We have crossed many milestones being together. We didn't think we would ever be able to have children because I have a health condition called Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS). One out of ten woman are born with it. The health condition causes cysts on your ovaries, as well as weight gain, insulin resistance, infertility, and can even effect your hormonal balance by releasing small amounts of testosterone into your blood steam caused by the cysts bursting. The doctor finally got my PCOS under control and decreased the amount of cysts greatly. Its took a long time to get back on track though, but now being back on track I feel much better and healthier at that. We became pregnant for the first time Last August sadly the pregnancy ended in miscarriage, which was very hard to cope with because i thought wow Im actually pregnant and then i just wasn't pregnant anymore. I was scared that I would never again become pregnant after that, and im proud to say We are expecting our first child and the pregnancy is going great! I only have a couple months to go and then he will be here!!! Its an amazing feeling to have a second chance at being a mom, especially when I didn't think I could become pregnant to begin with.
