PREGNANT!
If there is anyone still out there…join me in the next chapter of our book.
Before I switch over, though…quick update! We conceived 100% naturally, and I am beyond blessed. It makes me weepy to think about all of this. Since the last time I wrote in this blog, I had given up hope. I was depressed, anxiety ridden, and needed to seek therapy. Since November 2009, I have been in the care of a psychiatrist and a counselor. I also managed to lose over fifty pounds, start my own beauty blog (BeautyGala.com) and start birth control at the advisement of my OB/GYN. I went on birth control pills for three months, and decided to stop them due to side-effects. My husband and I decided that we would start trying again since I was doing well emotionally, mentally, and physically. In June of 2010 (last month), I waited for my first natural period to start after birth control. Unbelievably, I started a natural period on June 13th, 2010.
You probably know the rest of the story by now…I waited for yet another natural period. Well, instead I got the most beautiful sight I will ever see in my entire life: two lines on a pregnancy test, and a digital “PREGNANT.” So, here we are, and here I start my journey into motherhood. Please pray that my baby bean sticks!
