Baby on the way!


We found out a little over a year ago that I had a condition called PCOS which caused me to have cysts on my ovaries and prevented me from getting pregnant because my bodies hormones were not working properly. We were both heartbroken, but Aaron constantly reminded me that God was in control and that he had a perfect plan. After many doctor's visits and no positive results, I had given up. In january I began noticing some changes in my body and wondered if I could possibly be pregnant. I took an at home test and unlike all of the ones before, this one was POSITIVE! I was still unsure, so I took 3 more tests and all showed the same wonderful results. I went to the doctor a few days later and the blood test confirmed that I indeed had a tiny miracle growing inside of me! Aaron and I were so grateful for this wonderful blessing and excited to start this amazing journey as parents. I have had no complications so far and all of the doctor's appointments have gone well. At about 8 weeks I started having major morning sickness, but it's worth it if it means that I have a healthy baby! We have had 2 ultrasounds so far and it was breathtaking seeing the baby and hearing its tiny heartbeat. I am a little over 15 weeks along and our baby is due on September 15!
