Hi ladies- I'm about 6 weeks late on this........but I had my sweet little angel on June 24. It was the most awesome birth ever! Pain free, and I am not kidding about that!
I am REALLY enjoying him. It was a rough 3-4 weeks in the beginning, as I had to fight through some breastfeeding problems that I have never experienced before. Honestly, it did take a little longer to bond with him because of all the stress........but I kept myself in prayer.
Regarding GD.......I've been thinking a lot about what I want to share with you..... I'd be lying if I said I have'nt had any GD since my sweet son's birth.......but it's mostly gone now. I see all of this as a spiritual issue, quite frankly......My children are such gifts, and life is so fragile.....There's no way I could have created any of these 4 unique and wonderful boys all on my own. They are God's creations.....and well, quite frankly, this life is not about me. It's about God and who he needs to fufill his purposes for this time in history......... I am very very blessed, and that is the way I feel most of the time........When GD starts to creep up, I pray through it. Sometimes it takes awhile to pass, but overall I feel very thankful for my 4 blessings. I've been thinking some about having another baby in the future, and I honestly don't think it's just about having a girl. I think I have a hard time calling it quits, LOL! So I'm praying about what the future holds because I know that my Dh will be scared to death if I decide I want another baby, and he just may say NO. God will lead us in our decisions...............
God bless you all, and thanks for letting me share.
