Has anyone just “known” they were pregnant...? Story included

Can I just tell you for a moment how amazing our Lord is?!?

I have always wanted to be a mother, I had a miscarriage four years ago, and since then it’s been like a crazy huge desire of mine. When I left my corporate job in August to work on my essential oil biz - I thought “Ok! This is it! We can finally get pregnant!”

Sadly, I realized how sick my husband had become and I didn’t even realize it. He was losing weight (and he was already slender!), no energy, hardly an appetite, losing muscle mass. It turned out his blood sugar was over 600 and his testosterone was incredibly low... I felt so angry at myself for not noticing and then again so sad because the possibility of kids was yet again tossed aside.

In October, we began focusing on his health and we’ve dropped his blood sugar down to 130-170’s naturally with diet alone. He still has no energy, so this last week, he started Testosterone cream.

Through this whole ordeal I’ve realized how much I put my dream of a family on a pedestal and really made it an idol above God. It’s been hard work taking down those idols but He has been so gracious with me and my heart. I feel like I am finally OK trusting in all His plans for our life - I am counting our blessings each day 💗

Saturday, I was listening to a podcast about “looking again” at your dreams, ya know the one that’s on the shelf, gathering dust....

Sunday, I was chatting with a lady at church about kids and she said I would make an amazing mother which warmed my heart! Then during the service, a friend let me hold her 2.5 month old because she said “I look liked I needed a baby” 😌

TMI alert-

Later on Sunday my husband I were intimate, which doesn’t happen hardly at all because of his energy and low T. He’s always proactive about pulling out way ahead of time but this time it was very unexpected and shocked us both....

Since Sunday, I’ve just feeling so peaceful and a little off feeling- constant motion in my stomach, middle of the back pain, mini waves of nausea, slightly dizzy; deep down, my body feels different, like I feel that life has started.

Anyone else just “known” right away after conception???
