Maybe this will help some of you ladies trust in God’s timing 💜
My husband and I are extremely blessed to have 2 boys already. Ages 6 and 5. We thought we were done until last year, when we decided to try one more time for a girl. :) we would’ve been happy with another boy, but we thought why not! Let’s just try.
It didn’t take us long to get pregnant with the boys, so I started getting concerned after about 6 months of negative tests.. I didn’t really understand why it was taking so long this time. Was it because I’m a little older (not old, just older! I’m 25 now) or maybe because of my weight gain from the depo shot?
But I trusted God. I KNEW I was going to get my baby girl. It was just so hard trying to be patient. After a year of trying, I gave up. And said if God wants me to have another baby, he’ll make it happen.
That month I got my positive. (TMI. But we were only intimate 3 times that month) so it was truly his timing. What I DIDNT know, was that he would also bless us with a move to a different city for a better job, to a bigger and much better house. And now we are MORE than prepared for baby GIRL due next month! We have a beautiful nursery! Something I wouldn’t have had if we stayed where we were and I got pregnant earlier.
God waited until AFTER one massive unexpected life hurdle we had to get through last year, to put us in a bigger and better position to have a baby!
Looking back, I remember the pain I felt month after month, and sitting here today, almost 34 weeks pregnant, I could not be more thankful for his timing. I am so glad he waited, and gave us this baby at exactly the time we needed. And we didn’t even know it!
I’m not saying it’s like this for everyone. I’m just saying maybe there’s a reason for everything. Maybe things happen exactly when they’re supposed to. 💜 I hope that maybe this will help someone out there find peace, even if just for a moment.
