Have Hope! I doubt people will read but its worth it.
I always has cysts as a teenager and young adult. They would rupture and end me up in the hospital many times. Due to which I was told it would be very hard to get pregnant. Sadly it also lead me to a life of drug use. Yes I got addicted to drugs and was on them for many years. Finally started to get clean. Met an amazing man who was doing the same (normally not a good idea when getting sober) but we clicked and we couldn't stay away from each other. We just fell in love. We both knew we wanted kids and knowing my issues we never really uses protection and also wasn't fully trying. After 2 1/2 years of sobriety and love we needed some changes. Work was stressful for us both. We went on vacation to Arizona (where im from), when we came back he put in his notice. The 2 days prior to him quitting his job i had been getting infections (from cuts and things) my hips were hurting too. I was 8 days late but everytime I tested in the past I started the next day which was a let down. I figured I needed to go to the doctor for infections and I should try to know what to tell them. I finally got my pink lines.. my whole world changed that amazing day. I had some pretty bad kidney problems from being pregnant and was in the hospital twice before we delivered. I had some blood pressure issues for awhile. When I hit 37 weeks + 3 my doctor sent me to the hospital for testing. Come to find out my fluid was very low so they induced me immediately. She said he was coming anyway that week i had been at 2cn for a few weeks. Qt the hospital i stayed qt 2cm until they broke my water 12 hours after induction start. After that my son was delivered in that one hour. Everything went smooth besides that. Delivery was amazing and fun. It was the most amazing experience of my life and we were laughing between pushes. Everything was perfect. I welcomed my amazing son Liam Henry to the world on January 15th at Noon weighing 6lbs 9 oz and 17 inches long. He came home at 6lbs. Perfectly healthy no NICU. He is my evrrything. Welcome to the world my baby I never thought I would be lucky enough to have. I can't wait to welcome 3 more one day. Keep faith and hope mamas it can happen when you least expect it. He is now 7 months old and watching him grow and become an amazing person has been the best thing I've ever been giving the opportunity to watch and help grow.
