The past two years have been one heck of a roller coaster. I had to start over after 18 years, made the move from Tennessee to Michigan. Was homeless for awhile, however, it took me 7 months, to completely replace everything my daughter and I lost from me walking away from my marriage. It wasn’t easy, I begged God every night to show me where I went wrong, why my marriage failed. It took a long time for me to actually understand my marriage didn’t end because of me and I couldn’t have did anything different.
It took me almost two years of leaving my husband to actually get into another relationship. I drowned myself in work, 68 hours a week, I did 130 days before I even took a day off. At that time I needed a vacation I requested 10 days off and my daughter, my boyfriend and I took a trip to Texas to visit his family.
We came back and we moved from our townhouse into a cheaper place, so that I could actually take a day off work and not stress about my townhouse rent payment! On our way back from Texas Covid hit and everything started shutting down.
10 days before I turned 41 I found out I am pregnant!
How the hell did that happen! I stopped taking birth control pills in 2006, I tried several over the counter pills to help me conceive and it never happened. I gave up hope, I knew I would never have another child by birth again. Little did I know God had something else in store for me. On June 11th, 2020 I took a pregnancy test, I was three months late, but I always had irregular cycles. BAM pregnant. My first reaction OMFG no way, I took another bam pregnant, then another, then another, all came back we were having a baby.
I called the local OB made an appointment, went in talked to the nurse, my new ob knew I was still not believing it so she took me over to the ultrasound room and I got to see my baby for the first time! Mind you my daughter is 18, so this is yet again all knew to me.
I went down for my blood testing, checked I wanted to know the sex of the baby and a few weeks later we found out we are having a BABY BOY! OMG WE ARE HAVING A BABY BOY!!!
I am still in disbelief it’s so hard to believe after all these years, I finally got pregnant again. I am 16 weeks as of tomorrow and looks like we are having a Christmas baby. He truly is my miracle baby and baby daddy, big sister and I are so overjoyed.
How old were you when you had your last baby?
