November 6, 2001, I took a home pregnancy test and it showed that I was
pregnant. My husband and I was so happy we were going to have another
child. It would also give Rachel a little playmate. Her big sister is fifteen now
and spoiling her. She is like a little mother to her. The boys are also helpful with
Rachel, especially when I am busy around the house.
She is helping them all become good and responsible people !
My children's ages are now 15, 13, 11, 9 , and 1.
December 6, 2001, sadly I began to miscarriage my baby. I was around
6-7 weeks and I miscarried at home. I knew what to expect due to
having one in 1987 , after our first child.
When I had my first miscarriage , the doctor had to help remove my unborn baby for me.
But this time I was able to miscarry at home.
On January 10, 2003, I took a home pregnancy test and it was positive!
Oh ' Lord Be with me and my baby. I have been feeling sick especially
at night.
May 20, 2003 , we found out that we are having a boy !
We already have his name picked out "Isaac !"
He is about to enter into a beautiful , noisy , caring,
and loving family ! He will be such a happy baby !
September 15 , is my due date and I haven't had any contractions
yet.
September 23 , 2003, My husband and I went to my doctor's
appointment. I took my bags with me in case he sends me
to the hospital. Well we are on our way to the hospital !
We will be having our little one soon !
Well , it wasn't so soon and my baby was posterior . The
doctor had to turn him first before I could push him out !
I was so thankful I didn't have to have another cesarean.
On September 24, 2003 , Isaac was born at 8:00 a.m.
He was 7 pounds and twelve ounces and twenty -one inches
long. He is so beautiful !
I was thirty-six when we had Rachel and thirty-nine when
Isaac was born.
After having the tubal reversal , we knew we wanted us to have
two more children. I am now fifty-seven with eight grandchildren
and my husband is sixty. Rachel is in college to become
an art teacher and Isaac is a senior. Amongst our children
Rachel is the only dark-haired child and Isaac is the only
brown eyed child. Our family has been very blessed and
our journey continues .
Thank you for listening to my story,
