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, my delivery wasn't as fast as I wished,
due to the fact 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,
