Okay friends, I am past my due date and I bawled my eyes out for a good 20 minutes yesterday. I feel so emotional and on the verge of crying at any moment. I assumed that my second would come early especially with how active I have been, but I am utterly and completely wrong. This has been really hard for me and God is teaching me patience like no other. Proverbs 3:5-6 says "Trust in the Lord with all your heart; do not depend on your own understanding. Seek his will in all you do, and he will show you which path to take". I have definitely found myself praying and seeking the Lord more in this season of waiting.
I think the hardest part for me has been the transition of moving and getting established at our new duty station. With all that has been going on, I kind of marked the coming of our son as a fresh start to a new chapter in our lives. I don't know exactly what it is that God wants me to see, but I am starting to keep my eyes open so I can gain new understanding and wisdom from this experience.
These will be the last pictures I take with my baby bump. I am scheduled to be induced this week and will keep you all posted with pictures as soon as our little baby boy makes his appearance in this world as a disciple for the Lord.
Keep your spirits up, he is just happy to be with his mommy for a bit more. Plus this means he will have strong lungs and be healthy for you. You can do it momma, I went four days past last time and prepared for the same with this one. Good luck and have a safe and blessed delivery!! We are sending prayers your way!!
ReplyDeleteThank you! It was so hard waiting and I love having him here now!
DeleteThey are never a hundred percent right when it comes to your due date which is so hard on Mommy's because it due date is like a finish line. God is just making your little boy as strong as he possibly can be really scary outside world! Soon he will be here in your arms. Find something to keep you busy and that you love to do and focus on that and time will go by and until your little boy is in your arms! My thoughts and prayers are with you, Ben and Reilly!
ReplyDeleteHe came at the perfect time. I feel so blessed to be his mommy and am so glad he is finally here! God is so good.
