I have never experienced a “Hell Week,” but I have been around enough high school football to know that the equivalent to that week for a high school boy HAPPENED to me this week as a mom/woman/wife/female.
I had a big, elaborate blog started, and then I stopped..Ctl-A, Delete. And, I’ve been too scared to blog, because I can’t fake feelings right now…it’s just to much work.
I am 90% sure I miscarried. I’ll find out for sure Monday.
Your questions now…
- Why did you not wait until Monday to post? Because I am going to see LOTS of people this weekend, and I hate watching the heartbreak on people’s face when I have to reply with, “Oh, Thank you, but I’m pretty sure I miscarried.” Re-hash.
- Are you ok? Sure. I mean, if not now, then I will be. It’s a natural part of life. Something was wrong and my body needed to fix it. I mean, come on… Nathan and I are fairly practiced at this…and they’re so gosh darn CUTE!
- Are you upset/mad? No. God has blessed me beyond my wildest DREAMS! I’m getting choked up just thinking about it!
- Will you try for more? Absa-freakin’-lutely! We have to give a fighting change for that token boy for Nathan. 🙂 Although, I’m SURE I only make girls. (Yes, I know Nathan decides that…but come on! All the Davises only have girls!)
I know many women who don’t talk about miscarriages and are scared to celebrate in fear of losing the baby. Sisters, do you know how many of us there are?!! I would never wish for any woman to fight these emotions alone! EVER. I need to celebrate with someone and morn with someone! I am also an external processor and I know others are very internal, HEAR ME WHEN I SAY that I don’t think the way women hold it in is wrong, but let’s lift each other up in the tragedies like these.
More fuel to the “Hell Week” fire:
- Nathan was sick for two days.
- Girls came home with a fever twice.
- Battery died in the car.
- The hard Dr. apt was Monday and I have to wait until this coming Monday for another sono.
- I had to do blood work and I HATE needles.
- Insane work week- I can’t really talk about this here, but it’s soooo…. um… insane.
- I felt like I couldn’t blog until I talked about this. And I couldn’t figure out how I was going to do that.
- My best friend is moving to Greece. {I’m going to miss you like CRAZY! But thank you, Lord, for technology & sending my friend to an AWESOME place for a DIVINE reason.}
OK! I am done with my PITY PARTY! I’m DONE! There is that slim [VERY slim] chance that all will be well, and Monday this little peanut has endured and I will see a flickering heartbeat and ball like a baby AGAIN with THANKSGIVING for the Lord’s crazy gifts. AND THEN have to blog again saying “I’m Wrong!” Oh, how I wish that would be the case…
But what I have clung to this week is this:
Happy weekend my sweet friends. I will keep you posted on final results soon.
Thank you to TONS of you who have been praying and checking in on me. I love the support that is lifting me up on weeks like this when I can’t stand on my own.
God is GOOD & It is Friday.
Thank you, JESUS!
