HOW THANKFUL I AM...

I WAS 16 WHEN I STARTED BIRTH CONTROL, (DEPO SHOTS) TO BE EXACT.I DIDN'T WANT TO TAKE THE PILLS CAUSE I KNEW I WOULD FORGET. SO I DECIDED TO GO WITH THE DEPO SHOTS. NOT KNOWING HOW MUCH IT WOULD REFLECT ON ME. I WAS ON IT FOR 4YRS, ONCE I GOT MARRIED I FINALLY GOT OFF IT. A YEAR INTO OUR MARRIAGE WE   WANTED TO TRY FOR A BABY AND NOTHING. WE KEPT TRYING, THEN 2YRS CAME AROUND AND STILL NOTHING. SEE I BELIEVED IN THE MAN ABOVE SO I DIDN'T GIVE UP HOPE. BUT THEN I STARTED GOING TO DOC VISITS TRINNA SEE WHATS WRONG, MY MP WAS IRREGULAR, I GAINED WEIGHT, FELT DEPRESSED, AND LOST HOPE..BY MY 3YR I GAVE UP TRYING, AND JUST FOCUSED ON US AND OUR MARRIAGE. EVERYONE ASKING WHEN WE WOULD HAVE A BABY AND IT GOT VERY FRUSTRATING FOR ME BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW. I FELT LESS OF A WOMAN BECAUSE OUT OF ALL THINGS MY HUSBAND WANTED HE WANTED HIS FIRST CHILD AND I COULDN'T GIVE IT TO HIM. I JUST KEPT PRAYING AND ASKING THE MAN ABOVE TO HELP US, HELP US TO CONCEIVE. BY THE 4YR NOTHING STILL HAVEN'T HAPPENED SO I KEPT PRAYING..BY MY 5YR IN MARCH, MY HUSBAND COUSIN WROTE TO ME..SHE SAID SHE HAD A DREAM THAT THE MAN ABOVE CAME AND SPOKE TO HER. SHE SAID HE WOULD BLESS YOU WITH A CHILD FOR ALL THE YEARS YOU HAVE BEEN TRYING TO CONCEIVE. I LAUGHED BECAUSE I DIDN'T BELIEVE IT..ALL THOSE NIGHTS I WAS ASKING AND ASKING, FEELING DEPRESSED, FEELING AS THOUGH I COULD NEVER CONCEIVE. BUT THE LORD PROVED ME WRONG. BY JULY 2014 I FOUND OUT I WAS 3MON PREGNANT. I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT. I DROPPED TO THE FLOOR IN TEARS THANKING HIM. I HAD LONG YRS WAITING FOR THIS MOMENT. NOW IM 8MON PREGNANT AND ALMOST READY TO POP..SO BASICALLY MY STORY IS ABOUT NOT GIVING UP AND THANKING HIM FOR ALL HE'S DONE FOR US. NEVER GIVE UP!!!! HAVE ANY OF U WENT THROUGH SO MUCH TO GET WHERE YOU @ TODAY GETTING PREGNANT?

My husband and I have been together since age 14, now 28 finally having our first baby. I am 29 wks 5 days with a baby girl. I have not taken birth control since age 22 doctor said I would have to see a fertility specialist but prescribed me prenatal vitamins in hopes it would help. After 6 months taking them my dr gave me a referral for specialist and then on june 29th I found out that I was pregnant.  The greatest miracle Of all. Never give up hope.
