The Beginning Of My New Life

For the majority of my life, I had been shy, even though it didn’t seem like it most of the time, I was scared to death when I met new people. I know that it sounds extremely trivial, but I feel that when you first meet someone, you’re ultimately giving them their first impression of yourself and that is a lot of pressure. It seemed almost certain that I would lead a life of being a social wallflower until March 2017, more specifically, March 28th, 2017. This day was and still is important to me because I learned how to be confident, and through my experience, it taught me something that I will hold onto forever. Prior to this day, I was an extremely introverted person and rarely went out of my way to make friends. As a volunteer at day

This pregnancy began with many nausea and sadness. I went to my doctor every month for my routine check ups. When I had four moths pregnant the doctor sent me to do a sonogram and that day the doctor informed that my baby was a girl I could not believe it. That day I was the happiest mother in the word I because I was waiting for that little girl since my first pregnancy. I thought I would never be able to have a girls because in my family were more boys than girls. For me I felt that I was dreaming, so I did not tell my husband any thing about the baby’s gender. My husband was helping me with my other two children helped in the housework, gave me massages, and he spoiled me with special meals.

I was sitting in the back of the taxi in Ukraine. The car moved and I began to see the one I love fade into the gray night fog. I will never forget the feeling I had during that moment. Like something was being ripped from my heart - a moment of great despair as I leave both my family and my country.

When I arrived to the emergency room, the doctors started doing some test on me where they found me very skinny and that´s why I had to be intubated. It was really a long day not knowing what was wrong with me. After a while a doctor came back with the test results and found out the real reason of my sickness. The blood that I saw on the floor of my bathroom was a small vaginal tear for carrying something heavy during those days and the virus that I had was not the flu but I was expecting my first child. The surprise was even bigger when I went for my first visit to the gynecologist, where I don´t only found out that I was expecting a beautiful princess, but she was on her sixth month. Everything related to my baby was just fine, but due to the vaginal tear I had to stay in bed for the next 3 months, to avoid any complications. The big day arrived on December 29, 2007, where my Princess Gabriella was born and it was the most unforgettable moment in my life. At it was the most beautiful virus in the universe but that was not all; 11 months later Samuel my second son was born and yes and it was another virus’s disease discovered at 5

It was late February in 1998 when I found out I was expecting another child. I was 16 years old. It should have been a happy day it was my daughter’s 1st birthday party and everyone was there. The house was full of family and friends and smelled of chill and cake. Please don’t get me wrong, it was a happy day for the most part until I found out I was pregnant. Scared and not knowing what to do, I kept this what most would call exciting news to myself. You see I was dating a man and he was not a very nice person he was mentally and physically abusive to me most of our relationship and he was the soon to be father. A month or so went by after I told him and we were both somewhat excited him more than I. I was more scared then anything. He managed to get himself into some legal trouble and was sent away for a long time. Where did that leave me? I was scared to death

I had never been in an airplane before and flying half way around the world was a little scary, but God was by our side on every flight and he was with us when we went through customs in Kazakhstan and did not have to pay “extra” (We had been warned that many times the men who worked in customs took money from Americans.) He was with us when we held Briana for the first time, it was love at first sight for all three of us. We were saddened to find that because our daughter has cerebral palsy she had been left in a crib and was very stiff and did not speak. We began to work with her that very first day. For the first two weeks we were allowed to see Briana for two hours a day. It was on August 2nd that we were given the honor of becoming Briana’s parents. After court we went back to the baby house where the woman in charge stripped Briana naked and handed her to us. I will never forget that shocked look on Briana’s face when I put a new pink dress on

January 31, 2015, is a date I will never forget, that day my angel was born. Her name is Patrice Penelope Harris, I was so happy I couldn’t hold my tears back. When I first found out I was pregnant I wasn’t the happiest girl in the world, my daughter’s dad (Will) and I were not getting along for nothing in the world. We found out June 8th, I told him that I had been feeling sick for about 2 weeks and that we should take a test together. Well, of course, he had his reservations about being the dad because we weren’t together at the time but I assured him that he was indeed the father. So after going to the pharmacy, we bought a test and went back to his place.

God helped me battle the raod to depression and I didn’t even have to travel on it. I looked for the blessing in diguse, that I wouldn’t have been able to give a child a perfect life that he or she would deserve. Tht eime wasn’t right. I look forward to the day the time is right and I’ll look back on this and remember what I was able to overcome through the power of the Lord. nyone yet because our families live in Gerogia and Flordia. I was glad we waited to announce it because it could have been even harder. Even though I didn’t want to I called my mom. I called her in tears. By that time I knoew I was going to have to have surgery to have my mom was the only other person besides my boyfriend’s dad that knew. John was supportive through the whole thing. Anything I needed her would do or get for me. He had to leave for hcokey the day ager my surgery Though he treid to stay home I didn’t want him to miss a tournament his first year as UA’s headcoach. When he left I was home along for four days until my mom came to be with me. I only took four days off of work because I love my job and hate missing work for anything. My workers are amazing. UDuring thouse four days alone I had a really hard time. I was alone, I was upset, and I was hurting mentally , and physically. I didn’t know what to do. I started opening my bible. I looked ip bible verses for child loss or things similar. I vsmr sacross a verse ahbout how God has a plan for you and how

On 10 October 2006 on a military base in California I had the most unexpected surprise of my life. That day I was told by my doctor that I was pregnant. This was a complete shock to me since I was on birth control. My career in the Army was on the rise and baby was not something I had even wanted yet. I had only been married for one year and we wanted to wait since we had so many plans. That day my life had been the start of the beginning.

At the age of 22, I found out that I had cervical tumors. My mother had asked the doctor if there was anyways I could ever have a baby, in the future. His answer, very unlikely. A week later, I went to the doctor’s office to get blood work and to get ready for my surgery. I was getting the tumors removed. Two days later, I was told I could not get the procedure done. I was pregnant. Very excited and shocked, hung up the phone and drove to my boyfriend at the times house to tell him the news. After four months of excitement. He told me he was getting to attach to the baby and left us both. About two months later, I meet a guy. He was nice, funny and was willing to take on the responsibly of being a father. We got married a few months later.

In the early morning of January 5th 2016, I awoke to my wife of six months, Scarlett, complaining of abdominal pain. I thought it was more pregnancy pains that she had experienced for the previous five months. Then, she told me that she believed they 89were contractions and she had been timing their intervals and we needed to get to the hospital. My initial thoughts were frantic; cs it's much too soon, it's two months early. After my initial worries were addressed in my mind, I began to run the logistics of getting to the hospital. We were in Straelen, a small village in northwest Germany with no reliable transportation, and Scarlett certaintly could not make the bike ride to the next town with a hospital. I went outside and began asking strangers to take me and my wife over to Geldern. No one would oblige my

It was August 13th, 2011, when my daughter Katelynn was born; 1 lb 13 oz. A premature baby, which doctors didn't give me much hope that she would make it. I remember the agony I was feeling, knowing that the most precious and most awaited gift was slipping away. My Heart was breaking apart into millions of piece with nothing for me to do but wait. On the outside, I tried to show a positive attitude, believing that the God all mighty could give me the victory; a miracle. Despite my hurt, I gave thanks to the Lord with all my heart for the blessing He had given me, to be a

To the nurse that said “Congratulations” I think about about you a lot. The story of my daughter doesn't start out like a lot of pregnancy stories. It wasn't one of those sweet times in a couples lives where they decided to have children and within a couple of month they we're pregnant. However, I didn't give up, I didn't lose faith and then without any symptoms I had a weird inkling to take a pregnancy test. After five long years of trying, our world suddenly and wonderfully changed. Our precious Aurora Rose existed , five years of wondering and waiting we had our baby. But I never got that excited feeling. While I was filled with love for my child, I always felt uneasy in my soul. I tried to ignore it, and start doing all the things you

Of course I had a check up on my cervix but it became my first time of being put on birth control. My cervix still was opened and highly painful to deal with. I finally stopped bleeding the day before after taking the pills that help my uterus shed, but only for two hours. Since May I’ve been bleeding for months. It’s not only annoying but gross. I couldn’t always trust myself to wear certain clothes. Just after september, my period is normal as it’s ever going to be. I forgot how to deal with raging emotions. Often I’m a sensitive asshole. Weeks after I saw babies and pregnant women everywhere. It made it hard to move on when it was constantly shoved in my face. Seven months after I can handle what happened and Jacob handles it better than me. I’m just not ready for November 16th, It was my due

I had one of the best experience in my life being a mom welcoming new life in this world. I admit in the beginning I was only nineteen years old I had no job, no mature level, no clue how to raise a baby. In the beginning I was bit paralyzed with fear, but as months starting coming and going I became very sad to having excitement. I had create a living being that seems like a dream, but it was real person inside my body. I had no idea what the journey was going be like at all, I was not sure if he or she was going cherish and believable bond that would last whatsoever. The three stages I experience when having a baby in my stomach was during my pregancy , birth of my baby and even today.
