A New Chapter Begins..Pregnancy (Discovery Stage)

So the marriage and honey-moon stage have been more fruitful this year.. God has given us a baby! :)

It is funny how everything started.. 


We got married in 2009 and I told myself that I still don't want a baby. Why? Because I am not yet physically, mentally, and emotionally ready. I still can't see myself giving birth, feeding a baby.. and all that same stuff. I still want to be somebody.. someone successful in the corporate ladder. And thank God, He made me one. I still want more time with my husband.. And I feel so blessed that He gave me the best quality time ever. 


Hubby was already getting impatient as I kept on pushing back the date we initially planned. It started on 2010, pushed back to 2011, then 2012.. When I finally said YES, OK.. LET'S HAVE A BABY.. That was November 2012. He downloaded all the apps related to "best dates" "best food" all these similar stuffs, so as he can get me pregnant. But I got so stressed out and told him that the countdown and the schedule he makes were driving me mad and I can't even enjoy the intimate moment with him as his "OC-DC" is really killing me. I told him to trust in the Lord 100% because He alone knows the perfect timing for everything. I advised him to simply pray and lift up all our worries and cares to Him and He'll give us rest. True enough, he made every minute I have with my husband so memorable and enjoyable. We don't feel pressured anymore whenever everyone is popping out babies. We don't feel stressed anymore everytime "monthly period" starts. The best quality time we've ever had was when we lifted up everything to the Lord- His timing, His provision, His wisdom, and His direction.
