The Sweetest Sound

We went to the doctor today and was able to hear the heartbeat! My doctor only does ultrsound on the 20th week and right before birth, so we had a sonogram instead. Not as much fun, and it was hard to find the little guy. After a couple minutes and quite a serious prayer, we finally heard the beats. I could have listened to that forever!

I made an appt. to meet with the specialist for the cerclage consultation. It will be the Monday before Thanksgiving at 8 in the morning. They will do an ultrasound (yea!) and I can bring a tape to record it. I am sure it will cost extra, but I am going to try. Maybe I could find a way to get it on the blog for everyone. I also set an appt. for the actual cerclage. Apparently that happens at around 14-15 weeks. I am trying to be positive and believe that it will work but my nerves are recalling past memories and it is hard to overcome.

Patrick has been meeting daily with a friend as accountability partners. They read and study the Word, and then pray. It is making a wonderful change in our lives. I have also noticed more of a calling from God to me. He is asking for me to seek Him more often and read His Word. That is something I have not done in quite a long time. My emotions have been a bit raw with the anxiety of he pregnancy and just hormones in general. That is making it very hard to come to God. Please pray for me that I get the umph to obey Him.
