I am 48 years old, I have no children and have experienced four miscarriages.
Just found out I am pregnant (naturally)!
Unfortunately, I thought I was beginning menopause, so I didn't even think my missed period could be due to pregnancy.
Worse, I went in for a long overdue mammogram last Monday.
Standing with my tender-feeling breast sandwiched in the machine, the tech asked the routine question: could you be pregnant?
So here I've been holiday drinking like a fish and just had a mammogram.
Except I AM PREGNANT! There is no containing the wonderment or joy!
I know I have a very long road to hoe, but I also have a deep sense this is out of my hands and I'm going to try really hard this time not to worry -- which really does accomplish NOTHING.
Thoughts from anyone on maintaining composure, or the whole testing thing?
-- Hannah's heart beat with a mother's love long before she was blessed with a child.
Through the years of waiting and longing, her gentle heart was nearly crushed under the weight of grief.
You can meet Hannah in the pages of 1 Samuel, chapters 1 and 2.
The Bible says she was barren, and we know she suffered heartache, anguish, and grief because of her empty arms. Perhaps you do too.
Hannah's Hope is for all who long for a child yet to be conceived, grieve for a baby too soon passed from the womb, or have lived through the no-mans-land of a failed adoption.
It is intended as a guide to assist you in making wise decisions as you struggle through your grief. And by the end of the journey, God may surprise you by the ways He uses to answer your heart's cry.
Compassionately written by a woman who knows well these painful struggles, Hannah's Hope will direct you to the Source of strength, whose name is the God of all comfort.
