The best surprise

We’re expecting our fourth baby❤️. I found out a few weeks ago and thought this little neglected blog would be a great place to document it. We’re in Hawaii with our Guest Equity team, it’s a great place to praise Jesus for this miracle. It’s been wonderful. So far I’ve just had a little morning sickness, soreness, headaches, and bloating, but nothing that’s really holding me back. I knew God had another baby for me. I’m so excited and so so blessed. I’ve been thinking about my past pregnancies, cravings, and symptoms. With Ava, I didn’t have many, or any, early symptoms. I craved chili dogs and frito boats and hot dogs of any kind, and it was gross because I didn’t even like hot dogs. With Jack I had some morning sickness, but my first clue was a really bad headache and when I came home from work I fell asleep on the couch- very unusual for me. I drank chocolate milk every night and ate way too many Oreos. With Pete I knew I was pregnant because I was walking through target and I just got super light headed and a little nauseous. A feeling that I don’t usually get. I ate a lot of sweet potatoes with Pete but I don’t remember many cravings. With this baby- its been way different. It started with soreness all across my chest- I thought it was from working out. Then a lump in my breast which brought me to my Gynecologist, but turns out it could be a swollen milk duct. Who knew? She wanted me to wait until after my cycle to see if it was still there, but my cycle never came. I was truly shocked about this baby, because for the past 5 years after we had Pete, we were low key trying for one more. When it hadn’t happened late last year, I told Adrian we have to stop, it’s too much for my heart, and I’m happy and so blessed with the babies I have. This must really be God’s perfect timing. I haven’t seen a doctor yet, but I think my due date will be late September.
