Pure Happiness

February 2010. It was a very happy day. The day my husband and I got married.
..I guess when couples get married, people around unintentionally puts a little pressure on them on whether they'll have babies or not.. So imagine the pressure on us when 2 years after being married, we are still not pregnant. To be frank, I also felt scared....because I also knew that I had a "problem" and unsure whether the meds I took would correct it... 'cause if not, that would mean infertility for me, no baby for us.
September of 2012. One day, while working at a local hospital, I started to feel uncomfortable in the abdominal area.. I felt sick. It continued that way so that the next day, I had to call in sick because I wasn't really feeling well. My husband suggested that I take a pregnancy test before I drink any meds, just to be sure that it was okay. As usual, I expected a "negative" result because I didn't want to get my hopes high and be disappointed once again.
The instructions on the kit said, add 3 drops of urine and so I did..1.. 2.. 3... Then I covered the results area with my thumb and closed my eyes. I felt nervous having to wait for a few minutes for the sample to settle in. I kept thinking--it will be just another negative result though deep inside me, I knew that I was really hoping for a positive one. "Lord, please be with me," I prayed. I took a deep breath. I just wanted to get this over with. So I peeked in the control line.. There was a red line, like it was supposed to. Then slowly, I removed my finger covering the Test Line... I gasped. There was a faint red line! Suddenly, I heard my heart pounding and my eyes started to swell. Before I knew it, I was crying and smiling at the same time. I was elated. Oh my goodness! They say there is no such thing as a "false positive" result...so I am pregnant! I stood up and got myself together. I took a deep breath and wiped my tears.
I rushed out of the bathroom to show the result to my husband. He was just as happy with the news!
But then again, before we shared the good news, we just wanted to make sure that that faint line was REALLY a positive result. I told him I could not wait any longer so my husband bought another kit right away. And there they were....two kits telling me I am pregnant.

On my 8th week of pregnancy, we had our confirmation...my ultrasound results revealed a live single fetus. And on my 26th, we had our 4d congenital anomaly scan. A healthy baby girl is on the way! I could not be happier. For almost 3 years, my husband and I were happy just having each other. But then when we knew we were finally pregnant, the pure genuine happiness we felt is beyond explainable.
May 2013. Our precious daughter, Sophia Alexa was born..Thank you Lord for our precious gift... She is perfect..To God be the glory!
