My week

So my week has been quite a rollercoaster ride. It has been a month and a half since my miscarriage and I still hadn't had a period, so out of curiousity, Tuesday I decided to take a pregnancy test. It was positive! I really couldn't believe it but was pretty excited. But after talking to my dr the next morning they were thinking that this wasn't a new pregnancy but that possibly I never actually miscarried and that I was still pregant! Then I didn't know what to think! Could it be that I have been pregnant for over a month and not know it? Crazy! I went in Thursday for an ultrasound to see what was going on. Unfortunately, there was no baby. Just a placenta. I guess I either miscarried the baby and not the rest or there is a possibility of a molar pregnancy which means I never was pregnant to begin with. Whatever the case they have to do a D&C surgery tomorrow morning. Needless to say it was pretty exhausting to go from excitement to confusion to disappointment to anxiety all in a few days. I would appreciate your prayers that everything goes well tomorrow and that it wasn't a molar pregnancy. If it was the dr. said they wouldn't want me to get pregnant for another year. That hit hard! But, I'm not going there yet.
I will just continue to trust the Lord that He knows what He is doing. He is a good God. He knows what is best and it is all in His plans to mold and shape me into being more like Him. I'm just trying to keep my focus there.

"In the morning, O LORD, you hear my voice; in the morning I lay my requests before you and wait in expectation." Psalm 5:3 We love you Erica and are praying for you! We will wait with you in expectation to see what God does and trust that He will guide the doctors tomorrow and give you strength and faith to walk this journey. Much love!
