Feeling very blessed :)

I feel very blessed these days, perhaps more than usual. As many of you know I am currently pregnant with baby #5, I know we are a bit crazy, but it works for us. Anyways, we found out very very early because of a very thorough doctor that I had a very large hematoma. So for weeks I was going in weekly and having tons of blood work done. Ive had 4 ultrasounds, and lots of worried faces. I was on a semi-minimized bed rest. I couldn't do alot of things (I did do some though :0) like vacuum, carry Eben on occasion...oops. Every week we would go in to see if there was any changes in my situation..nothing. It was a large hematoma, the week before last when we went in the doctors concern was all over his face, he told me all the do's and dont's...again to make sure I completely understood, which I did, then this past Thursday we went back in and amazingly enough the hematoma was GONE. We don't know how this happened or when, but the ultrasound tech was shocked as well, she just kept looking and there was nothing there except a very healthy looking baby with a great heart beat and growing right on schedule. The tech said that someone must be watching over us. I guess that is very true, we completely feel blessed. We know that with all of the prayers on our behalf and behalf of this baby it is gone. So for now...we are out of the woods. I still need to be careful and not over do it, but as for weekly appointments, no need, I am a boring ole' patient every 4 weeks right now. :)
