Tugging on my heart strings

Tuesday, Birthmom was asked to come in for another sonogram because the doctor wanted a second look at baby's heart. Emmalyn was positioned in a way that wouldn't allow the doctor to see what he needed to see. Doctor couldn't tell us everything was alright, and he sent us to a specialist in Springfield for a 4D sonogram to better see baby's heart. So, for two days, I panicked even though everyone else said baby would be fine.

My worry went through all the stages. Anger, disbelief, bargaining, and finally acceptance. Whatever the doctor’s appointment and sonogram revealed, I was ready to accept and do everything I needed to do to ensure my daughter arrived safely in this world and came home with us.

Thankfully, all was well, and our baby is healthy and strong!

Not only did we get this amazing news, but we also got to see our gorgeous daughter's face. She even smiled for us!

I love this little girl so much already…she has become the core of my existence, the light in my life, and the dream I have always wished to come true. I cannot wait for her to arrive, so I can spend the rest of my life giving back to her all the wonderful joy she has already given me.
