When it's meant to be !

Written on 17/09/2008 23:05:36 by

Hi everyone...i'm a big believer in fate and i just wanted to share this one with you all. I have 2 beautiful children from a previous relationship which didnt work out. So when i met hubby Paul I was over the moon to have finally found Love and happiness. During summer 2007 I became quite ill. I had not had periods for over 2 years and had just put it down to the stress of the breakdown of previous relationship. My hubby who was naturally worried about me persauded me to go to the Dr's which i did and she sent me for blood tests. The test results revealed that my hormone levels were stopping my periods and making me ill. The Dr even commented on the fact that i already had children and the possibility that i wouldnt be able to get pregnant again. She also wanted me to come off the pill to see if that would help matters..... Due to her suggestions my hubby and I discussed at length our feelings about having a child of our own. After much thought we decided that although it would be nice we already had our hands full and had plans to move and get married.
So that was it...our decision had been made and Paul saw our GP and asked for a vasectomy. we then had to wait a week or so for a refferal and During this week i must have cried every other day. I couldn't get my head round the thought of us never having a child yet also in the back of my mind was the fact that even if we did change our mind I may be unable to become pregnant anyway. We talked for hours that week but again decided against another child.
we were due to go to America for a 3 week holiday. A couple of days before we went Paul had his refferal. It was whilst we were on holiday so he had to contact the GP and made an appointment for when we got back.
We had a lovely holiday during which i felt all my worries disappeared and i came home feeling happy and contented. I was due to go and have some more tests in relation to my hormone problems and Paul had his vesectomy booked. It was the Sunday and my hubby's appointment was on the wed's. I was off that day and whilst he was at work i had decided to go food shopping. As i was walking up and down the isles i saw the pregnancy tests. I dont know why or what made me make the decision to get one but something in my head had told me to do a test. Through fear of seeming mad and the fact that there was no way in the world i could be pregnant I decided not to take it home but instead i would do the test in the supermarket toilets. I went into the cubical and I did the test placing it beside me and not paying any attention to it what so ever. In fact i felt stupid at the thought that i'd even done it and put it down to a mad moment ! As i left the cubical i turned to dispose of the test before i left for home and...YOU GUESSED IT...it was Positive. I don't know how I drove home that day because every emotion was running through my head and although paul and I are rock solid because we had chose not to go down that route i was scared as to how he would react.
I got home and just by the look on my face he said "is something wrong" I told him the news and he was stunned. we sat down to talk about everything and It took us all of about an hour to get over the shock but once it had sunk in we were delighted. This baby was against all odds and on the 11th may 2008 i gave birth to a beautiful baby girl who is just perfect !!!! So it just goes to show....when it's meant to be !
