When God opened my womb...my testimony

Tweet

Hi all! I had been struggling with PCOS and getting pregnant seemed like an impossible dream. In the middle of 2008, I started feeling strange. I told my husband about it, but he replied that I always feel weird. We have tested for pregnancy so many times before based on my weird feelings and super delayed monthly period, but nothing happened. So we were sort of used to the disappointment already. So I brushed the symptoms off until one day I finally decided to take a pregnancy test because the weird symptoms continued. But before that, I told God, "Lord whatever happens, whatever the results, I will still praise You." Needless to say, the test came out positive. It was hard to believe at first (I know we have been waiting and waiting but it was quite difficult to accept the good news at first). When I sent a text message to my husband who was in a different c ity at that time, he too could not believe the good news. He told me to get second opinion—either a blood HCG test or an ultrasound. I opted for the latter. And indeed I am pregnant, just a wee bit early for ultrasound at 5 weeks because no fetal pole can yet be seen. But indeed something was developing inside of me and the doctor confirmed that a fetus is forming. We had to have a follow up ultrasound four weeks later just for confirmation. Nevertheless, there was unending praising not only from my husband and myself, but also our families and friends who had been praying for us. God is indeed mysterious, He has His ways. I came upon Psalm 113:9 and when I read it, I nodded vigorously in agreement because indeed it is God who settles the barren woman in her home and makes her a mom. I am pretty sure that this story has a purpose and my sharing this would bring hope to other women who have similar or even worse fertility problems. God is sovereign and the Creator of all. And nothing is impossible for Him—not even opening the womb of a barren woman. This is my story of having PCOS and having faith at the same time. And God opened my womb. I hope you are blessed. Take care all and God bless you! Happy mylotting! :D
