I went into the emergency room on Friday for extreme stomach pain. They did an ultrasound and I saw my baby for the first time and heard its heartbeat; it was the most amazing thing I’ve ever experienced.
They said it’s perfectly healthy but I need to see an OB soon, so I finally told my mom. She was sad at first and almost hit my boyfriend who was there with me but overall, she is very supportive. My stepdad is too! But he hates being called grandpa 😛 As for my dad and his wife, they don’t know and honestly, I don’t care if they know. I have rights to keep it from them and they didn’t even care I was in the emergency room. All they said was feel better. So for Christmas, I’ll just make them a card with the ultrasound on it and say TA DA! Merry Christmas… That’s mean, I dunno… But other than my dad, my life is pretty much amazing right now. My mom keeps saying that this baby is divine and the baby will live divinely with no shame put on it. I think my mom is more excited.
But anyways, peace and love from the both of us 😉
Hi, I’m trying to get pregnant.
I had a stabbing pain in my lower left side just below my hip. Is this ovulation? ( Dec 9) I’ve been having mild cramps on my left side and my abdomen on Dec 13,14,15. Could this be Implantation? I had 2 kids and I never had these signs before. Could I be pregnant? My last period was on Nov 25. Can you help?
Thanks so much.
Once upon a time there lived a man who really believed in God. And one day, there was a flood in his city.
So when the water was gushing down, he got down on his knees and prayed to God. Please, God, save me. Suddenly, his neighbor runs into his house and cries. There’s a spare seat in our car. Do you want to escape with us?
No, says the man, God will save me.
The water kept on gushing, and he had to get onto his roof to escape the water. Still, he prayed. Please God, save me. Suddenly, a boat came past, and one of the people in the boat shouted. There’s a spare place in our boat, come escape with us!
No, said the man, God will save me.
The water gushed even more, and soon, the man was just holding onto the last bit of his roof that’s wasn’t underwater. Still, he prayed to God. Please God, save me.
A big log floated past him, but the man pushed it aside, and said, God will save me.
And he drowned.
When he got to heaven, he asked God, Was I not good and obedient to you in my life? Why didn’t you save me?
And God said, So what do you think your neighbors, the boat, and the log all were?
So let us drink to that, so that we do not ignore and let pass by the wonderful chances that God gives us!
Hi! Well, I just found this site and thought it was amazing, to find so many girls with similar life struggles.
It’s nice to chat with someone that can relate to you and know how you fee. I’m not very good at writing so I hope I can express myself in the right words
As you probably gathered from my other (slightly poetic and aloof) blog entry: my cousin aborted the baby. She has said (or so I heard) that it was her decision so what can I say really? I tried. At least it’s not for the sake of some loser idiot boy (at least I hope), but I can’t pretend I’m not disappointed in her. Not that she needs to know that but still…what’s done is done and cannot be reversed. The baby is gone and her problems are ‘solved’. Bah.
On to my life… Me and my fiancé have decided that it’s better for my mental health that we take a break from all the hoping, wishing, praying, and begging for a baby. We still really want to have a baby, but we both realized that it was making me miserable and everything was getting really stressed. It’s funny because the day I decided to mentally and emotionally step back from the intensity of it all, I realised how much my future husband wants this. It’s not that I’ve changed my mind at all. It’s just that with all that’s gone on over the past few months, our life and relationship has been really stressful and draining. We haven’t just had fun and enjoyed each other for so long and I want that back PROPERLY…to just be US without the stress and strain. I love him so much. I can’t wait to have our baby and we haven’t returned to using contraceptives but have really and consciously said to ourselves and each other that God will decide, what will be will be and when it happens we will deal with it then. Plus my body is only just beginning to come back to normality after being on the Pill (well apparently it takes about 5-8 months) so in actual fact, that may not be the case quite yet and that is something I have to accept and allow nature to work on.
But we aren’t going to get stressed about getting pregnant now (Now! NOW!!) but instead take time to love, cherish, enjoy and appreciate each other and get our life straight. God will bless us soon but it’s up to him to decided HOW SOON…
And I say to all the girls out there who are down, depressed, feeling defeated and inadequate or sad because they haven’t conceived yet…Don’t let it take over your life… Love your boyfriend/fiancé/husband right, enjoy him, and don’t miss out on him because you’ve spent so much time aching for a baby that it’s the only thing you think about (believe me, I can relate!) because you have been blessed with someone that loves you and you can never get the time you chose to be sad about not being pregnant instead of just loving your man back…
Good luck, love, and best wishes to everyone (I’m not leaving Stand-up Girl-just wanted to end my blog with luv for everyone!)

PS. I’m here if anyone wants to talk or needs advice or whatever! 🙂
If you look at it in terms of living through it, in terms of living through it on the edge and under pressure, 9 months is a very long time… Just when I thought one of my nearest and dearest had made the conscious decision to be a fantastic Stand-up girl and be the angel of choice of life for the tiny person growing inside of her, she falls, and puts an end to the madness that could well maybe have turned her life into something so beautiful.
I am sad to say that she chose to abort her baby…not as sad as I was before and not as sad as I thought I would be, but sad all the same. It really angers me to think that so many girls have been given the blessing that many crave for only to just throw it away due to perceived bad timing. It’s like spitting in the face of GOD…
They cry and wail, complain ‘why me’ and say ‘but I’m not ready’ or ‘my life will be ruined’ when it is only through their own irresponsibility that brought them thus far. It is of the highest mordacity to then turn around and sacrifice the life of the child God has blessed you with for sake of convenience or ideals. How can you see how much your baby has grown, its little fingers and toes, how your life may be , how your baby may look like , hear it’s heart beat and still say yes to ending it’s life before it has even tasted air? I must ask whether the tiny pounding your mother once heard when she saw you for the first time on that black and white screen has grown to stop and become absent… Did you feel your heartbeat when they tore your baby from inside you?… No?
It is true absence of heart and courage…And I say no more…
