The Miracle of Birth

For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb.
I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made.

Wonderful are your works; my soul knows it very well.
My frame was not hidden from you, when I was being made in secret,
intricately woven in the depths of the earth.

Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me, when as yet there was none of them.
Psalm 139:13-16

I'm 30 weeks now and getting more anxious that little one will come too early (especially since I've been having lots of brax-hicks contractions) This reminds me that the One who created the universe holds this precious life in His Hands too.

Funny things about weight gain

I find it so curious that at my Dr. appt at the end of April I found out that I had gained 7 POUNDS in 1 MONTH!

So I stopped eating ice cream every night :) and limited myself to just the week-ends. That was all I changed about my eating habits. 3 weeks later I got weighed again and only gained...1 pound in 3 weeks! How does that work??
