Empty sac to a miracle baby

I just wanted to share about God and His mercy and grace in our lives

Me and my wife are married for over 2 years now and from day one we have been praying for a Child.
God gave us the blessing last March when He blessed my wives womb. But we had a miscarriage two months after in May and we lost our Baby. It was a very stressful and depressing time for both of us. But by God's grace and with the help of friends we came back to our normal selves.We were trying to have a child ever since but it did not happen.

But in January , God blessed us and my wife was pregnant again. We both were very happy and thankful to God. We believed that God will definitely not take this child away from us. My wife also had all the good symptoms and we took extra care and caution that a miscarriage should not repeat.
We had our first apptmt with the doctor to check the heart beat ( at the end of trimester ) on Wednesday this week ( Feb 24 ). We were excited going into the room anticipating to hear the heart beat of the child for the first time.

After asking the routine questions , she used a hand held instrument to check for the heart beat . She tried for some time , but couldn't hear any heart beat at all. She mentioned that it is sometimes difficult to hear the heart beat through that machine and wanted to do an ultrasound and check .

We went to the ultrasound room and she used the device on top of the belly and tried to get a heart beat. But again , we could hear nothing. She then did a vaginal ultrasound and said this on seeing something on the monitor " I have bad news for you". She explained that the sack is empty and there is no growth in the uterus. We were completely shocked and in tears. We just could not understand what was going on. She went on to say there might have been a 'missed miscarriage' and the baby did not form at all in the uterus. We both were completely in shock , they further mentioned that they will be setting up an apptm with an Ob Gyn on Friday , so that we can take the next step of cleaning the uterus through D&C
We came home devastated but prayed and thanked God and Praised Him for allowing this in our lives. But we both were depressed. Two of our friends who live here, we call them "akka" that is for big sister in our native language came to visit us and encourage us yesterday and we prayed again and committed the future in God's hand. We were basically resigned to the fact that we have lost the child and God intended it

We went to the Ob Gyn today afternoon to consult with the Gynec and to schedule the D&C. But the doctor wanted to do an ultrasound just to be sure before we proceeded.

When the technician did the vaginal ultrasound and switched on the monitor , MIRACLE of MIRACLES , we could see the Child there . She started showing us all the features of the child and said the child is perfectly normal . We both couldn't believe our eyes and we started shouting . The technician herself was dumb founded on how the doctor could have missed this. She switched on the speakers and we could hear the fast paced rhythm of the child's heartbeat . It was such a music to our ears.No words can really describe the excitement and joy we had at that moment. We started thanking God ..We then met with the Gynec and she also mentioned that the baby is perfect for the 11-12 week period and we dont have to worry. In a matter of 15 min all our sorrows turned to joy and we were just bubbling with energy.

When we look back and think on humane terms we could always blame the doctor for messing up the ultrasound and giving us a wrong picture on Wednesday. But think about this . She is a very reputed and experienced doctor. She tried to find the baby with three different methods. In spite of that she was not able to.
In the words of the Technician who did the ultrasound today "Even a novice with three months of practice should have found the baby".
But , we both strongly believe that God was just gracious and His mercy just enveloped my wife and He put the child in her womb today. We will be ever thankful to Him. The joy in us was just too much to contain within , so thought of sharing this with our friends.

Our God is an awesome God , a God of impossibilities and a God of miracle and we as a family now are a living example of that.

Marriage testimony

Submitting to His will and let him take over our life and His will is perfect in His time

When I was in my final year of my pg my family started to keenly search for a life partner for me. I was very playful didn't give full attention to it. I came across two proposals in August 2012 but my mom kept telling to move with the other one which we didn't even think of. I told my mom to put a pause to the search and let me complete my studies but my mother didn't. She kept doing it without my knowledge.  Once she called and told in December 2012 to send biodata to a particular ID. I said no. My friend insisted me to obey my mom. I did without an interest. Before typing I prayed God give me the wisdom to type so that the one whom you have kept for me be touched by my biodata. I sent my biodata.  And my mom kept telling the proposal likes your biodata and I kept postponing.

During my Christmas vacation my sister was advising me to get married soon and I scolded her pointing to her age when she got married. She told parents have become old now not like her days. And I received another proposal and I rejected it along with my dad citing reasons he was working in abroad. My sister yelled at me I told see dad doesn't like she told you are selfish to fulfill your dreams. I didn't bother. The abroad proposal got fixed for my cousin and my mom and sister asked how are you going to attend her wedding. I said I don't care. And after her wedding my entire family shouted at me and I came back home from native and fasted and prayed for a week. I finally prayed Lord if your will is in the list of the qualifications which I said I don't want, I accept. Not my will let yours be done.

N the same proposal of August 2012 I got married. I prayed to God I Atleast should be  engaged or my wedding be fixed at the time of my convocation and exactly on the day of my convocation when I stepped in I got the confirmation call. My mom just asked if it's God's will what you would do and it was His will.

Only God knows what's perfect for us.we ourselves don't know what is best for us. I learnt this.  The point is we never had video call nor did we meet each other before fixing , we just had a talk over the phone in a call and prayed and we got the confirmation verses and accepted. Everyone in my family and even friends where shocked that it was me who accepted without even seeing the proposal directly.

Even today it's like a dream. I know God provided me with a best friend and a companion all through my life. All Glory to God. He is mindful of us.

Second child

I'm married for five years. I had my severe ups and downs in marriage. Everyone think that I got married and had a baby immediately but there were two months between my wedding and the time I conceived. I faced enormous comments those two months when I get my periods from my sister in law. I once got on my knees fasted and prayed to God and told I know you haven't created me barren place a boy baby in my womb because my husband was desperately telling the first he wanted a boy. And the same month I was conceived and I knew it was a boy.

I went through a stressful pregnancy because of my in laws. Everyone told the child will change your husband's attitude.My sister in law told onto my husband's face you won't have a boy. And my baby boy was born through normal delivery. And the Marital problems increased all the more. We  crossed the rough path until we completed 3 years of married life.

A lots of pain where a many a times I wanted to give up,  many a times I prayed to God to take my life and I can't tolerate more. But God never went deaf to my cry. He opened my husband's eyes and finally the struggle came to an end. I was longing for the next baby and had to go through a miscarriage before for unknown reasons and heard negative comments here and there it's difficult to conceive after a miscarriage but I prayed God when you gave me the first child you can bless me with the second if it's your will that I have only one let it be but never will I step anywhere for treatment because you are the One who created me and you are the only one who can bless us with another.

And by God's grace I was pregnant with no medical intervention immediately three months after my miscarriage .The doctor told we cannot confirm until 13 weeks because of immediate pregnancy after miscarriage. My morning sickness was terrible but still God led us. And on the 13th week scan everything was normal and she said hereafter no problem. My husband that was the first time he openly confessed to me God has decided to give us a baby no matter what and surely the baby is purely God's gift. By God's grace I delivered a baby girl normally despite of Chord being around the neck. From when the baby completed one month myself and my husband are taking care of her alone. We don't have any help. I mean cooking by myself and taking care of the baby. Many waited to see how we do it and mock at us thinking we can't . He who gave children will also provide us the wisdom to take care of them.

We prayed to God and God strengthened us to take care of her. By God's pure grace she has completed 6 months. 5 months totally under our care. There were many times that I fell sick and once myself and my husband both of us were sick but still He provided us the strength to take care of both the children with no one's help. Tears roll down my eyes when we look back to see how He has carried us so faithfully. If it was not for God these miracle wouldn't have happened in our life. We fully held on to God and He blessed us in His own time. All praise and glory to God alone.

Unexplained infertility to natural conception

I would like to share my testimony of our miracle baby to encourage others who are waiting for their miracle. We are blessed with a baby after 4 years of marriage.

We started our life together happily with God being with us and guiding us in everything. One year passed by and slowly everyone started asking why I was not able to conceive and if there is any problem. Till then, the thought of not having a baby didn't bother us. So we consulted a good doctor and took all the basic tests. Everything was just normal. For 6 months, the doctor tried to find out the issue. She couldn't find any. I was asked to take multiple scans every month, along with tablets and hormonal injections. No positive result.

I then knew for sure, the doctor couldn't do anything and it is God who can and will bless us in the right time and stopped taking medications. I prayed, *Lord, it was you who created me in my mother's womb, and only you can create a life inside me as well*. And God promised many times that he will bless us.

Still, the next 2+ years was not easy. Had to endure so much of disappointments, frustrations, stress, especially the pain caused by people's unwanted comments.

Many of my friends said that I was wasting time and asked me to take siddha medicines atleast. I decided in Jan 2017, one more year I will wait and we were sure that God will bless us before the end of the year believing God's promises. 11 months passed by.. No positive results.

By December, I had prepared by mind that I should be going for treatment from Jan 2018. But then I was constantly reminded of this verse, *God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?*

Yes he did fulfill his promise when we lost all our hope and was about to give up. To our surprise, got a positive pregnancy result just 2 days before the year ended.. Praise God for answering our prayers and fulfilling his promises in our lives.

Even the doctor was so amazed about this natural conception, without any medicines even. The entire pregnancy was very smooth by God's grace, and delivered a baby boy in August 2018. Praise be to God.

When we look back, we really thank God for those period of waiting, for it has brought us much closer to Him. Nowadays I sincerely pray for people who wait on the Lord for their miracle. Please be encouraged that God will surely bless you in the right time.
*Waiting is just God preparing you for the very best!*
*Waiting is a blessing!!*

Down syndrome vanished

Hi friends .. this is my first testimony in this group .. Praise God for all the great things he has and is doing in my life . during my pregnancy from the third month the doctors were telling there might be a problem with my kid and we have to do a lot of tests to confirm that .. so when nearing 6 months they told there are chances for down syndrome and after hearing this my husband decided we can go for abortion even though he felt bad about it .so my parents suggested a doctor and then we decided even if she confirms the same we can do it .

she told us that all the other factors are fine and there is almost no possibility that it cannot be that way .. but he was not accepting that so she said only if u take a particular test i can decide otherwise i wont be able to anything. usually the doctor who takes the test will come only after two days of booking an appointment . but even without an appointment he just came for a visit that day and the test was taken (2 years before this same date that test was taken ) .. we were told that results would come only after a weeks time and i stayed back in native. and the result was the baby is good and there s no possibility that it might be a down syndrome baby .. after 9 months just a day before the expected delivery date he was born a normal and healthy baby with perfect weigth . even though my bp was shooting up and they gave me a lot of tablets and injections during delivery to bring down my bp , nothing worked but he was born safe and sound that too within 3 hours after my water broke in normal delivery .

I praise God for each and every time he comforted me during all my scans and all my family problems. Thank you all for your prayers during my time of trouble.
