Yes, it's true...Baby Dreher is on the way!
We found out two days before Christmas and it was a huge surprise. After trying for almost two years, and being told our chances to get pregnant on our own were less than 10%, we were looking into adoption and/or saving for IVF. We thought this would never happen. Of course, we prayed constantly that God would bless us with a child of our own, promised he or she would be raised in the church. That is the truth, we are beyond excited about this blessing and have already announced it in our church. :)
I am almost 8 weeks pregnant, and we have seen the baby on an ultrasound. Due to some complications that have since gone away (yay!) we've actually seen it twice. A week ago Monday we saw the baby and heard the heartbeat. That was awesome! To go from thinking you might never have a child of your own to hearing it's heartbeat was indescribable.
I go for my first official prenatal appointment at the end of this month and at the last ultrasound my due date was calculated to be August 27, 2010.
We'll do our best to update this at least weekly, but if we fall behind, forgive us...life is already busier and I hear it gets worse! :)
