So the extreme nausea/vomiting I have had this pregnancy has made me completely dependent on God. There is only so much Zofran, Phenergan, Nexium, and Tums can do! At 8 weeks into my pregnancy I was desperately praying and felt God lay on my heart that I would be healed at 12 weeks. So of course I wake up the morning I turn 12 weeks and am very disappointed to find that I am more nauseated than ever. The days of the week went by and the nausea and vomiting got worse....I was so incredibly discouraged. I would be lying if I said I wasn't angry at God. But he then laid on my heart Isaiah 55:8-11 which basically says that God's thoughts and ways are not like ours, they are much higher. So I resolved to the fact that God was going to heal me in His way, not at the stroke of midnight like I expected. I will admit, though, I was still skeptical and kept telling myself maybe I just imagined God speaking to me because I wanted healing so bad. Well sure enough, I woke up June 24 (the last day of week 12) with NO nausea!!! And I have felt great since...all glory to God!
This picture shows my pump, bag of Zofran the port that goes into my leg and the trusty fanny pack I got to carry it all in! I had to alternate port sites on my leg every 24 hours. I am so excited to be weaning off this thing! Two months of poking my leg got old!
