They wanted me to deliver the fetus naturally and sent me home. 3 weeks later nothing had happened so they induced labor. It was a devastating time in my life.<BR/><BR/>Seven months later I suffered a tubal pregnancy that required surgery and left me with only one functional tube.<BR/><BR/>Nearly a year later I became pregnant with my oldest son. I was a nervous wreck the whole nine months! But he was born full term, healthy and beautiful! We named him Nathaniel (Gift of God) David (beloved) because he was....both.<BR/><BR/>Two years later his brother was born, but not without complications. I was home for the first six weeks attached to an IV pole! Adam Daniel was born as his brother; full term, healthy and beautiful!<BR/><BR/>6 weeks to the day of his birth I was back in an operating room getting my remaining tube tied. I was just sure if I got pregnant again it would be the death of both of us. I have never regretted my decision.<BR/><BR/>Today my boys are 21 and 19, big stapping young men! <BR/><BR/>I wish the same for you, that you enjoy both of your children and never regret what might have been.<BR/><BR/>I love keeping up with you and am so glad you offered the link from your 3fatchicks journal to this blog.1of3Wisheshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07313754829308802528noreply@blogger.com
