Depression and Counseling???
(My private journals from my 1st pregnancy.)
This week was New Years and I felt a little better this week, but still have some depression so I really need to talk to someone. Maybe I need a counselor. My sister gave me her mother-in-laws number. She’s a Christian counselor so I’ll give her a call this week. I know it not good to ignore depression. I hope she can give me some words of wisdom. It’s weird how my hormones can make me feel so bad when this is supposed to be such a beautiful time in my life.
Lord, please help me to be happy this week and give my baby joy beyond measure. Amen.

I Saw My Baby For the First Time!!!
(My private journals from my 1st pregnancy.)
This week we had our first pre-natal visit and our first ultra sound. Seeing my little one on the screen was so amazing! Dan was there too, of course, and he got really excited. This little person that is growing inside of me, my baby, wow… and I can already make out certain body parts. Truly amazing!! And to hear his/her little heart beat is unreal. What a blessing from God!
And I’m finally getting my energy back a little this week. But I still can’t believe how tired I am! Every night since I found out I’m pregnant, I’ve been praying for my baby. I get email updates on what is developing that week and I pray for that body part; like the eyes or hands etc…
This week I prayed for my baby's brain development.
Lord, I pray that my baby will develop a healthy, intelligent brain. And because your Word says, "ask largely that you might receive largely," I also ask that you will bless my baby with an excellent memory. Lord, help me teach my baby to memorize Scriptures, and help my baby to memorize them easily and quickly. Amen.
I just can’t wait to meet him or her!

Depression During Pregnancy
(I’m continuing to share my private journals from my 1st pregnancy.)
Well that was not my best Christmas. I was soooooo depressed. What’s wrong with me? I cried almost the whole time and Dan’s mom and sister thought I was nuts! Well, I was. Normally I’m a happy go lucky person, but not this time. I felt bad but I think I ruined their Christmas too. I hope I get over this depression soon. It must be the hormones but I really hate that I’m feeling so down gaining weight so quickly. (Somebody commented on it which made me feel even worse!)
I need to keep telling myself that it’s for the baby and just keep praying. I know that deep down I need to gain a good amount of weight but we all struggle with something and mine is weight.
Lord, please help me not to feel this way, I want to be happy about my pregnancy. I know this is a blessing from you and I will lean on you. Amen.

Thank You to All Who Prayed for My Husband
I just wanted to say thank you to everyone who prayed and sent well wishes for my husband when he fell off the roof a few weeks back. It was a very scary time for us and Thank God, he is now ok.
We spent many days in and out of the hospital and he did have to have surgery, but he gets his cast off of his arm tomorrow! He is so excited. Thank you. And we did get to go and see my mom and had a nice vacation!
Blessings,
Jennifer
