My husband Juriz and I have been trying and praying for a child since 2012, 2 years after we got married. The plan to have a baby didn't come easy as we have expected. Although the tests done to us came out normal and our doctors made sure we are capable of having kids still we had a hard time conceiving.
I still remember the piece of advice my OB Dr. Lilia Lizano gave me she said to stop using the ovulation kit because it tends to stress both me and my husband. She said the best way is to just enjoy the moment.
My period was supposed to be on the 29th of September, my mom's 10th death anniversary, but I missed it. Missing a period was a common thing to me in fact there were times that I'll be delayed for a week and yet it will be a negative result. I was so nervous to take the pregnancy test because what if I'm just keeping my hopes high and then it will just crumble into pieces when it turns out nothing but Juriz insisted.
The following day I still didn't take the test maybe I was a little hesitant to face the truth and possible disappointment. To cover my unwillingness to know it I asked Juriz if we could watch a movie, I love watching action movies and so we picked Equalizer. It was a movie with lots of gunfire and it was rumbling inside the theatre. To my surprise my tummy was twitching all the time.

First day of October around 6 am, I got my pregnancy kit and with all braveness mixed with nervousness I finally took the test. The 3 minutes waiting time felt like eternity and then 2 bold lines appeared and in a few seconds I forgot what it means! POSITIVE!!! I wanted to scream on top of my lungs but I kept silent I wanted to keep it a secret for now. All I did was to thank God for a wonderful blessing.

To make sure that I wasn't dreaming at when I did the first test I did it again but this time with a digital one.

I always asked Mother Mary to help me convince her son to let me have one of His angels to be my child. I also asked my mom to pray for me since she was there in heaven her prayers will be closer to God. My husband and I kept our faith in Him that in His own time our prayers will be answered. We surredered our plans to God and let Him plan for us.
Matthew 7:7
"Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you."
