All is Well

We went to the doctor over the week and found that all is well. There is no more blood, but they still recommended that I take it easy.

Thank you all for your prayers! It´s just a little scarey being a first time mother in a foriegn country.

Thanks!!

The Man I Married

So this is a little entry to brag on my husband...

So I have been having cravings!! Most of them falling under the American category. Last night I was feeling like throwing up, but so hungry, I wanted to eat something. The only thing I felt hungry for though was Pizza Hut bread sticks, like I'm going to find those out here!!

My sweet husband got home from the gym and asked me what I wanted him to cook for dinner. I said, "you could never do it, so nevermind. It's just, I want food from my country!"

He lovingly replied, "Well, tell me what it is, I'm sure I can cook it, I'll find a way." Well, ok. Breadsticks. Pizza Hut breadsticks. Or pizza, thick pizza that has substance."

He asked if I could wait until tomorrow and I was like, "yeah, ok."

The next morning, he calls a friend to have him send me pizza from LIMA with another friend he knew was coming back to Iquitos by plane. Then around noon, he went and waited at the airport for an hour and picked up a personal sized ham PAPA JOHN'S PIZZA, complete with GARLIC SAUCE!!!!!!!

They only ordered small because they didn't know if they would be able to get it through security.

HOWEVER, his friend knew of another lady who will be coming in on Friday, so they are going to have a large sent my way!!

WHAT!?!?! Do I even deserve this man? I learned one thing, never tell Nelton he can't do something.

what little there is to know

The only new information is that I tested negative for a urinary infection and that I am on bedrest (hence the reason I have not been to the internet) until Friday when I will have another ultrasound and check up.

A little update

We went in to meet with the OB doctor today and with everything I understood, we basically found out that it could be a urinary infection. Tomorrow first thing in the morning I will be going in to test for that. If that's all it is it sounds hopeful and relatively easy to solve.
However, if it's not, it could be something far more dangerous with the risk of a miscarriage.
Right now I'm basically on bed rest. Have to rest all the time, no exercise, and what not. Nelton sees to that beyond well. He makes all my meals, does all the dishes, and keeps the room nice and clean. He's amazing! I could not ask for a better husband! Anyway, more news to come tomorrow.
I'm at peace, God gave me Psalm 27:14 "Wait on the Lord. Be strong and take heart and wait on the Lord."

Blood in the Womb

Nelton and I went in for our first ultrasound today and they found that there is some blood in the womb. The doctor´s first question was if we had tried aborting the baby. NO!

I´m not really sure what this means as my Spanish doesn´t grasp all the medical terms yet, but we are going to have it checked out tomorrow.
The good news is that the doctor said the baby is fine, the bad news is the blood is there. I am NOT a fan of the Peruvian hospitals (I could go into detail, but I won´t) and the thought that I even have to go check it out is not a comforting one.

So please keep this in prayer.

Updates to come.
