    My story is very different, so forgive me if it offends anyone, but I personally, had my son at 18 years old, and around 11 years later, I had two abortions, it is easy for people to judge and assume what they want, but I was incredibly grieved when I made those decisions, I was not walking with the Lord at the time and I was also practicing New Age, Witchcraft and very demonized and lost. In that brokenness God found me and drew me to Him. I slowly but surely began purging and grieving my old life, my traumas and childhood abuse and more.. but it was God's forgiveness, love and mercy that got me through that very difficult healing process. I didn't even know what "being a Christian" fully entailed but I knew that after I had encountered Jesus I no longer wanted to continue living the way I had been or remain in the same situations I'd been in. At the time, I didn't think God could ever forgive me and I had a revelation of sin, I repented for ever thinking I could play the role of God and murdering my two precious babies.
    I named both of my children that I had aborted, I think about them everyday, but God has assured me that they are in Heaven with Him. I'm comforted by that fact. Many women are shamed, and hated for aborting their children, and because of that shame they are afraid to speak about it, they are afraid that God will hate them and the judgement that comes from that. But God takes our pain, our trials and transforms them into something so beautiful, He redeems and uses our testimonies for the greater good, always. Well, the reason I added that backstory, is because a few months ago, my husband and I found out that we are expecting a baby, I'm currently pregnant, We have a surprise baby on the way and it is truly a blessing from God. It has been the most difficult journey of my life. And filled with so many trials, health issues and a lot of sorrow. I think to myself at times, why did this baby get the chance to live longer and not my other children? why couldn't I have found God sooner? but it is also a part of my testimony. It is so strange feeling your baby kick and often thinking about how your other babies are and what they look like and what theyre doing.. but I am so thankful to have Jesus walking with me. My pregnancy is high risk, I had thyroid cancer 3 years ago, surgery and am on synthetic thyroid medication for life. I have also had a sub chorionic hematoma at 6weeks and almost lost my baby. I remember going to the E.R and feeling overwhelmed and a sense of dread, I had been bleeding so heavily. I asked my husband "Why would God allow me to be pregnant only to take my baby away?" and "my husband responded with, I dont know." and it dawned on me, that I had felt just a droplet of the sorrow that God had felt when I had made the decision to terminate both of my pregnancies. Even that revelation was overwhelming...Anyway, I had a lot of intercessional prayer and I thought I had lost my baby, but I am currently seeing a high risk doctor for my pregnancy and in the 2nd trimester (Glory be to God). I do not know if this baby will be delivered to term, or if I will only have a few months with her, given so many health issues, but I trust God. And currently, They are doing tons of genetic testing and checking to see if anything is wrong with the baby, given how difficult this pregnancy has been. One can assume that God is punishing me for allowing such things to happen after such tragedies, but God is merciful and He doesn't think like we do. He mourns with us.
    I have read through so many forums of moms that had babies in the womb, that had genetic defects, down syndrome or other health issues and disabilities and many times, they are advised by medical doctors to terminate their pregnancies. I was taken aback, as I had no words, I don't think like I used to. I have decided that if there is something genetically wrong with my baby, I will still keep her and do my best to honor God. This baby will be a testimony for Him and for His glory.
    I am so thankful for testimonies of mom's like Lindsey who have pushed through all adversity and had their babies experience genetic abnormalities and still have used their story to comfort others and glorify God. Now that I am pregnant, I can feel my baby move and I am so thankful for those precious moments and know that even that, is a gift. My heart breaks hearing that Lindsey carried her babies, gave birth and had the beautiful the blessing to rejoice in her little one, but the time was shortened. When you carry your baby, there is something so beautiful that happens, it's truly a gift from God. Hearing her story is inspiring, beautiful, and I hope she can continue to touch other mothers and families. Every baby is a blessing. And I think about how beautiful it is, that her love for her babies transcends this Earthly world, a mother can love her children so much so, that even eternity cannot separate that love and bond.

    God bless this couple. They chose life over destroying and causing pain to two innocent precious babies. I too would want to hold them and love them as much as possible.

    I believe one of the biggest lies of satan is that we can’t start families in our 30’s and 40’s and even 50’s for some. Why would the God of life restrict the age of conception to our teens and twenties when we are least developed in maturity for being a wife and mother? He is not bound by time. Pray over your womb and children and keep believing that no time is too late if the Creator of Life gave you the power to bear children-He’ll give the power to enjoy them! Ecclesiastes 6:1-3! We have to know the power of the Almighty and how to stand against the enemy‼️

    Some ladies have made the observation that when they conceive when on family planning medication, they have children with major birth defects or complications.
    They recommend abstaining from relations and stopping family planning medication for at least three months before conceiving.
