Little Blessing
This is our little blessing to come. This is our story that lead us to this powerful obstacle journey.
We got pregnant with twin boys 2021 December, what a surprise and blessed we were. I was having trouble with the pregnancy and this was my first pregnancy but Doctors said that me and the boys will be okay at the end of the day. They were healthy and had no concerns. At 20 weeks I suddenly went into premature labor. With Doctors saying they don't understand why or how it has come to that. We lost our boys on 13 April 2022 due to premature labor, our first born was stillborn and second born was still alive but the doctors said it was still too early in the pregnancy to be able to save him. Our hearts were utterly shattered, it's a heartache that will never go away and we will always have the memory of holding them and at least being able to say goodbye. We blamed it on ourselves because of the Doctors that couldn't give a reason as to why I lost the boys so suddenly.
In the first week of October 2023 we were so happy to find out I'm pregnant again. At that time I was working constantly on my feet with hours of 14- 15 hours per shift, with that the Doctors said that for the safety of the baby I can't work those hours anymore due to them suspecting that I might have had a incompetent cervix with the previous pregnancy and might need to get a cervical stitch with this pregnancy. We were so scared with this pregnancy because of what happened with the boys. After I stopped working my husband became sole provider because I was unable to find a more suitable work and nobody wanted to hire me because of being pregnant. As you can imagine in this lifetime it's very hard to get by on one salary. At 16 weeks I was told I will have to urgently get a cervical stitch so a few days later I went in for the procedure. I am now 28 weeks and have great hope that we will get to meet our little girl. This will be our first child coming into the world, our little blessing.
This fundraiser's goal is to raise money for the birth of our little girl and necessary needs for her. The money needs to be raised before I reach 32 weeks, for us to be able to pay doctor and hospital fees for our little girl.
As first time parents, we will appreciate absolutely any donations towards welcoming our little blessing baby into the world.
