When God seems to be saying it should be small...

My husband & I want a large family. We just had our 1st son, Isaiah on June 20! 
He is such a blessing! I really hope that God allows us to have a large family. I agree with ChristianMama84 - We will adopt if for some reason we cannot get pregnant again. We are going to start trying again when Isaiah is 6 months old.
I had the BEST pregnancy! When I first got pregnant, I was so worried about everything. My mom couldn't carry my brother or I full term. I was born 9 weeks early, & my brother was 6 weeks early - so I was paranoid about that. Once I finally gave all of that anxiety to God & just let Him do what He wanted with me, I REALLY enjoyed my pregnancy! I went to 38 weeks & had to be induced because of pregnancy induced hypertension.
I'm very blessed though too with my midwife. She is a dear friend of mine. I wish everyone could experience to have a good friend deliver their child. Having her deliver Isaiah was so much more intimate & personal than if I had a doctor delivery him. (Unless of course you're friends with your dr. )
All I can say is ~ when we put our trust in the Lord, He always comes thru...maybe not in the way we want or expect, but always in a blessing that glorifies Himself.
In bitterness of soul Hannah wept much and prayed to the Lord. And she made a vow, saying, "O Lord Almighty, if you will only look upon your servant's misery and remember me, and not forget your servant but give her a son, then I will give him to the Lord for all the days of his life, and no razor will ever be used on his head."
1 Samuel 1:10-11
So in the course of time Hannah conceived and gave birth to a son. She named him Samuel, saying, "Because I asked the Lord for him."
1 Samuel 1:20
One of my favorite stories! I love Hannah's dedication of her son Samuel to the Lord. God is faithful! He cares about what we desire!
