BV COLUNM - HOPE : CONCEIVING BY FAITH (MY STORY)



Hi Aunty lay after reading about twins last week I decided to share my
story. Dear BVs its a long one but I hope you will enjoy reading it as i
enjoyed reliving it.
I got married to this great guy and I wanted kids immediately but that
didn't happen and I got UTI instead. 

The lab guy said it was common with newly weds. It wasn't properly treated and after a few weeks I had another infection. I thought I was pregnant because the infection had all the symptoms of pregnancy,then I was addicted to googling
pregnancy symptoms. I went to a lab for a test and I had so much faith
that I was pregnant. Before the result came out I typed out my
testimony and sent to sharing life's issues with Chaz B. 


I told him I was finally pregnant after months of trying. The results came out
and it was negative while walking home Chaz B of blessed memory read
out my testimony he was happy for me and he used me as a point of
contact to others TTC. I placed my hands on my tummy with tears
flowing freely I received the prayers. I fell ill as a result of the infection and my tummy started swelling I did 2 different scans to be sure there was no baby. People in my office were congratulating me and I received it. I treated the infection and it kept coming back DH was also treated and for us TTC we were told no sex till I was cured.

imagine my frustration but during a special program in my church God
miraculously healed me.

Months passed and still no pregnancy and everybody in the office thought I
had miscarried. But I maintained a positive confession. Whenever I was
asked by friends on the phone or anywhere ''if e don enter'' my
response was always YES and that brought me embarrassment as people
kept starring at my tummy. And for every month I saw my period I will
buy a tight fitting dress and told myself to rock it very well because
by next month I will be pregnant.

 I did this for months and even got tired but I maintained my confession. I have always wanted twins and I prayed for twins but as I was experiencing delay in conceiving I told God that for the delay I will get double.
 We had a program in our head church for women trying to conceive
and I didn't attend because even in church there were people that
gossip and I wanted this battle to be between me and God. That was a
mistake I regretted. About 3 months later sisters started giving
testimonies of how they took in during the service. Satan told me that
was my chance and I blew it. I rebuked him and kept telling myself
that my God is a God of chances.

As God would have it we had another program and this time I was ready
I prayed fasted and prepared for it. And it happened. three weeks
later I went for a test and it was POSITIVE, I was like na me be dis?
After about 10 negative results. Wow, Glory to God.

While praying I will say my baby is blessed and I will be like sorry
Lord babies. I want twins. So babies.  Then one day a voice came and
said this one you keep interrupting your payers why don't you just say
baby at least you are finally pregnant. So I started saying my baby is
blessed etc but the Holy Spirit remained me that I asked for twins so
why am I changing my confession now? Immediately I went back to.
Saying my babies.

Four months into the pregnancy I woke up with this feeling that I was
on my period. I wiped with tissue and behold there was blood. I
started praying, I prayed o. Then I called my hubby who wasn't around
him too fired prayed prayers. I went to the hospital I was told to do
a scan. While doing the scan I noticed that the lab man was starring
intensely at the computer screen, I became afraid I closed my eyes and
started speaking in tongues.

Oh Lay O BVs he told me I was carrying twins. Twins? Come and see
me I laughed, cried I was dramatic. Na so God dey answer prayers? The
lab guy couldn't check for their sex and after the excitement of
having twins cooled me and hubby started discussing their sex. He
wanted 2 boys I wanted a boy and girl. And I started praying for a
boy and girl I even had to beg my hubby to agree with me in prayer.
One day my mum called me that she dreamt I had 2 boys I felt down cos
my mum had this gift of dream. 

Like that wasn't enough I was comingback from work an old man stopped me and told me I will have twins I said smiled. He said 2 boys. I got home and told my mum. My mum told me to start shopping for boys things and from then henceforth whenever I prayed I said my boys are blessed etc. Then one day the Holy Spirit asked me if I was going to change my confession because of people told me? So I went back to confessing a boy and girl, I did another
 scan and behold it was a boy and girl.
