Still In Shock
Submitted by: Tanya
Fort St. John, BC, CanadaI am a first time mom-to-be, who is married to the love of my life.
Where to start? My sister introduced me to The Secret a long time ago, but I guess I was too young and it was too unfamiliar for me to take it seriously. Quite a few years went by when a coworker/friend suggested that I watch it on Netflix. I did and this time I took it seriously.
Unlike other people, I didn’t have a hard time believing that the few bad things that have happened in my life were attracted by me. Even with knowing how they happened, I still didn’t realize just how negatively I was thinking in everyday situations. It took me some time and a lot of battles going on in my head to start to get ahold of my thoughts and feelings.
As soon as I watched the movie, I knew what I was going to use it for. My husband and I had been trying to conceive for about a year, with no results. It was getting harder and harder for me to actually believe that it was going to happen for us. Going forward, after watching the movie and reading tons of stories on this wonderful website, I started thinking differently. Still a few months went by and I had still not had a positive pregnancy test. I booked a doctors appointment and was put on medication that would help me ovulate. I believe The Secret lead me to this medication and that it was a tool for me to use to help my dreams come true.
In the middle of June 2013, with the addition to the medication, I also really started acting like I was already pregnant. I was more open in telling people about my future, I painted the room in my house that we were using for the nursery, and I set it up with a cradle, a rocking chair and a few other things. I changed my attitude towards women that were already pregnant and I started truly being happy for them. As the time came close where I could take a test, I had to fight my familiar thoughts that it would not happen and reminded myself that I deserve to be a parent. I took a test and to my amazement, it was positive. I thank God everyday for my healthy pregnancy and cannot wait to meet the new addition(s) in March of 2014.
My advice to you all is to never give up. My thoughts weren’t always perfect and God still found a way to give me what I had wanted for so long. This new way of thinking has changed my life forever and I will always expect nothing but the best for my future.
Next I am asking for my home business to be extremely successful so that I can always be a stay at home mom for all of my beautiful children. I know it will happen for me:)
Thank you for taking the time to read my story!
