Prenatal day surprises!


Brooklyn was quite the site on Tuesday. 23 women came in and out of the center along with friends, family, and boyfriends/husbands to get their prenatal care. One girl who I got to talk to in particular had an interesting story. She was a turnaround who was around 24 weeks pregnant. She hadn’t gotten to see her baby on the ultrasound since 9 weeks because she didn’t have insurance so you can imagine she was just about jumping out of her skin with excitement to get to see her child. There had been no boys born in her family for 27 years, so naturally she was praying for a boy. Her mother believed it would be a girl but made her daughter promise that if it was a boy she would have to start going back to church every week. Of course, it was a boy! Tears of joy filled the sonogram room and all thanked God for this blessing.
