Introduction
Hello, my name is Deidre Rogers, and I became a first-time mom at the age of 40 years old to an amazing little boy. After being told after some health issues that the possibility of me becoming a mother was highly unlikely, I accepted the fact that I would never be a mom and threw myself into my job. However, my life completely changed after the devastation of Hurricane Matthew, God gave me the greatest gift, I became pregnant! Motherhood is challenging at any age but becoming a mother in your 40's adds a whole new level of challenges. However, those days when I wake up and I feel defeated before my feet hit the ground I remember the words of Eric Thomas, "Some days are harder than others to get up early and grind, but I'd rather suffer a little today than struggle the rest of my life."
Hello Deidre, it's amazing to hear you were able to have a child and become a mother even after the chances were unlikely. I look forward to hearing about how you take on those extra hard days and keep moving forward.
ReplyDeleteHey Deidre! It's so encouraging to hear about you having your son! I was diagnosed last semester with endometriosis and don't know if I'll be able to have kids or have a healthy pregnancy if I can even get pregnant. I'm trusting God like you did and know whatever happens is all part of His perfect plan.
