Sometimes things just make no sense till you wait a while

This has been my most confusing pregnancy, given that it was my 1st planned pregnancy that is strange. First I was told I'm about 3 weeks (5 weeks) pregnant, then I was called back and told that they had made a mistake and I am not pregnant at all and should test again in 3 weeks time. I felt pregnant though, so I waited a few days and bought a pregnancy test. This test confirmed the pregnancy. I then figured that my hormone levels just took longer to increase. When I figured I was about 6 weeks, I started spotting and I was so upset because I thought I'm losing the pregnancy. The spotting was bright red and lasted about 4 days. It didnt become less and so I made an appointment with my OB on about day 4. She then confirmed my suspicion of miscarriage. I was so disappointed and when I got home decided I really needed to pray about this. We prayed and the bleeding stopped. I went to see my OB 3 weeks later because it seemed as though all the pregnancy symptoms were getting stronger and the ultrasound confirmed that I was still pregnant and that everything looks good. Apparently I am not as far along as I thought, but all is well. Not everything makes sense when we want it to. I believe in the power of prayer.
