Baby is healthy and has grown quite a lot.. Its little legs were bent towards the face. No wonder I can feel prominent kicking and movement nowadays. I wondered how can babies hang on in a mother's womb for 9 months or more.. in such a limited space.. not much activities going on.. but yet, they grow very well and develop all their internal and external parts completely. Amazing! It was very moving to see the baby has a full formed face now..and it has its heart, stomach and we could even see its bladder. All nicely formed.
The Lord has different plans for everyone of us. He says in Sanathana Sarathi.. I give everyone different powers based on their capacity. For example.. The rain drops to earth, and it has water for all the plants in this world. But some plants are only capable of certain amount of water. Similarly, each of us will have to learn many things in life.. A little now and more later or vice versa. In my case, it's rather a very challenging era I am going through now.. Mother Kunti said in Mahabharata... "Dear Lord, shower me with more problems.. so that I get to think of you more often.."
I guess it was overconfidence that deluded me.. I thought the baby would have been back to normal again.. But sadly, its kidney is still swollen. The doctor has no idea what's wrong.. However, she said something very convincing.. Based on the growth and movement and everything else, the baby looks absolutely normal. That itself made me feel better. However, the swollen kidney looks like a mass of flesh. Nothing can be done now as the baby's still in the womb. What can be done is that when the baby is born, it will be closely examined and observed by a pediatrician.
Hmmm.. what can I say.. Patience and forbearance is the key. Oh Lord, please give me the strength to be positive, hopeful and faithful.. You say what you think that you become.. I am only counting on you.. Please listen to our prayers... I just want the baby to be fine my Lord.. Daya Karoh Bhagavan..
Jai Sai Ram
