However, I remembered back to a blessing my wonderful priesthood honoring husband gave me when we found out I was pregnant promising me that the baby will be healthy and my pregnancy will be safe. I have a testimony that blessings given by worthy members of the priesthood are words of God and cannot be wrong. So I deci...
