blood transfusion while pregnant

So I found out my hemoglobin is so low to the point where I can die I have to have a blood transfusion this coming Friday, they have to test my boyfriends blood and then stick a long needle in my stomach to get a blood sample from the baby and then get another tube connected to her so that none of my blood gets to her if she is not my blood type I'm super scared I'm almost 20 weeks, and I am freaking out and need support

I can imagine that there is so much going through your mind at this time but I would like to encourage you to take courage during this time.Encourage yourself in every way you can.you need to activate your Faith and see yourself already passing that point,So I would like to take a step of Faith with you by thanking God in advance for going ahead of you and preparing everything for you from the room you will be in to the very doctors hands that will be there to assist you on Friday,God didn't promise everything would be easy but he did promise to be there with us and give us strength to endure these situations we All face.If you do not have the strength just tell God thank you because you have people out here that actually do care and do not have to know you but God knows and sees all,This Friday is already blessed for you just believe it.God bless take care.
