African or African-Americans TTC

[Vrainoire]

Finally I have to rant..me and OH broke up at the beginning of my 2ww can you believe that??!!! I've gotten so many words and confirmation from the lord today, so i'm good to go, but in all this I pray God's will be done!! I love that we all seem to have strong spiritual relationships in this forum..and looking on the bright side I've decided to go back to college and its a Christian school so maybe returning preggo might not be a good start..the more I type the more i seem to be getting stronger..I will not allow this to defeat me..God has the best in store for all of us!! thanks for listening(reading) lol

Morning ladies...Just a quick 'hi' for you all. I'm working from home for the next few weeks and it's a bit busy. I hope all is well and I'm praying for you all God is good, all the time! Don't ever forget it my sisters! Have a very blessed day.

 

[dannyboygirl]

Vrainoire I hear you girl.Girl Im so proud of you. Sometimes we want something God doesn't want for us at the moment. Things will work out for us all because God is gonna rain blessings on us..

 

[PurpleKisses]

Aww Vrai, I'm sorry to hear that! Is it for good?? Like a lady at my church back home said when my mom told her I was pregnant...she basically said that she'd rather see me fat and pregnant than to learn I had gotten rid of it (had an abortion)...stay strong hun. Things will work out as the Most High has intended them to.

DS has been traveling with my mom and she's bringing him back today before she flies out to Alabama on Wednesday...so it'll just be him and I for a while until OH gets back...I've missed my little boy so I'm excited to see him.

OH is out of town for a bit and I didn't realize I was going to miss him so much! I don't know if my hormones had something to do with it but I was all to pieces last night

Well, I hope everyone has a great start to their week! I gotta go. My school canceled all of my financial aid so I have to go on campus and see about that because I NEED to graduate in May and there's no way that's going to happen if I have no financial aid.

Have a great day ladies

 

[Vrainoire]

@Purplekisses i feel you 100% abortion isn't in my vocab..so like I said whatever happens I know God's will has been done..

 

[ready4onemore]

Good morning ladies,

I am feeling a little better today. I hope to be 100% tomorrow as my vacation starts at noon.

Vrain, I am glad you have a positive attitude about the break up. Just remember what my pastor once said, "you do not want what God doesn't want you to have." Stay positive and continue to bless the Lord and He will bless you. His word never returns void.

Purple, sweetie I miss my DH when he is gone too. I we have been married for 10 years this Thursday. I thought I would be okay but most time I am texting or calling him because I miss him so much. So its okay.

Have a good day ladies.

 

[PurpleKisses]

Wow, ready...10 years? Happy early 10th anniversary! I feel a lil bit better and I keep telling myself that I'm being silly because I know he's coming back lol. I found myself thinking, "While he's not here, who's gonna cook?!"...and then I bust into tears again. I know how to cook but I've gotten so used to him being here and looking after me that I've become very spoiled. Pathetic, right? I even thought about talking my mom into staying instead of going to Alabama...I know she would lol...but her and I can't get along for very long under the same roof...I love her, though.

Well, I'm off again...I'm starving...think I'm in the mood for a philly chicken and cheese

Still trying to figure out my financial aid dilemma. They told me that I no longer qualify for federal aid...so my only other option is a private loan. On the bright side, I did get a scholarship from my department...but it only covers $3500 of the almost $20,000 that I need...but at least that's something. I keep telling myself that God wouldn't have brought me this far no to see me through to the end...I don't know what I'm going to do if I don't graduate in May...I think I might go crazy because I'm only 28 credits away.

All of this just makes me miss my OH more...he listens to me rant (and cry) and knows how to make me feel better about my situation. Guess I'll vent to him tonight when he calls...

Hopefully, something will come through for me.

 

[ready4onemore]

@Purple, something will come through. I am praying with you. I know God want leave you. Just trust Him.

 

[mrskcbrown]

@Vrainoire: Praying for you hun and hope all works out in your favor.

@ready: Congrats on the anniversary!

@purple: Praying that God does something special in this situation and that you come our on top!!!


As for me, today had to go to drs for heart monitor because sometimes my heart beats fast so my OB just wants to check on that. So I have to wear this thing for 24 hours.

My trip to VA was so much fun. I truly enjoyed my hubbys family. They are so excited about this baby!! Ive been more tired this second tri and Ive been more nauseous. I felt nothing first tri, so now its catching up with me.
Cant believe Ill be 15 weeks soon.....

 

[Mrs O]

Hi all,

I have been awol for a long while ...

Big congrats to all the mum's to be and baby dust to all still trying.

Don't forget that Delay is not denial

 

[PurpleKisses]

@MrsK~ glad to hear that you had a great time! Hopefully the nausea and tiredness won't last long. I didn't start getting my energy back until about 19-19 1/2 weeks. Time flies doesn't? I hope everything turns out ok with your heart...that must me scary.

Hi Mrs O! When are you due??

Is anyone testing this week???

Thanks for the prayers ladies! I'm staying positive and faithful because I know the Most High has a plan.

 

[mrskcbrown]

Hi all,

I have been awol for a long while ...

Big congrats to all the mum's to be and baby dust to all still trying.

Don't forget that Delay is not denial

Hey mrs. O. Glad you are back. I see your pregnancy is moving right along!!!

@purple: Yes all will be well. It just beats really fast sometimes but of course since Im wearing this monitor, it wont do it Yes God is the most high and he will bless you and us!!

 

[FutureMommie]

MrsKC- Glad your trip was great, and hope that you are feeling better today.

Danny-Yay you found a church, it sounds awesome

Purple- People can be so judgemental before they even know your story, you did the right thing by just walking away, I don't know if I could have....I hope everything works out with your financial aid, you are right in saying that God did not bring you this far to leave you. I understand the struggles of college, it wasn't easy for me either, I had to sit out a couple of times becuase I just didn't have the money but I never gave up I just kept pressing forward, now I know that God had a plan for me, and he has one for you too, you've come to far to turn back now, so take those private loans if necessary, God will make the way for them to be repaid. One day you will be able to look back and say "oh so this was his plan for me" I know I've been able too. Good Luck!

Vrainoire- I'm sorry to hear about you and OH but I'm glad you are in a positive place and can accept that this wasn't God's will for you.

Kareen- Thanks for always having an encouraging word.

Ready- Glad you are feeling better.

About me, I still haven't tested waiting to see if AF will show, if she does it will be sometime today or tomorrow, my cycle is usually between 28 and 29 days. I can't say I wont be disappointed because I will but I will just look forward to the next cycle.

I so love this thread and chatting with you ladies, you are so encouraging and I love the fact that I can talk about my faith in God and not have to worry about whether someone is offended.

Will chat later have a great day.

 

[PurpleKisses]

Thanks, Future! Lots of for you!

You ladies are truly beautiful women! I have 2 sisters and I feel like you all have been more like sisters to me the short time I've been part of this thread than they have ever been. Like I called my oldest sister (who's 36) yesterday trying to get in touch with my mom because her phone kept going straight to voicemail. I told my sister about my financial aid situation and I felt really discouraged after talking to her. I guess she could hear that I was nearly in tears so she offered a "Well, I hope it works out for you."...not really what I needed to hear, ya know. I started to call my other sis because I'm going to need a cosigner, but she wouldn't even cosign on an apartment for me...so I know she won't cosign on a student loan. But whatever...things are going to work out because I know I'm blessed and highly favored. I honestly cannot think of a time when God didn't provide when I needed. College has truly been a journey for me; I lost my father and gave birth to my son...there were times when I was working 2 jobs, going to school and had my son to take care...and the Most High has brought me through all of that so I really don't see myself not graduating in May. As OH said to me, I was born to be an engineer lol...everybody knows how much I love what I'm learning and what I'm going to be doing in my career...it was truly God's doing that brought me into my major because when I first started I honestly didn't know what an electrical or computer engineer did lol.

I guess that's my little testimony for the day. Lol.

Well, I hope everyone has a lovely day.

 

[Mrs O]

@ PurpleKiss : I know that God will come through for you. Just keep trusting him.

By the way I am due on the 17th Jan.

Anyone heard of Supernatural Childbirth???

 

[PurpleKisses]

@ Mrs O~ Oh ok. I'm due on the 3rd.

Supernatural Childbirth? That sounds interesting...what's that about?

Yes I know all will be well. Im praying for you and I know that you will find a way to pay for school. Can OH help you?

 

[mrskcbrown]

Yes, I would like to know what is supernatural childbirth as well?

 

[FutureMommie]

Just thought I would pop in and say AF is here, I'm spotting but I'm cool, on to the next cycle. my philosophy this cycle? "Let Go and Let God"

Good philosophy Future mommie.

Have you sought the help of a specialist? I know you said that you have been TTC for 2 years? Also do you chart your cycles? I tried for nearly 16 months before getting my BFP but when I started to chart, I got BFP on 2nd month of that. I can help with that if you are interested.

I was hoping that you got your BFP but you are right in God's perfect timing you will get preggo.
