[melenarz]

Aww, future, I'm so sorry for your loss. Just remember he is no longer in pain and with The Lord. I know it still hurts not having him here. You and your family will be in my prayers

 

[Beanonorder]

Hi ladies!
Welcome bright star! Triplets - amazing!
Congrats Jewel! I'm so glad you got your vbac!
Bree praying that this is your month!
Future so sorry about your grandad. Hugs x

Can I ask for some prayers? I only have 4 days left at home with my family. I'm missing by dh terribly but saying good bye here is going to be difficult. Its going to be so much harder on my parents because at least I get to take Amber with me. They know its going to be a while before they see her again. I'm just asking for strength and encouragement over this time and the future.

 

[sportysgirl]

Jewel congratulations on the birth of you gorgeous boy! Looks like you are both doing well.

Future so sorry for your loss, praying for you and your family.

Bean praying for you, its hard leaving your family behind. Safe journey back.

[Brightstarshi]

princess B ((((hugs))for your angel..praying for your BFP...
it certainly does come when you least expect.
we lost twins and then a single baby over 3/4 years.

Only a couple of days before I concieved I said to God,ok,ok I get it,I am not to have any more,I have 2 boys and I am really grateful..I will focus on making the most of what I have.,...etc etc

and 2 days later concieved
At a time when I should have not been able..!

Jewel,I have tears,he is so beautiful,we are all so very happy for you.
thats great that you got your vbac too.
I bet he smells soo good


Melen,it's normal for you to feel that way.
we will all be praying with you,everything will be alright.
I really enjoyed my births,all of them,and each was different.

God never gives us more than we can handle,think of the women of the bible who gave birth.

read up as much as you can of peoples positive experiences.
I recommend the homeopathy birthing kit too,absalutely fantastic for before birth and during.Really helped me,I am looking forward to using it again.

wow runner tomorrow you will be at 20 weeks!!!!

Bean-it will be alright,God is with you all.
((LOVE and PRAYERS)))

girls my dh is having a particularly hard time at the moment,would you pop him into your prayers if you could?

thanks so much

Future-Awwwwww hun I am so sorry to hear about your grandad I know from experience that it is a difficult one to overcome,especially when you are so close to them.Give yourself time to grieve hun. We are all here praying for you,and ask the Lord that your grandad will rest in peace."The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit."Psalm 34:18

Brightstar-We will be praying for your dh for sure.Thanx for your encouragement on TTC! The Lord knows I needed it!I know HE will give us a baby I totally believe,it is just the timing and not knowing that is a little crazy for me lol.I don't much like surprises lol but I guess He is teaching me that He is God and will come through for me in His own timing and way and does not need my help!I have kind of stopped obsessing and just thrown myself into my job,church ministry and taking care of my teenage cousin with dh and hoping that the Lord will come and find me working and let me know 'its time!'..I am excited about that day!

Do you watch any of the birth programmes on tv?I watch One born every minute and LOVE it.It always has a happy ending

Bean-Your time in SA has gone by so quick!I will be praying for you that your family will be strong in the Lord as you leave to return back home.I know dh will be happy to see you.May God give you and Amber a safe journey home and bless your future with baby and dh.xx

Jewel-Still praying for you and Jaden hun xxx hope your getting lots of rest x

Sporty-How on earth is Poppy 1 week already?!Where have all the days gone?! main pic is looking soo cute!

Me&MrB-Hope your appointment went well hun?xx

Ladies-For the next few days (from tommorow) I am going to be at a conference at my church(until Monday)I am really expectant about God and excited to see all that He will do and just being in His presence.

Please can you pray our strength dh and myself as we will be serving during the conference.I will be serving in the dance ministry.And my dh as a minister and ministers aid.I will try and get on as normal,but maybe wont be able to as much

Also can you pray for my sister she is going through a rough time right now she has had her first heartbreak and shes so broken ...I remember my first heartbreak and my heart shatters for her.Please can you pray that God would lift her spirit because she feels so low . I Know that God answers the prayers of the righteous!He will hear us on her behalf

Love you all ladies xxxxx

Right now im having a spiritual spring clean! Check out this devotional I read concerning having a spring clean for your spirit
"Create in me a pure heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me.” Psalm 51:10 (NIV)

My mom grew up in Pennsylvania Dutch country, with a deep tradition of spring cleaning. She passed along the habit to me, although I’ve never managed to emulate her degree of thoroughness.

Each year, as soon as winter retreated enough to let us open the windows, she’d dive in to days of hard work. She’d pull everything from a room, scrub the walls and floors, and wash the windows. Then she polished the furniture and also used the time to sort through drawers and declutter, wash curtains and linens, and flip mattresses.

I groaned when she recruited me to dust endless bookshelves, or hand-buff the wood floors. But I have to admit that the scent of lemon polish and freshly washed curtains billowing in the crisp spring air was intoxicating.

Every time I read Psalm 51, I think of spring cleaning. Repentance is a time to fling wide the windows of my soul and invite the fresh wind of the Holy Spirit to enter. It’s a time to invite Jesus to sort through the clutter I’ve accumulated and toss out the little pet sins that grow like dust bunnies.

He might push aside a larger dresser so I can see the dirt that’s piled up behind it, or throw open a window shade so the light reveals where my spirit needs some polishing. He frequently uses Scripture to show me the actions, words or attitudes that He wants to clear out.

Other times a friend might gently point out a blind spot, or I’ll hear a sermon that convicts me. Sometimes He’ll even show me the mess in my heart by letting me witness a similar problem in someone else. When I’m offended by someone’s action, I’ve learned to take a peek into the rooms of my soul, because it’s often a clue that I’m battling with that same root issue. The wonderful part of inviting Jesus to spring-clean my heart is that I don’t have to wait for spring. It can be a daily celebration of His forgiveness and the transformation He brings to my life.

Faith step: Invite Jesus to clean every nook and cranny of your heart. —Sharon Hinck

melenarz wow has time flew you are so close to having your baby it will be here before you know it you and runner's pregancy are moving right along so happy for you both

praying for all of you ladies and I thank God all the time for blessing me with this group

Ethan is doing well. He is already 7lbs 6oz so almost 3 lbs gained since birth. I can't believe he will be 6 weeks this Saturday. I am enjoying every moment and have been getting a little more sleep now that he is going any where between 3-4 hours without needing a feed. I also purchased a snuza hero monitor that clips to his diaper and that will set off a alarm if 20 seconds goes by without movement. It came in yesterday and I could finally get some rest without checking on him every few minutes to make sure he is breathing. I never knew they made things like this with my other children but it does help with peace of mind. love you all

I hate I be a whiner, but if I could ask for some prayers to tonight. My ribs are so incredibly painful. I have been using warm baths and ice packs and some Tylenol, though I am trying to avoid medication. I am trying so hard to deal and not complain, but tonight is getting almost unbearable- and I'm still coughing, which doesn't help! The pain is in my side up high toward my armpit, around into my back ribs and in the front just under my bra line. I'm just praying for some relief for a restful nights sleep.

Thanks runner, I got some sleep and it feels better this morning somewhat. I think I overdid it yesterday!

Brightstar-- I'm definitely into natural remedies, I've been seeing a reflexologist who helps with my sciatic pain and some of the pregnancy congestion and other aches and pains. D you have any specific recommendations?

 

[melenarz]

I Just wanted to take a minute and wish all of you amazing ladies (and beautiful and beautiful new babies, siblings and families!) a wonderful Easter!!
I love the words of an old hymn we sang growing up at my church....'because He lives, I can face tomorrow! Because He lives, all fear is gone! Because I know he holds the future, and life is worth the living just because He lives!'
