Christian Ladies-Let's Pray for our Babies!!

[melenarz]

3 boys, I have a lot going on between my own mother and mil and work and life. I'm in therapy right now, but I had been sick and on vacation and got delayed in my visits. I have been treated for depression in the past. So, I'm not sure if it is the depression, hormones or what exactly. Sometimes I do great, sometimes, not so much

Thank you so much for your prayers, I know they help and are a great comfort

Ladies I saw that there was an explosión in Texas .I know there are ,some ladies on here who reside in Texas ,please can you let us know that you are ok!What a strange week Its been~thank God for the hope we have in our Lord and Saviour.

Melenarz I am so sorry you are going through a rough time with depresión.It is something ive battled with personally so i understand that guilt of feeling like you should feel happy .One thing that helped me with depression is changing my diet .I had to completely cut out foods that are high in salt ,fat,sugars ,caffeine etc Because believe it or not those food were playing with my emotions!This maybe something which you could look into there are even foods which you can eat which are supposed to be good for your mood.It may not be the cure but could do you some good .Try to get lots of Hugs and tlc from dh as well .Supporr from him and maybe someone a friend who youcould talk to or someone at church ? Dont suffer in silence hunni . We are all praying for you xxx

Yes the explosion at the fertilizer plant in Texas just adds sadness and confusion to whats happened in the US this week. There arent a lot of details yet as to whether it was a fluke or something deliberate, the number of those injured or dead, or how much destruction (loss of houses, etc) really occurred. the people affected though, is in the 100's. law enforcement and firefighters are reported to be among the dead.

Please continue to pray for us. (America) This has been a very trying week and I hope it turns a lot of hearts towards our loving savior!

Melenarz I hope you mood is better soon. Depression is a hard illness and unless you have suffered its difficult to understand. Praying for you.

Bree sorry to hear you are unwell, praying that you recover soon.

Hello ladies. I have been reading through the post trying to catch up. I haven't been on for a while but I have been praying for all of you. We have been doing some remodeling and I have just been able to get my computer hooked up. Ethan is doing great and growing he is almost 10 lbs so I couldn't be happier with his growth. I hope you all are doing well Bree I hope you are feeling better. Welcome 3 boys to the group. I read about your son's speech problem and I can relate. My now 8 year old and 6 year old son had a bad speech delay. My 8 year old was so bad when he started pre k the teachers or classmates could not understand a word he said. He had a cousin the same age in the same room and she could understand him better growing up around him and she had to tell the teacher what he was trying to say. He was put in speech thearpy and I am proud to say that his speech teacher called me Friday and is releasing him from speech and today my main problem with him is getting him to stop talking so much. My son Luke we got help for much earlier before he even started school. He is still in speech class but has come a long way and now everyone can understand what he is saying. I have missed you all so much and sending you all prayers and love

Could I ask for prayers, please? I'm just struggling with a lot of fear and anxiety and forgetting where I need to turn with these feelings.

Thanks

Anxiety is a horrid feeling, I hope you can find a way to deal with it and relax, have you tried some hypnotherapy? Saying prayers for you.

 

[melenarz]

Sporty, I have not. I'm going to counseling, but it's been delayed a few weeks with me being sick and traveling. It's mainly my mom and mother in law causing the anxiety. I was able today to sit down and write out my 'rules' for the hospital and first few weeks at home. That helped some. I plan on taking them to my session Friday. I think I narrowed down my reasons for feeling as I do right now: I am scared and I am afraid of certain people not respecting me when it comes to D-day and coming home. I do feel some relief identifying issues, but not enough! Lol

Deuteronomy 31:8
The LORD himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged.

Psalm 36:5
Thy mercy, O LORD, is in the heavens; and thy faithfulness reacheth unto the clouds.

Thank you Brightstar, I needed that this morning. I'm really struggling these last few days with so much in life.
You ladies are all such a blessing!

Can you believe Amber is 4 months old today!! I was watching a video clip of her when she was only a couple of weeks old and the changes are phenomenal! Where did my baby go?!
On a proud note - she rolled over for the first time earlier this week! And my dh and I both got to see it.
Still praying for you all. I'm quite excited, I'm going to a bible study tomorrow evening with a group of foreigners. I'm a little nervous as I don't know anyone bug I'm looking forward to some good fellowship!

 

[melenarz]

Bean, the bible study sounds awesome!! Have fun!!
That is so wonderful you both got to witness her first roll over!! Too cool!!!
It seems like amber was just getting here the other day..... I am trying to slow things down now and enjoy being pregnant, but it seems like the more I try to slow down and enjoy, the faster it goes. Yesterday was great though, I went to see my 10 year old cousin as he has been wanting to see and feel the baby move, he got to feel a knee or foot just kinda pressing on my belly and got to see it kick and roll. He exclaimed "what the?!?!? That is GROSS!!!!" Lol! I guess that is what I should expect from a 10 year old boy! It really made my day and cheered me up greatly! I love all the movement, and my cats do too, and of course dh!

 

[melenarz]

I need to ask for prayer right now. I'm at a point I don't know what to do. I can't stay working in this job anymore because I get so worked up and worried over everything it physically makes me sick. It is becoming more and more demanding and going to start taking more time away from my family. And I know once I go back to work after the baby is born its just going to be worse. I want more than anything to quit and stay home, but my husband won't hear of it right now. I am under so much stress right now between working, my in laws, my parents and being terrified of the next couple months I am completely losing it.
Thank you

Praying. I was in that same spot when I was pregnant with my now 2 year old. I would go home from work and just cry. I couldnt bear the thought of leaving him and going to work at a job I hated for people I did not respect. My husband wouldnt hear it either and I had to become very proactive. Thats when I found the nanny job that I workd for 16 months. I was with my son and still had significant money coming in. could you possibly look into something like that?
