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

Hi Ladies, don't know how I missed this group before but I'm glad I found it! We prayed so hard for a bfp specifically this cycle and God answered our prayers, I know this sound funny but the day I tested which btw is the earliest I've ever gotten a bfp (10dpo) I literally got down on my knees right there in my bathroom and begged God that if it was a His will thAt I'd get a bfp, a couple minutes later my digi had that wonderful word "pregnant"! God is so amazing and I've been thanking Him everyday!
 
Welcome jlw and congratulations! What an awesome blessing. I hope you have a wonderful pregnancy.
 
Ndh That is great news!!!I pray that God will continue to watch over you and baby:) how is it being pregnant with two girls to take care of ? Xx

3 boys I hope your appointment comes through soon I too expected to hear about my appointment and ended up having to chase them down lol as the booking in procedure for 12 weeks had changed!!I can't believe your already nearly 12 weeks though what a blessing !!

Bean awww yaay you haven't got long left !! I understand your concerns :) your strong little seems to have quite a little character already since he's do comfortable and not willing to budge lol bless him !! Well either way God knows what you can handle so I'm sure whichever birth you get be it natural or c section you are going to do so well :) I can't wait lol

Jlw welcome !!! It's always lovely to have a new face on the thread :) how awesome is God He has surely answered your prayers you are so blessed here's to a happy and healthy 9 months !! Do you know how far gone you are just yet ?

Afm I don't think I've ever mentioned but we are expecting a lovely baby BOY lol which is what we asked God for when we began TTC in 2010 it is strange for me because I'm a girls girl and I have grown up with sisters lol but my desire to have a baby boy first was kind of impressed into my heart and dh !! Even before his gender was confirmed we have been calling him "he" !!! I'm so excited and thank God for going ahead of us on this journey....

My pain has reduced thank God !! The exercises have been working so I am still hobbling around but not having pain with each step no more so that is good !! Since we are moving I go on maternity in 2 weeks so that is super exciting...its a lot of new begginings ahead I'm excited nervous and overwhelmed all at the same time lol xx
 
Congrats on your little boy that's amazing. We have asked God for this to be a girl. In fact before I found out I was pregnant my 5 year old daughter came to me and said she was getting a sister. I asked her why she would think that and she said she had asked God and he said yes. We will see. I adore my boys so it doesn't matter either way but I would love another daughter.
 
3 boys that is so sweet I pray God gives you and your sweet daughter the desires of your heart :) I remember I was an only child until I was 12 I prayed and asked God specifically for a sister...God gave me one that year and another sister 3 years later lol they are 12 and 15 now still a blessing to me to this very day ...its lovely to see little siblings growing up together :)
 
Yes I think especially as she is homeschooled with 5 brothers it would be lovely for her to have a sister to share the girly stuff. I'm amazed by how girly she is I thought she would be a complete tomboy
 
Bree that it lovely that you have been blessed with exactly what you wanted.
3boys I hope you will be too.
I must admit I am very nervous about having a boy. I won't go as far as to say disappointed. I think it's just the unknown and also packing away all the girls clothes, knowing I'll never get to use them again. But I'm looking forward to seeing how he's different. Although dd is such a tomboy anyway! Dh is disappointed though. He only reluctantly agreed to having a second one and he really wanted another girl.
 
Bean I understand the unknown can be scarey!! I do hear such lovely things about baby boys and how much they adore their mothers and run up and give the best hugs and are funny .And I hear that little girls are super adorable and cute and just the sweetest little princesses :) sounds like you will have the best of both worlds!! I think it's good that you own how you feel about his gender though xx I think once you have him in your arms for a lovely cuddle those feelings will melt away xx
 
Happy Sunday ladies !!

I found this beautiful prayer of thanks for our children.

Prayer Of Thanks For My Unborn Baby

In the name of the Lord Jesus I bring my unborn child to You Lord and thank You for this gift of grace that has been granted to me. Lord You have heard my prayers as you did Hannah in the bible and have granted me the privilege of bringing a new little life into the world. I pray that my pregnancy may be free of complications and that my little baby will be born perfectly healthy and complete.

Lord I pray that your hand of grace would be on this child not only in the womb but once he is born. May he come to know and love You Lord and grow into a strong and healthy little child who comes to know the Lord Jesus as his Saviour.

Father I thank and praise You for all the great things that you have done for me and for all the things as yet unknown that You have in store for us all. Lord I love you and stand in awe of the wonderful miracle of life that is growing inside of me and lift up my hands to praise Your glorious name, Amen.

PLUS here in the UK it is Mothers Day so just wanted to send some love to all of you beautiful mothers out there :)
May God bless you for all of the sacrifices and hard work you do take care of your children and keep your families together.May God give you peace and rest as you raise your children to love Christ .No matter how hard it gets always rmemever that you ARE doing a great job and if no one ever says thank you God is watching and is pleased with you :) Take a moment in all the mothering chaos to celebrate yourself today you are fabulous !!!! Xxxx

Have a gorgeous blessed day all :)
 
Yes bree happy mothers day. The day is bitter sweet for me it's the first without my mum
 
PrincessBree-how awesome God answered your prayer about a boy! We too have been praying that God will give us a boy. we have two little girls which we wanted it that way our first was a girl of course which we were thrilled about, then when we got pregnant again, we both wanted another girl, dh did because he loves being a daddy to his girls, I especially did because I wanted my daughter to have a sister because I had always wanted a sister growing up. But now I'd really love a boy, I love my daughters so much and I think that boys and girls have a special bond with their mothers but there is something different about the bond between a mother and son, I really feel like God is going to answer our prayer on that too! Do you have any name ideas yet? I know we want something Biblical, we both really like Nathaniel which comes from the Hebrew name netan'el and means given of God or gift of God!
 
Awww you have two beautiful girls :) how precious!! I will be praying with you that God gives you the desires of your heart !! I too have been hearing about this special bond between a mother and her son so I'm intrigued to know what that is like ...mother and daughter is super special too because you have shopping and girly stuff in common or whatever you both like to do :) remember I said I have sisters who are quite young so I am like a 2nd mom to them and let me just say the teenage years are fun to say the least because you can share your experiences with them ,the heart breaks the ups the downs so that is something which I think is really special :) It will be interesting to see how that is with a teenage son one day ..I have heard that men who have a super strong bond with their mom's (if they get the chance to ) make great husbands lol

We have picked the name River for our baby boy :) the biblical meaning of River is vessel of God..Nathaniel is a gorgeous name !! Love it xx
 
We have picked Aaron for boy and Sophia for girl
 
What an awesome name princessbree! I would have never thought of something like that! Totally agree with you on the bonding in all aspects, I guess each offers their own ways of bonding but yes we are hoping to raise a Godly man that will make a wonderful husband and father one day if The Lord tarries

3boys- I love both those names as well!

I'm so not sure what we will name a girl yet, guess I'm just hoping for a boy so much that I haven't thought too much about it yet all though at one point we were considering the name Penelope.
 
3 Boys those are both such adorable names I especially love Sophia as it makes me think of a sweet little girl I used to work with at the old school I worked in...she was super girly and had a squeaky little voice lol bless

jlw- Aww thanks I actually got the name from a video I will post below....I saw this birth and cried my way through the entire thing, when were ttc for the past 4 and a half years...to hear the joy, bliss , excitement and love I heard in the mothers voice I said to myself one day I will have a little baby River of my own...thankfully when we found out he was a boy dh agreed!! Its nice that you and dh have agreed on a boy name so early since its your hearts desire..when is the baby due for you guys ?


Check video below xx

Trigger waning loss mentioned, but I though you ladies would appreciate this article <3
https://www.surrenderbirth.com/educate/successful-birth/

I was certain my first was a boy. I had always wanted a girl first and DH wanted a boy. He said there were no girls born first in his family and I wanted to break the trend. After 2+ years TTC I found out DH wanted a boy first because he thinks every girl ought to have a big brother and I was sold and gave up on my desire to just break the trend, and prayed to give DH the desires of his heat. So when I became pregnant that month I was sure it was a boy. But nope. I love her to pieces and he does too (she's the blonde haired blue eyed girl I've dreamed of since I was about 12, but never thought I would have with my genetics)
I know DH really wants his boy so I also hope we're having one this time. A son will be named Jeremy Trevor, but we don't have any girls names discussed this time/
 
Ndh- Read the article such a great reminder to stay focused on Christ :) Awww that is so sweet that you have the little girls you dreamed of...I am seeing from everyones response that God really does honour our prayers in one way or another whether it takes years or comes in a different way we expect,He really does hear us and answers..I hope you and dh get your baby Jeremy this time round :)
 
Such a sweet article Natalie and so true! Princessbree, I'm not due until November! But im sure that time will start to fly soon as we should be moving to a different town in about a month and after that, my in laws com to visit, then I go on summer vacation to Idaho for 3 weeks yet and...you get the point lol, I should be pretty busy for quite a while!
