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

[runnergrl]

I need to ask for prayer from you all. My son who is 16 months is spending his first weekend away from us with my in-laws and I am having a REALLY hard time with it. My MIL and I have a history of issues that I will not go into at this time. Lets just say she has not always respected my wishes as a mother and has openly defied me and my requests many many times. She is also extremely overweight and has recently had surgery making her even less capable physically of running after a very active toddler who is into everything. I have been praying about and trying to work on my end of the relationship ever since I was pregnant and she was giving me trouble then. (she laughed at me when I told her of my plans to breastfeed because its not what SHE did) Its been a huge struggle and a very real source of anxiety for me. It puts a strain on my relationship with my husband as well because while he sides with me 100% of the time, he lets her actions and words slide off his back, where as I take everything to heart and feel very insulted as a mother when she chooses to do things "her way" rather than the way i ask her to.
Please also pray for the safety and well being of my son during his stay with them.. (3 hours away)

Lord, please give me peace and understanding knowing that Brady's grandparents love him and do have his best interests at heart, even if it may not seem that way to me. Calm my spirit and allow me to let go of any fear or anxiety I have surrounding this issue and allow me to fully be with and enjoy my husband this weekend. Keep us all safe and reunite us with the Joy you have provided. Thank you so much for the amazing blessing that is my son and for the tiny growing miracle that will be his sibling.


Thank you all!!

i am still preying about all the ladys on here and i feel so positive toward u all but for some reason i keep getting doughts about myself and i really want those doughts to stop. i think it doesnt help because there has been so many losses in feb love bugs and alot have been told at there 12 week scan. my 12 week scan is on 13th aug. i just prey that i get told good news, were off on holiday strait after as well so hearing the good news b4 i go will make me relax and enjoy my holiday instead of worrying all the time. i c a midwife on 1st aug ill b 10+4 and im hoping ill b able to hear babys heart beat that wud really put me at ease for the 12 week scan. at the moment im just up one min and down the next thinking the worse. i hate goin on about myself but was just wondering if u wud all prey that everthing is ok and our baby is normol.

Hey Runner,

You and your entire family are in my prayers. I pray that the Good Lord grants you a huge measure of peace and that your MIL opens her heart to some of your concerns. Keep us updated, please.

Runnergirl, I can totally sympathize with your concerns. While I am not a mommy yet, I do know when this baby is born that he/she will not be going to stay with my MIL without my being present. She is not mentally capable of caring for a child, or anyone else for that matter. On the comment you made about DH being on your side 100% but letting her comments/actions slide off his back - I'm in that same boat sister. It's rough, because you know your husband sides with you, but he doesn't really let his mom's antics bother him (probably because he's so used to it that he just doesn't care anymore).
Prayers are with you and your little man, I'm sure all will be well when he returns. Enjoy your weekend!

girlfriend--you hit the nail on the head! he had heard and put up with her for 33 years and knows how she is, so he just ignores it. I try, but cant! Im sorry that you are in a similar situation, I really dont wish mine on anyone. I would LOVE to have a great relationship with my MIL.. I wish more than anything ours was better!!

 

[Kellen]

I am thankful that my MIL is 14 hours away. We get along, but I don't agree with their lifestyle. I am not a smoker and neither is my husband, but they smoke in the house and around their 20+ other grand kids. When we go stay with them after the baby is born we will be getting a hotel, which is sure to cause a ruckus.

Future, I have been battling negative emotions today too. Up until now I've had fairly constant symptoms, but they seem to be going away. I know this is normal for 10 weeks, but it is still kind of scary. You are always in my prayers and I know you're lifting us up too.

Praying for you future hopes. I know how it is to have your joy stole away with worry. I am so excited about this baby and I don't think I will be able to breath until I see the heartbeat but I know God will bring you peace as you wait for your next ultrasound. I am sure all will be fine and I will be praying for you and your baby. I am going to invest in a doppler pretty soon when I get 10weeks so I can try and keep this worry away. Lifting you up in prayer

[future hopes]

just got to trust in god i believe it was him that gave us this mirecle so im preying he keeps the mirecle safe.

Runnergirl, praying for your family. I can understand to a point. While I love my inlaws, they don't always agree with choices my husband and I make and I worry how it will be once the baby arrives. They do not live the healthiest lifestyle and I believe a lot of their action has led to their other grandchild being seriously over weight, as she spent most of her time with them as a child.
could I ask you a question quickly....I am assuming you are a runner, by your name! Did th continue to run through your pregnancy? I had just gotten back to running about 3 months before my bfp, and I'm debating if I should jog some or just stick to walking??

 

[runnergrl]

I would continue jogging as long as you can. I wouldn't do sprints or races though unless that was a part of your routine pre baby. Walking is also great. I ran as long as I could with #1 which, coincidentally wasn't very long sine my boobs got so big so fast-it was extremely painful to run with them flopping all over the place this time round I will stick to yoga and slow jogs and walking just like last time. My goal is to complete another half marathon 6 months after the baby is born. Hope this helps!

 

[PrincessBree]

Runner girl- I am in agreement with the prayer which you said-Amen. I can definately understand how you feel about allowing your son to stay with mil and I will keep you and Brady in prayer.God knows how precious he is to you and He will protect him.I know it's probably an impossible task but maybe try and do stuff that you enjoy to keep your mind occupied while Brady is away.I hope that the time flies by for you hun and ask for God to give you total peace.And also that God will heal and restore your relationship with them in a way that only He can before the arrival of baby number 2.I have had issues with mil myself and cannot begin to imagine what it would be like with kids involved!We are here for you hun xx


Aleigh713-Hey hun!!Welcome to the group we are looking forward to praying with you hun xx


Future-We are definately praying for you darling.I think that the way you are feeling is normal for any mum,whether it be their first or 5th pregnancy.God is not mad with us when we worry but He has always offered a better way for us to live xx we are going to pray for you that you begin to feel stronger again and more positive again.You are very much loved hun and your prayer requests are not a nuisance.xx
