Christian ladies TTC, we can encourage one another.

[SuperwomanTTC]

I just wiped after going to the bathroom and it was tinted dark red. Please pray for my little one. I don't have any cramping or anything and I've been feeling nauseated for the past few days so I was totally shocked when I saw the color. Lord, please don't let me lose this little one too! Not again!

I'm praying that God keeps His hedge of protection around your precious little one!

 

[beckysprayer]

Thanks for the prayers everyone. I'm trying to hold onto hope, but I think this little one will be going to heaven too. I've had brown bleeding since the first spotting. It's brown, but enough that I need to wear something so it's probably only a matter of time.

Heavenly Father I lift beckysprayer to you Jesus. So often when we are going through times of worry or uncertainty we often overlook you in thankfulness but in desperation to fix our hurt, to answer our prayers, to soothe our hearts. We forget to thank you in the midst of pain. We don't need you to save us, you have saved us. We don't need you to heal our bodies, you have healed us.

We ask that you continually bless our hearts and mind, knowing you HAVE ALREADY blessed our wombs, you HAVE ALREADY fought for our victories.
You are before us, in the distance, encouraging us to walk through the fire into your peace.

So i say thankyou right now Jesus for beckysprayer, thankyou heavenly father for placing her here on this thread to be able to share fellowships of hardships and of joy together. It is not through desperation but thankfulness you hear our cry. We lift up your promises, and declare healing in Jesus name.

Ekkk i feel like i've been stabbed emotionally, i cant help but cry for you.
I have no words Becky... i almost feel like it is me going through your hurt, and i want to say sorry that you are enduring this.

Have you had a Dr's confirmation?

I cant tell you how many m/c i have had... 1, 2, 3... but i NEVER stopped believing, hoping and praying.

I never stopped asking, crying out to God for answers. We think that because we are Christians we have to sit back and deal with pain quietly and appropriately according to others. I say otherwise.

I say stand up, speak up and voice to God your pain. Yell at him if thats what you need to do. As children of God, we need to speak to him like we are waiting to be spoken back to. He wants us to get in his face and demand an answer, an explanation for his ways, his ways of blessing us now or next year, his ways of sometimes not interfering with loss. Hassle him like children we are, declaring our authority here on earth, and the authority God has to bless us according to his Grace.

I am so sorry beckysprayer for what your going through. I really felt the need to express to you, to push your pain away from your body and unto God, who can deal with the heaviness of pains, and most certainly your questions right now.

So many hugs go out to you right now.. i felt to first post this privately to you.. but then somehow felt to repost this publicly... i hope you dont mind my heart and what im sharing with you through this sensitive time xxx

May I request prayer please. Im really struggling to stay positive and Ive been trying lots of prayer but im still quite low, does anyone know any good verses for me to read or worship songs?

Anything Hillsong, Hillsong United, Casting Crows, Bethany Dillon, Matthew West etc. I often find going on iTunes and searching christian music and then seeing whats out there i can download or listen to for free.

There is no greater act of love then when we worship God in pain or disheartening of spirit. You will find a faster breakthrough then ANY OTHER ACT YOU DO. For God to see you worship him when things in your life are out of order, when you don't understand his ways shows God you love him despite what your going through, and you trust him to prevail.

I highly recommend Joyce Meyer & Beth Moore, found on youtube.

Heavenly Father, I echo the prayers that have already been lifted. Your word says that where two or more are gathered that you are there and I believe that rings true on the internet as well! Touch her, give her a peace and a calm. You have this in your capable and wise hands. You are our healer and protector, and we claim that for Becky right now! Whatever doubts the enemy may be planting in her, we cast away in the name of Jesus! Thank you for our sister, Becky, Lord! Thank you for this forum and for placing us all here and thank you for your love and faithfulness. In the name of your precious son, Amen!

Don't give up Sweetie! My cousin bled like that through most of her first tri with her sweet little boy, and he is 2 1/2 yrs old now! Also, many ladies on other boards had the same thing and went on to deliver healthy babies. I'm hoping and praying with all my heart that you are one of those ladies and your LO is ok...

So sorry to hear you're sick, Sarah! The flu that's going around right now is a nasty one - praying you're feeling better soon!



DH and I have finally shared with our church home group that we are TTC. I was hesitant at first because we are the only couple in our group with no children. It was a surprise to me when we went to share it that he had already let the beans spill at his Men's Fraternity group that morning. I guess the more people praying for us, the better, but I really didn't want a TON of people to know. No need to add the pressure of, "So... you two have any announcements, yet?!" to the mix.

I've been feeling really discouraged about myself recently, but having a good cry this morning and having DH pray over me has helped a lot. It's a good thing I ran myself dry of tears early because we found out our "firstborn" (almsot-8 y/o boxer dog) has metastatic lymphoma this afternoon.

Oh goodness, don't I sound like a ball of sunshine?! On a positive note, this evening DH was named head baseball coach for the team he's been assistant coaching for the past 2 years. I'm looking forward to getting a "Mrs Coach" jacket!

I would hurry to a Dr and see what they think. Sometimes bleeds like that are caused by a variety of things. It's so hard to feel what you are feeling. The fear and the desperation. But just keep in mind that the Lord is good and always has a plan.

Thank you for your prayers...I'm feeling so much better now. I just have a little cough and runny nose, nothing I can't handle

Wow! It's a huge step coming forward and sharing your ttc journey with others. I pray that they remain sensitive to you both during this time and that you won't get all those questions we dread. I hope they take this knowledge about you and bring you both up in prayer.

You have a boxer too?!? I'm so sorry to hear that, it's so hard to go through things, even with pets...they become like family. How did you find out about the lymphoma? Were there any symptoms?

Yay for positive notes My husband used to coach high school girls basketball, and I loved going to the games and watching him in action. Yes, get that jacket and wear it with pride

 

[Godsjewel]

You are AMAZING...yes, you!

When someone comes on here to post about a bad situation going on, or because they are feeling down and having a bad day, you immediately take the time to post a message to help bring encouragement to them and lift their spirit.

It fills my heart with joy to know such amazing women that have a heart of compassion towards others. Know that God sees your good deeds and no good thing will He withhold from those who walk uprightly.

Therefore encourage one another and build one another up, just as you are doing. 1 Thessalonians 5:11

Not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near. Hebrews 10:25

To speak a word in due time, is like apples of gold on beds of silver. Proverbs 25:11

Most of you know I went to see the Obstetrics Physician who deals with high blood pressure yesterday, and this is what happened…

As soon as I got to the place, I tried to just relax and enjoy the scenery outside the window, but nope..didn't work. So they weighed me and did my BP and that darn BP machine at the Doctor's office got the best of me...lol! My BP was 145/89. They directed me towards the doctor’s office and had me wait for the doc to come in. All of a sudden, my hands started to feel all clammy and I started to get nervous...I mean, this guy has the power right now to say, "We should probably wait for you to do IVF until we make sure your BP is consistently in the normal range." We discussed my medical history and he believes it's mainly passed from my family, but there are things I could do to help it...eat right, exercise..etc. He looked at my labs and previous medical records and said other than infertility, endometriosis and high blood pressure...I'm pretty healthy (gold star for me)

He said the medication I'm on is good, but there is a better one for when I become pregnant, I told him, "Yes, I like what you said..when you become pregnant" He said he sees nothing in my history that could prevent a pregnancy or me moving forward in this process....Can I get an AMEN?!? He asked me when I wanted to start the IVF process and I said...NOW! hahaha! Then I had to share what the Lord did for us, so I told him God blessed hubby and I with this opportunity of having great insurance coverage and he was amazed, he said that was GREAT coverage. I want to be sure to always give God the glory for what He has done.

I told him I wanted to start right away since I've been waiting over 5 years and he said, "no problem, I'm going to fax over the clearance paperwork to your physician right now" WOOHOO!!!

So guess who called the IVF clinic this morning and scheduled her next appointment??? THIS GIRL!!!

I go in for a IVF cycle review on the 29th.

Congrats Mrs. Coach! Definitely get the jacket!

I'm very sorry to hear about your fur baby Is there anything they can do?

The extra prayers from your group can't hurt, but I hope they take into consideration that questions like that are painful and frustrating and not ask them. Seems like my catch phrase of late is, "when we know, you'll know!"

Hang in there, Hon. Seems like you are going through a "Job time" right now, but, like Job, God will bring you through it with double blessings on the other side

[No Doubt]

I'm so excited for you to be moving forward in the process GJ! Only a matter of time now.

Queen, I'm so sorry about pup. I know it's hard and they are definitely family...I have three of my own, one of which has the auto-immune disease where he toenails fall off. That's nothing compared to cancer, but I understand...I was freaking when I thought it was just a broken toenail. Hopefully he's not in any pain.

[HisGrace]

Becky - You are in my prayers. Don't give up on God. I have been where you are and I now how hard it is, but it's not always bad news. We are all praying for you.

Sarah - Praise God! That was quick. Can't wait to hear the rest of your testimony.

 

[VGibs]

Sarah - WOW! So what is an IVF review??? I'm fairly clueless as to what goes on with IVF.

I was thinking of you ladies this morning. As I shower in the morning I listen to Joyce Meyer. This morning she said something that struck me completely by surprise. "Love hurts. But it's worth it." I though about it a minute and kind of had a moment of "Love isn't supposed to hurt." But then I thought about it more. And I thought of how much we love our partners and those of us who have loved our little babies that have been sent back to heaven. And how our hearts ache when we get one more BFN....all of those painful, heart hurting moments are brought about by our supreme love and desire to have children. We already love and cherish the little ones we haven't conceived yet, and the tiny babies we will someday see again. Love does hurt.

 

[me222]

Becky- praying for you. What's happening??? Hugs.

Sarah- thanking God for this opportunity He has given you and for your amazing witness to your dr! wow!!! Thanks for being a great example to the rest of us!!! Praying for a child for you and for each of you on here as well as thanking God for the children God has already provided some of you.

AF came on Tuesday night. I had a bit of a cry just before as it hurts. My closest friend told me last night about a woman she knew who knows someone who just got pregnant after ttc for 13 years. My friend talked about how hard that must've been for this woman. I just nodded politely while hurting deep inside. My friend doesn't know we've been ttc for 2 years. But, perhaps God used her to encourage me to not give up? I don't know. God's will is perfect and I need to trust Him. That doesn't mean I don't have to deny my feelings. Yes, I hurt and I cry out to Jesus- He can handle our complaints, our hurts. He loves us and His will is perfect.

Many hugs to all of you as we all struggle through this journey. May God be glorified in our suffering as well as in our joys.
