F.A.I.T.H. (Forsaking all, I trust Him)

Deb- I had a dental abscess a few years ago. It turned out I had to get the tooth pulled in the end. My face was so swollen. I took some pictures and kept them. I look at it about once a year and hope that never happens again. I hope your mouth feels better soon!

Rdy- I am praying the clomid works!

MrsKC- I am getting my first scan on Tuesday too. I can't wait! So hoping to see a little heart beat.

Willb- I don't have my first prenatal appointment until next week. I will be 9 weeks on my appointment day. With my second I didn't have my first appointment until week 14.

MrsKC & Willb- It feels like more people know than don't now. We were just on vacation and the conversation around kids and if we are having more always seems to come up. So we would say we want one more and then felt like we would be lying if we said we weren't expecting. It was neat telling my one SIL to find out she is due one day after us! She had an u/s today as she woke up feeling not PG and her breasts felt not full and not irritated. This is what happened with her two m/c's and so they went to the hospital as she wanted to know right away if that was the case. They saw a heart beat for the first time! So I am feeling relieved about that. She said the symptoms returned with a vengeance about an hour after they left the hospital. She felt silly for going but at the same time felt relieved for knowing all was well and they in fact have a baby in there and it is measuring right on target and had a hb. I am feeling even more excited now!

Guppy- I hope the other people approached your friend in love. It has to be hard to see your friend not making a wise decision.

AFM- We had a lovely holiday. I was ready to come home in the end. I can handle about a week of my MIL before it becomes too much. We were there 12 full days. She just grinds on my nerves and purposefully irritates and insults me. She does the same to my one SIL (because we don't agree with her 100% of the time) She makes implications that we feel we are people that we aren't... She was making comments on my FB page the entire time that were rude and rubbed me the wrong way. I help out a lot when I am there and didn't appreciate her comments. It is good to be home. We were thinking about going for a second visit later in the summer, but now I am happy to stay home. I am starting my new job next week (thought I would be this week, but I would have to drive over an hour each way everyday for training. I am happy to wait a week to drive a much shorter distance for my training shifts.) getting excited about my new job. It is a kids clothing company here in Canada, and I gave all my baby stuff away... So thinking the staff discount will come in handy to gather some more items once we know the sex of the baby. Had my first bit of morning sickness today that went beyond nausea. I am guessing this is a good thing, but at the same time not fun.
 
Hi everyone, hope you all had a good weekend. Just thought to say hello and send :hugs: to everyone.
 
Hey ladies, how's everybody doing? I spent Friday night at the ER with a friend (same friend I took to the ER last weekend), spent half of Saturday sleeping, and then today took care of Muffin and DH b/c DH had a baaaad migraine and his ankle's acting up and his back hurts. His ankle surgery got rescheduled to the end of the month, yay... I had a phone interview with Southwest Airlines on Saturday and have an in-person interview on Thursday, for a position as a Customer Representative at their call center at the air port. Hoping that goes well, b/c I'd really like to get this job, but I trust God to take care of it. Other than that, just trucking along and temping. Not bothering with OPK's this month after last month's roller coaster. LOL
 
good afternoon everyone:hugs:

angela glad you had a good vacation

cornbread i hope your hubby and muffin feel better and all works out with the job

hope all is well with everyone and you all have a blessed day
 
Hi everyone,

Its been a while so have been catching up on everyone's news! Happy Belated Birthday to Willb and terangela - it is my birthday tomorrow, what a great month July is :-)

AFM, got a BFN yesterday so no birthday BFP for me I'm afraid. Although no AF yet so guess I'm not completely out yet. I've been pretty chilled out this month, so was surprised to feel quite tearful at the BFN this morning. Please pray for strength for me when AF finally arrives.

Sending lots of prayers through cyberspace to you all xxx

Lara-praying peace over you dear and Happy Birthday

willb-glad you got to share your news finally!! Can't wait til that is me someday! :hugs:

Mrskc, deb, dahlia, cheerios, Isi, and everyone else. . hope you are all doing well!! Keeping you in my prayers!

Sorry to keep it short, just wanted to pop in say hello. Blessings on you all! :hugs:
 
Ladies I really need your prayers. DH and I are having communication issues and it seems like when we do nothing is resolved and Im quite tired of it. Im calling our pre-marriage counselor tomorrow for our first marriage counseling session, because I cant live like this. DH is insecure and I cant stand it. I dont know if the distance of me visiting my family has him nuts or his upbringing but I cant deal with it. So I will not bare this stress alone. Im giving it to God and to our counselor. I have a laundry list of things I need to discuss. Please (really)pray that we start seeing eye to eye and resolving our issues. Im just so sad and really thinking negative thoughts about him, and I dont want to. I feel like running away and never coming back:nope:. I know this is the enemy(devil). He loves division in marriages and families but I just dont want to let him win:cry:.

Thanks!:hugs:
 
Really praying for you and hubby Mrskcbrown, praying for forgiveness and acceptance on both sides. And that God will really draw you together and give you a renewed love and strength in your relationship. You need to feel loved and secure, especially as you are pregnant.

However, it is difficult to get perspective sometimes when you are apart - I know when I am away from DH that we are not good at communicating over the phone. So while you are away from him I would give it all to God in prayer, and then sit down and have an honest chat with him when you get home.

Praying for you hun.

AFM
I would also appreciate prayers please regarding my job. I am a nurse but I work for a commercial company, my role is supposed to be purely clinical but now they are pushing me to do more of a sales role - which really isn't me. My manager e-mailed me this morning saying that I need to be more proactive in a sales role otherwise I will be under performance review. I feel really stressed about this, as I don't know what they want from me. I would look for another job but the maternity package is amazing. Please pray that I can rise to the challenge and find ways to still be myself, whilst also helping to develop the sales. Also pray that I find a peace in this, as I know being stressed won't help me in ttc - my AF is already late with no BFN, and sure this is down to my stress levels.

Thanks ladies x
 
MrsKC - praying for you and hubby and hoping that your counselling will help you both. It's good that you're getting help before it gets out of control. Keep looking after yourself :hugs:

Lara - It's awful when you are having problems at work as it is such a big part of your life. I pray that God helps you to find a happy medium and takes your stress away :hugs:

xx
 
I got a phone call today from the midwife and my appt is Thursday at 2:45 :happydance:

Hi Lara glad to see you back around. Thanks for the bday wish and I pray your birthday is a blessed one. I hope everything works out with your job :hugs:

rdy2b I too can not wait til the day you get your bfp - myself and heaven will rejoice

mrskc :hugs: you have to leave that in God's hands you guys have come this far and been through so much you must try to work it out before giving in

Deb :hugs: hope your doing well

I love you, I always have - God
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you
Jeremiah 29:11
 
DH has come to his senses a bit.:haha: But truly, I prayed and just said God you have to work this out, and He did like He always does. Just praying for better communication on both ends. Thanks ladies for all your support:hugs: and prayers through my rants, hope Im not getting on your nerves.
I hope everyone is doing great. Praying for you Lara. Everything will be well.

@willbeamom: Thats awesome on your appt! I know all will be great!
 
Lara- Happy Birthday! I hope you can find peace with the sales in your position. I hope God gives you guidance how to approach who you need to in a manner where you feel like yourself.

MrsKC- I pray that you two can continue to work on communication. I know my DH and I have more communication issues when I am PG. I am tired and he is too and then when we are tired we get short with each other. Our very first fight was when I was 13 weeks PG with our first. We had been married over 2 1/2 years almost 3 years and that was our first fight. It was over something stupid too. I am fearing it happening again those first few months after the baby is born when we are both tired from the baby waking us up. I'll be praying for you two. I know I wish marriage was all lollipops and rainbows, too bad reality gets in the way at times.

Rdy- I am really hoping the drugs work for your DH and we see your BFP faster than fast. My heart hurts for those that have been trying long periods of time like yourself. It is tough and unfortunately those who haven't gone through it don't really understand how it hurts and how much you long for it. I have a friend who just announced she is PG and she got PG on her first month off birth control. I don't get it? I really don't know why God allows some to get PG so easily and others to have to wait so long.

Willb-Glad your appointment is coming soon! That must feel good.

I hope everyone else is having a good day.

AFM- I had my dating u/s today. So exciting. There is only one in there (God is good), with a heart beat and measuring right on track for 8 weeks. It felt like a relief to see the little flicker on the screen. I am feeling exhausted and having to wait for the kids bed time to go to bed seems like a chore. Then to have no naps during the day is feeling like torture. Anyway I am having a hard time with the exhaustion so I am hoping the morning sickness remains just nausea so I don't have to start taking diclectin and feel even more tired. I start training for my new job on Tuesday next week and I am excited about that. Only nervous about feeling tired and nauseous on the job.
 
mrskc that is great news of you and hubby :hugs: keep praying

angela congrats on your lil one doing well in there God is good! I hope you find a way to get rest. Good luck when you start the new job - remember your strength comes from the Lord.

Hope everyone has a blessed day :hugs:

Do you know what happens when you pray to me? I hear you. - God
I will hearken unto you
Jeremiah 29:12
 
Congrats Angela :thumbup:

Mrskc....thank God all is well now. The important thing is to keep praying. Wishing you guys all the best!!!
 
Hello ladies :wave:
I have been a crazy woman cleaning lol :laundry::dishes::iron:
I just realized we have lived here for nearly 2 months and I still have loads on unpacking to do! :dohh: def need to get them done soon! Isaiah could be here in as little as 3 weeks! :shock:
Been logging into BnB to keep up with everyone though :)

I had an emotional (but good) church service on Sunday.
I fell on my knees in tears...only they were good tears! Usually when I cry out like that it's bc something needs fixed or isn't going right, but this time was very different. It was as if Jesus was sitting there next to my husband and I. The dh asked what was wrong...at the time I didn't know how to answer :dohh: Nothing! I said, I was just on my knees with tears dripping down my face bc I was in owe of how wonderful and great our Lord is. I was crying out bc of how very thankful I am- I am overjoyed by what the Lord has done in my life. My cup runneth over.

Willb- so glad you got your appointment!

Mrskcbrown- I love your profile pic :D glad the Lord worked everything out :hugs: I know I'm a day early but congratz on 9 weeks! :yipee:

Terangela- what great news sweetie! What a wonderful God we have! Congrats on the new job :) praying that you find strength in your day and rest in your nights.


Everyone else, hope you're having a great week and finding happiness and strength in God :friends:


Last night we had our birth center tour. Was a little disappointed that we didn't get to see the water birth room (I'm planning on a water birth-for now anyways lol) but it was for a good cause as a sweet baby was born in there yesterday :cloud9:
I am so grateful that the Lord has brought us here! It's a very active birth center and that's what we wanted, especially going all natural. I just can't get over how different labor and delivery is here as opposed to Pennsylvania! Thank God!
 
glad to hear everything is going great for everyone :hugs: found out a friend of mine from training just died in afghanistan on 12 july. may his family and friends be in your prayers. rip nathaniel garvin. his birthday was today as well.

:hugs: I'm so sorry sweetie :flow:
We are always here for you :hug:
 
Oh Nevertogether Im so sorry to hear that. Im praying for his family and all of the members of the armed forces. Its so wonderful what you all do for this country. I thank God for you all and will thank God for the time your friend had on this earth.:hugs:

@Guppy: I get like that too at church, where I just cry because to me God is so majestic, when I think about Jesus and all that He has done for me/us my soul cries out hallelujah. I praise God for restoration in marriage and I feel with DH being a firm believer it helps to overcome the trials of marriage much more quickly. Also knowing that He seeks God on a daily basis is very positive.
Yes 9 weeks tomorrow, wow, im so blessed!

@willbe: Thanks for always remaining so positive.

We have a scan next weds and I cant wait. Its my last appointment at my reproductive endocrinologist as she is releasing me fully into the care of my obstetrician. She has been a great help and I like her a lot but I surely hope that we dont have to come her way again and that God blesses us with another baby just as naturally as he did this one:cloud9:. Hope everyone is having a wonderful, summer day!:hugs:
