TTC Prayer Group - All Religions and Beliefs Welcome

[LoveSeel]

Just thought it would be nice to open up a prayer support group that welcomes everyone. If there is already a prayer group like this please send me the link and I would be happy to join that as well.

Share a bit of your story and we will all say a prayer for you. Also, keep us up to date so we may continue our prayers (and perhaps begin directing our prayers towards a baby too).

Thanks!

What a wonderful idea. I will definitely check back so I can say prayers for those TTC. I know how difficult this ride can be and willingly offer prayers to anyone who wants them. This is our first month TTC #3. Such a lovely thread.

 

[LoveSeel]

My story: TTC #1 for one year. Trouble ovulating, irregular cycles, and irregular bleeding. First cycle of Clomid, CD 17 and no ovulation yet. Praying to ovulate and conceive, praying for a safe pregnancy and a healthy baby, and praying for others who are ttc and may need my prayers.

 

[LoveSeel]

Please feel free to share your favorite prayers here too.

Again, I welcome all beliefs to this thread! Even if you do not consider yourself to be a religious person I welcome you and will pray for you.

Thanks!

 

[Luvmysunshine]

I'll say some prayers for you LoveSeel. I thought there would be more replies for prayers.

Can I join? We have been ttc for 17 months and I have had 2 mc in the past 4 months. I am on Clomid, but had the mc because of a blood clotting disorder. I am now taking baby aspirin every morning and for some reason my FS put me on progesterone everyday 1 gram in the mornings and I am now CD 29 and still no sign of ovulation so I have taken myself off of it. We have one child already and he will be 2 on the 16th. He is my world. Even if we never have another I thank God everyday for blessing me with DS. I have decided to put everything in Gods hands at this point as I know this is not in my timing but HIS. I have to tell you that has been a very difficult thing to do.

Welcome Angelria! Thank you for sharing your story. I am so sorry to hear about your losses. Even though what you're going through is difficult, it's great that you are still trusting in God. I will add you to my prayers. Keep us updated on how things are going for you too.

Hello LoveSeel, luvmysunshine and angelria. I'd love to join this group. I saw the title of the thread about prayer and it jumped out at me!
My story: been WTC for 2 years since I got married but DH wanted to wait and we needed to get finances in order. Been monitoring my cycles and taking preconception vitamins for 6 months and TTC for 3 months. My cycles were very irregular before taking the vitamins and they are more regular now, but after 3 ovulations, and taking my temp everyday, I still havent conceived. I'm praying for patience as it will be in God's timing but it doesn't make it any easier when I see AF arrive - as she did this morning. I'm feeling gutted.

I'll pray for all of you as I know how hard it can be emotionally. It's worse comparing to others situations, but it's hard not to

Welcome Hotchip. Thank you for sharing your story. I too feel gutted whenever AF comes around. We are only human, and even though we trust in God, we do not always see or understand the path we are on. I too should pray for patience on this journey. It sounds like you are doing what needs to be done (vitamins, ovulating...) so keep it up. I will add you to my prayers. Thanks for joining.

I'm not religious but i am more of a spiritual person. So hopefully that is ok

I am very early in the ttc journey. My af is hard work. This is only my 2nd period since stopping bcp in april and i am day 12 of af. It has been a shock to the system having a very logn and never ending af. I thought and panicked something was wrong with me, which is what brought me to the site. I found other women after coming off bcp have long af's. My doc isnt worried but that doesnt stop me worrying. I jsut want this af to stop and then be regular so i can ttc properly. Who knew this road would be so tough right from the beginning. i didnt realise how stressful waiting for normal af and cycles would be.

Keeping you all in my thoughts and i send positive baby dust to you all

 

[hotchip]

Thank you
I just checked out your journal too and it nearly brought me to tears as I can see how much of a struggle this has been for you *hugs*

Welcome MrsMadronin! Spiritual works for me. I have very eclectic beliefs myself.

I too had difficulty with my cycle after bcp and irregular bleeding, so I know how scary and confusing it can be. I had my period for 13 days straight one cycle last year. Best of luck and let us know how things go for you. I will add you to my prayers.

Thank you I'm wiccan/pagan/witch as i take from all what is best for me as they are all similar but different as well. I don't fit in one more than the other

It is a scary and confusing time. I didn't expect it if i am honest. I almost convinced myself it would be normal right away so i brought the emotions i feel right now on myself. But i will go with the flow and when this af finishes, hopefully soon, then i will relax as best as i can

Saying prayers for all you ladies. It took 2 years to conceive our first son so I am acutely aware of how this journey can feel. I remember very vividly how each month of failure felt. So I will gladly pray for anyone who wants the prayers. Women are willing to try all kinds of crazy things to get pregnant (literally wild things) so why not add prayers to the list. I pray that each of you are brought peace through this journey. That you feel peace within yourselves and take a little bit of insight from each month it doesn't happen until the day you wake to find a BFP. I pray that each of you gets what your hearts long for and trust that wonderful things are in store.

Hi all,

DH and I are ttc #1. I came off birth control April of 2011 after being on it 10yrs(I don't get AF- never have---so I knew along time ago I would maybe have issues but of course you don't realize the magnitude till u are ttc and it seems everyone around you is getting pregnant. we officially started trying(I was taking temp etc) in July. December we went to a specialist. All oral meds ie: Clomid didn't effect my ovaries at all. I am now on injections past couple months. Follicles are responding BUT still haven't been fcen the injection to make me ovulate b/c dear husband and I wanted to conceive semi natural but it was too high risk for multiples. So we r are now gonna try IuI but again the doses of Injectibles have to be monitored carefully because we only want 1 or 2 follicles to grow...unfortunately there's always been 4 or so.

Prayer for 1 or 2 follicles to grow for me I will also keep you in my prayers. I pray every morning for a blessing.

I need to join this thread.
Dh and I have been NTNP/TTC for 2 years and TTC for over a YR
I have hypothyroidism and a slew of other problems, PCOS, endo, overwight you name it lol

Anyhoo here's my story;

I have been away from the church for quite some time and randomly the sunday before last Dh randomly asked if I wanted to go to church with him (he never goes ever and he believes in God but doesn't belong to any church) I hadn't been in months and jumped at the chance to go together (again, never has happened in the 4 years we've been together!!) The whole mass was about conception and there were little children EVERYWHERE!!! It was really strange. I had this spiritual awakening, if you will, and many weird things started happening. I met a woman the next day randomly at the grocery store and we ended talking for an hour. She told me I was going to have a baby girl and to give her the name Mary. I was crying at this point (it had been a very emotional conversation) and said, Ok. She said I could just do it as a middle name and told her Ok. I told my mom about it and she thought it was beautiful. She wanted to guess what the first name would be (I've had this picked out for 1 and a half years now since my friend got pregnant with her 5th and we were going to adopt the baby, later that fell through) She got it on the very first guess "Brie" short for Brielle. She said she had never even heard of that name before and it just came out of her mouth because she said it sounded right. So, I told dh about it so that's settled lol. We hadn't bd'd in a while cause dh said I was pressuring him and then that night we made love and it wasn't about getting pregnant, it was about loving each other. Well the very next day my temp plummetted and I thought OMG am I going to O??? Well my temp did go up but I couldn't see a shift. I was upset for a little bit because I thought I was going to get pregnant and then didn't O. Well today my temp skyrocketed. I seriously think it was a slow rise ladies. Today I had twinges in my right and left sides. Idk but I still have this feeling. Two days ago, dh and I went to church again and the whole mass was about healing. I was praying the whole time that God would heal me and my infertility. I'm sure what's going to happen ladies but for the first time in 3 years of stress, anxiety, and miscarriages, I'm giving it to God and relaxing. My little Brielle is on her way and when she gets here, me and daddy will be awaiting her with open arms.

I want to pray for anyone struggling with ttc or ltttc, infertility, rpl, adoption worries. I would love some prayers too ladies.

 

[Luvmysunshine]

Mindy your story gave me chills. Just beautiful. I have said some prayers for you tonight and will continue to do so. Keep trusting. What a lovely story.

 

[mindyb85]

Thank you so much luvmysunshine!!! We will see what happens in about a week. Fx'd crossed. But even if it doesn't happen this month I know it will!!!!

I'll be praying that your little girl gets here soon too!

DH and I are trying to conceive our first baby to bring home. My first daughter, Taylor, I had to be induced at 27 weeks because she had died. I became pregnant 3 months later, but that ended in a MMC a month ago. We're trying again, but don't think I've ovulated yet as my temp is all over the place (I had plenty of other signs though).
