She truly is wanted and very much loved. We are so excited to having her here. Our entire, extended family is looking forward to her arrival. My only concern is my husband’s sister (his only sibling) she and I have never gotten along because of trouble she started during the time of our wedding. I need advice about her. She tells others that she…[Read more]

Having a GIRL!!!!!!!! We are elated! I am 26 weeks along and things are going great. I feel her wiggle and kick and she responds to her daddy’s voice now 🙂 BEYOND THRILLED!

P.S. Most of my family is under the impression that I’m having a boy 🙂

Thanks Kathy.

Everything had been going well up until yesterday. I started having a strange pain in my lower abdomen which I’ve had off and on throughout yesterday and today, with no spotting thankfully. I saw a new doctor today because mine is on vacation. This new doctor was amazing. Where as my doctor wasn’t very informative, this new doctor…[Read more]

Thanks Kathy,

Well, it has been an interesting two weeks. I’ve been mildly spotting off and on, but the baby seems to be hanging in there. I’m very hopeful and optimistic about the little bean. All I can do is take care of myself and get plenty of bed rest, which is what I’ve been doing. I had a dream this morning about a dear friend who passed…[Read more]

Hi embobeBreepsy, not sure why you posted that as a reply to my question…hmmmm… ❓

Thanks for your well wishes and insight, Kathy. I think this baby will definitely be a great source of not only motivation, but inspiration as well. We are beyond thrilled 🙂

Just found out, a couple of hours after first posting that I’m pregnant. Wow 🙂

* or is there something else that I should be pursuing?

Thank you so much, Candice. We have always said that we would adopt, regardless of whether or not we had biological children. However, not knowing why I’m having trouble conceiving is something that haunts me. I have been told by many doctors that I should have no trouble getting pregnant, but it’s not happening. I was wondering if you could…[Read more]

Candice, thank you so much for your very accurate insight. What you said is something that we strongly suspected, but needed confirmed. Though excited about the prospect of the in-laws assistance, we knew there would be a catch, a big catch, so we are not at all surprised by the information you offered us. Everything you said is very, very…[Read more]

Getting the house might still be an option, does anyone see anything regarding this situation?

UPDATE: Someone else made an offer on the house and it was accepted. It’s kinda disappointing, especially since my husband was so excited about it (I had never seen him that excited about anything) but I guess ultimately, it just wasn’t meant to be.

A couple last things if you don’t mind, Candice: is there a polite way to establish some type of (for lack of a better word) “ground rules” to avoid these potential problems (hurt feelings, etc), before we accept help with the house? I mean, can we stress that we are not keen on surprise visits beforehand and that we have our own ideas for the…[Read more]

Thank you Candice. I read one of your replies to someone and debated whether to ask you for your insight, but you beat me to it 🙂 Some of what you revealed, is what I’ve been suspecting. The unannounced visits and so on. I get a very strong sensation that it is my sister-in-law you are referring to when you mentioned some telling us what to do…[Read more]

SpiritualVortex,

Please help me heal emotionally from my past in order to be able to become pregnant. I have no idea where to begin and I feel as if I’ve been carrying this burden for so long that I do not know how to let go. My fear is that by letting go, I will be losing the memory of my daughter (and son, first miscarriage). My daughter has…[Read more]

Thank you so much for your insight, SpiritualVortex, I needed to hear that. I have suspected that it is I who is causing my own fertility issues. I know that I am a sensitive. I tend to take on or absorb what people are feeling, though at times I do not wish to do so. I am almost always stressed out and anxious and I really do not know how to…[Read more]

oh my name is Laura and my birthday is February 17, 1981.

P.S. I believe that I have a bit of underdeveloped psychic abilities myself and strongly feel that I will conceive again and will conceive twins, I guess the reason why I asked for help is because I’m becoming impatient, desperate and extremely saddened with every month of negative pregnancy tests. I slipped into a bout of serious depression when…[Read more]
