My prayers are with you as well :). Sometimes all you can do is give it to God. I am not trying to concieve but my hubby recently lost his job (at the end of Feb) and it's been hard but that is what we are doing right now leaving it up to God.
Again my prayers are with you!!! :D |

Sometimes God gives you exactly what you need. When I read your post today it mirrors me exactly and made me realize that I needed to confront my fear of this head on! We tried for 2 years (because of PCOS) to conceive our now 14 month old daughter. We too are beginning the process of trying again. The one thing that seems to help is I try to remember each day that God wants me to be happy. He has given me the desire for children and I know that desire is of pure heart. Remember that God is a loving God and if your desires are from him he will provide an outlet for these desires. While patience is not easy and His plan may not align with ours....it is a perfect plan. PCOS or not! |

Thanks so much~ I thought it would be great to hear support from even a stranger rather than my own family members, they tend to just ask... so? when are you having another??? like it's that easy :) I too will pray for you and your family, I'm so sorry hard times are upon you... this whole economy thing has jeopardized my husbands job... cutting his hours and for a while we weren't even sure if he'd keep working. Definitely scary... it's also been hard thinking about baby #2 in this time but we finally stopped and said OK... God has always.... ALWAYS provided and our faith has to endure and living in fear is not a way to live! So thanks again and I pray things start looking up for you and your family very soon :) |

It sounds like you have the right idea about "giving it to God" and prayers can't hurt. :)
Prayers being said for you and your husband.

Thank you so much it's much appreciated. What I try to do is Remember Mathew 6:25-27
Therefore I tell you do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? Look at the birs of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Who of you by worrying can add a single hourto his life?
This has really helped me get through those hard times. Yes we are going through a rough time but I still have joy in my life and I still know God is with us :D. Again my prayers are with you :D. |

Hi
My name is liz and i have two boys almost 9 years apart i wanted them close together . It took me four to five years to finally come to terms that i was lucky to have my older son jacob because i new some couples that could not have any and then God surprised us two years ago with a very health son named kristopher i wasalmost 45 when he was born so i would say get on with your life and try not to much think about it knowing God is in control |

I really appreciate every one sharing, and all your warm thoughts... and you all are also in my prayers. The power of prayer is an amazing thing. I cannot tell you how many times I have felt like I was only hanging by a thread in my life... and that thread was prayer and here I am today happy and SO SO thankful for all the blessings in my life. :) |

I know what you are going thru. I, too, have PCOS. We were Blessed with the twins after ttc 7 years. I left it in God's Hands, and when the time was right, he put a bunch of ladies in my path to get me to the right RE.
Now the twins are 4 years old, so continue to have Faith. Know that God is Faithful and He knows our Hearts, better than we do. If it is His will, you will conceive again...but you have to Believe it. Don't let your Faith wiggle at all, I know it is easier said than done, but try not to. Don't give the enemy room to spoil your joy and Blessing that is to come!
Take care, God Bless, Julie D

OK ladies..... positive test last Friday!!!! All I can say is WOW.... it happened so fast and really threw me off!! We have faced the possibility of so many changes very recently... possible move 2 and a half hours away from family.... that I was not ready to digest this with everything else swirling around in my worry full head... I had an anxiety attack and became riddled with fear. I am doing better but could use some prayer... so many women deal with anxiety I am learning more and more every day...I have given it to God before and have to know in my heart of hearts that only He can take away my fears and leave me with peace. I am currently searching for a devotional centered on "giving it all up to Him" and dealing with anxiety particularly... any suggestions would be helpful, thanks ladies... for all your prayers and support :) |

Woo hoo, congratulations!!!!!
I have a great devotional book. It's called: Jesus Calling Enjoying Peace in His Presence by Sarah Young. It is a daily devotional and helps me to start my day. :)
Another one is: The Secret Power of Speaking God's Word by Joyce Meyer. This one you look up what it is about, such as anxiety and worry and it gives different scriptures about the issue at hand. It's really good also.
Hope either or both of these helps. :)
CONGRATULATIONS again!!
