Please pray for me
Fri, 03/24/2006 - 21:28Topic: Corner Booth
Hi everyone, I hope you all are well. The reason for my post is I would like to ask everyone to remember me and my family in your prayers. After being diagnosed anovulatory, I do not ovulate on my own, we decided to try Intrauterine Insemination. I have been very blessed thus far regarding seizure activity. I still take Phenobarbital every night and I had my first IUI Monday. YIKES!! I am so excited and nervous at the same time. It's a good nervous though. I have dreamed of being a mommie for as long as I can remember and just knowing at this very moment our little miracle could be coming together inside me... it's Heaven. Listen to me, I don't even know if the IUI worked or not yet and I have to wait 2 whole weeks before I can take a pg test, this is going to be the longest 2 weeks of my life I believe. Anyway, I would greatly appreciate all of your prayers that I may have a safe/smooth pregnancy and of course a healthy baby. I'll share my result as soon as I get it, hopefully I'll be bringing everyone good/positive news.
Thanks,
Vanessa

Barbie,
Thank you for your prayers! I saw the pictures you posted of baby Sarah, she is beautiful. I am so happy to hear that both daughter and grand daughter are well. I take my pg test next Monday. I went today and had some blood work drawn, my RE checked my progesterone level. I just pray it is elevated as that is an indication of pending pregnancy but I'll probably take my hpt before I get today's lab results called to me. Anyway, thank you so much for your prayers and support and all my best to you and your family.
P.S. Spoil that baby as much as you can!!!!
Much thanks,
Vanessa

Vanessa, First of all, Do not think negativley after prayer, What ever you ask, Ask God in the name of Jesus and thank him as though it has already been given !!!! I know it is hard. Talk to God as though he is right there with you. Love by far is the greatest praise you can give. Tell God you love him and know that God loves you! Thank God for the little mircle that he has given you and believe that with all you'r heart and soul, And please, No negativity !!! Go to sleep saying this wake up saying this, God I Love You And You Love me, Thank You God For My Conception !!! And Believe That, It will happen!!!!! God BLESS YOU AND YOURS. YOU ARE IN MY PRAYERS.

Dear Vanessa, My prayers are coming your way !! My 23 year old daughter, who has had epilepsy since she was 9, just had a baby girl 3 weeks ago. She is truly the light of all of our lives, and I wish you all the best! Baby Sarah is living proof that prayers work !
