Hello, blogging friends. I didn't mean to worry anyone with my tweet yesterday. But I do need prayer. My family needs it. Last Sunday I found out I was expecting number two! We were beyond excited!! Thursday I started spotting and it turned to heavy bleeding Friday and then went back to light spotting. In my heart I fear the worst. I fear that we have lost this baby too. These things are never easy and this one has been especially hard on my husband. Tomorrow I will go to the doctor to find out for sure what is going on. I am trying not to get my hopes up but instead trusting in a sovereign God. This little one's life story has already been written and if that means only a few days or years we will still have a place in our heart for this one. Please be praying for peace for our family. I know so many of you are prayer warriors!!
And if you are a friend or family member and are finding out this way I am sorry! It's easier to get thoughts together and say it all at once here.
Thank you for your support. I will let you know what we find out tomorrow.
God is sustaining.... He is enough.

I am a sinner saved by grace! I love being a wife and absolutely adore my husband. My newest role as mother has been incredible! Before God blessed us with our little man we struggled with infertility and suffered a loss. To read about our loss click here. I am a professional photographer living out my dream one frame at a time.
Hubby
My husband is adventurous, loving, patient, funny, encouraging, forgiving, talented and my best friend. We met through a mutual friend at church. The fact that he could sing and play guitar was what caught my eye. But his personality and love for the Lord is what won my heart. Well that and his smile!
Little Man
Little man is our little blessing. He made is big debut on June 1, 2009. He is such a happy boy, who is very curious about the world around him. Which is a nice way of saying, he is into everything! We found out we were pregnant with him two days before we had our first infertility specialist appointment. God is good!
Cohen
Our second blessing, Cohen was born December 2, 2010. He and his brother are almost exactly 1 year 1/2 apart. We love watching his personality shine through and are blessed to have him in our family!
Mason
Mason is our third boy and the best surprise we've ever received! His big brothers love him to pieces. So far he is a laid back baby who is already sleeping through the night.
What's in my bag
You will be in my prayers. I will be praying for the best, and for God's peace and comfort no matter what.
ReplyDeleteOh Monica, I can honestly say that I do know what you're feeling. I know the dread that fills you when you see the spotting, yet the hope that your little one is okay. You are definitely in my prayers. We serve a God of miracles - cling to that as you pray for your newest little miracle! :)

ReplyDeleteMonica,
ReplyDeleteI am praying for you and your husband. I know the feeling of seeing blood and then finding out it is a miscarriage. Needless to say, any pregnancy after can make you feeling very nervous. I pray that God will keep your little one safe.

Many prayers and virtual hugs coming your way.
ReplyDeleteI will keep you in my prayers as well.
ReplyDeleteStay strong.
Monica,
ReplyDeletePraying peace over you today no matter the outcome. One of my favorite verses is coming to mind as I type, "I will not fear bad news for my heart is steadfast trusting in the Lord." Can't remember the chapter is Psalms, but the Lord knows. Trust Him today. Let me know how it turns out.
Prayer requests are never worrisome!
ReplyDeleteKeep on asking.
smooches,
Larie
Praying for you and for your family, Monica.

ReplyDeleteI keep thinking of you today...still praying
ReplyDeleteHey Monica,
ReplyDeleteYou visited my blog the other day, so I wanted to stop by yours. I'm so sorry for your loss, I sat with my sister-in-law in the ER this summer when she lost her second baby, then my sweet cousin lost her third to Trisomy 13 a few weeks ago. I have grieved so much for tiny family members in these past months, it must be so hard for you. You're right - God is ALWAYS good. I enjoyed finding your blog. Hugs!
