Shocking News.

SIL (Abe's sis) is pregnant with her third.

 

She just found out and told me this morning. She's going to tell her mom this evening. 

 

Hayden, her first son, will be six this October. Beau is 17 months. We're thinking she'll be due in mid-February. 

 

She was on the pill, taking it religiously (and properly) because they can't really afford another baby. Apparently, God has other plans for their family.

 

I'm just praying they'll have a healthy baby with limited complications. Her pregnancy with Beau was very hard on her. She actually had to have a blood transfusion the day after he was born. I just pray everything will work out with this one and she'll remain healthy. She's going to need the energy!

 

I'm excited but worried at the same time. I know they'll find a way to make it. Her husband is already working two jobs. She is staying home because she was only breaking even working full-time and paying for daycare. She's been babysitting for a while now but I wonder how she'll be able to, taking care of a newborn and a two-year-old?

I'll be praying for your SIL - for a H&H 9 months, and that their family is able to find a way to make things work.  Someone has a plan for them!

I hope that they can get things worked out and be able to enjoy the pregnancy and not worry about finances or her health!  And hopefully you are PG too so they can be the same age--fun!!

Wow - I'll be thinking of them and their family! I hope her health is ok and that they're able to enjoy this change of plans.

Before having a baby, I would have said, "Oh man, I'll keep her in my thoughts and prayers."  But, having a child is such an awesome blessing, so I'm sure they'll work out the financial end of it.  I hope she has an easy pregnancy this time around.
