Hi everyone, The TTC Prayer Group is a support group utilizing the power of prayer. If you want to join we will assign you a prayer buddy and all you have to do is simply include that person in your prayers. Very simple-yet powerful!!! Feel free to search under TTC prayer group and check in at whatever time of day. If you have any concerns, special prayer requests, or need to reach us outside of the nest email us at suzannesteward69@yahoo.com or jplotz22@gmail.com.

If you want to join the group and be linked up with a prayer partner please provide the following info: your name, if you choose, your email address, your age, if you are TTC baby number 1, 2, etc, and how long you've been trying. I'll assign you a partner the following day and you can begin posting as soon as you ask to join. Thanks!
 
I am Suzanne, 39 years old, and my DH and I have been trying to have a baby for four years. In 2008, we had undertaken fertility treatments and had four IUIs ? all BFNs. We got our BFP after completing our first IVF cycle. Unfortunately, however, I had a missed miscarriage and a D&C on September 17. We will try IVF again in the summer.
 
I am Jessica; after TTC with PCOS for almost a year DH and I have been blessed with a miracle through IVF. Our daughter is due May 19^th, 2010.

Special Prayer Requests:

*Perry: They had their ultrasound yesterday and found a large subchorionic hematoma standing between baby and the uterine wall. Their LO is doing ok, but the hematoma may prevent the placenta from being able to attach and terminate the pregnancy. They have another ultrasound on Thursday, the doctor?s say it could go either way. Please pray God takes this in his hands and helps the placenta to attach, please pray that Baby P is healthy and growing. 

Llp:  She just ended her first injection cycle with AF. On the bright side though she gets to start another cycle again!  She has an ultrasound tomorrow (2/8), please pray for no cysts so they can start another cycle right away!

Shotzie: She went to the hospital on 2/15 because she thought she was in labor, but got sent home a few hours later. She is still finger-tip dilated but was told she?s in ?early labor?! Please pray that Shotzie will know when she?s in ?real? labor and pray for a quick, calm delivery!

KyleneD: They discovered blood in her son BJ? stool and are having him tested for food allergies. Her ?donated? his blood today (2/17) and should have the results next week.

*Zanymermaid: After the results of her mammogram, her ob/gyn wanted her to have a breast biopsy. It is scheduled for Tuesday (3/2). Please pray that the lump is benign and that everything is okay!

Borst-Plotz: A fellow nestie and friend of Borst-Plotz?s just had her 20 week ultrasound. Her friend found out that she is having a boy, but he has some serious health problems.
