Ladies (and anyone else who is in fear) please don't be scared of having a miscarriage or any other pregnancy problems. Just trust and have faith in the Lord and pray everyday pleading the blood of Jesus over your babies & yourselves and the almighty God will see you all thru this journey safe and sound. Please read this bible verse and claim it for yourselves daily in Jesus name! Exodus 23:25-26 NIV which says:
“Worship the Lord your God, and his blessing will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness from among you, and none will miscarry or be barren in your land. I will give you a full life span.”

I think its a good idea to be aware that there are many, diverse individuals on this birth month board.

The talk of Trust in Jesus etc. is essentially telling others what they should do. That's really not respectful. When you say, "if it doesn't apply to you then keep moving" you are essentially advocating that anyone who has trouble with the sentiments expressed be censored. That's not fair at all. Do you see where I'm coming from? @DanniG79

So, I'm with @PrimRoseMama on this one. I didnt originally say everything I wanted to because I didn't want to start something, but I'm not going to keep moving and censoring my own thoughts and beliefs because they're different than OPs. That's not how discussions work.

However, that post was still deeply upsetting. I think you can let people know how you deal with fear without making it sound like people who lose their babies didn't pray enough. And while people who are part of a community should feel safe to express themselves, we should also feel safe from seeing things that will be very upsetting. That's why people often posts trigger warnings and such. And it's understandable that not everyone would be comforted by a post like that.
Talking about your relationship with your deity of choice is not offensive, great, and encouraged.
Attempting to dictate the relationship that others should have with a deity of your choice, especially when those others are strangers and you know nothing about their religious/cultural/spiritual leanings is offensive and gauche. Don't do it in polite society.

However, if you don't like what we have to say about it, feel free to "keep it moving."
Your post introduces a few logical issues:
- In your own words, the people who agree with an opinion are free to express this opinion, but the people who disagree with it should move along. If your logic was self-applicable, why haven't you moved along instead of adding your two cents just now? What puts you outside of the scope of your own assertions?
- Your place in your life/spiritual journey/whatever does not make you the arbiter of people's thoughts and reactions. You don't determine what offends others, or which degree of offence is acceptable. The world at large is not filtered through your specific sensibilities.
- You have no control over the reactions of others. Self-aggrandizing claims don't magically grant you this control
- Knowingly offending someone, then trying to silence or diminish their response through an attack on their character is extremely bad form. An ad hominem argument is a logical fallacy to begin with, plus you have no inkling of the character traits of the people with whom you are interacting.
Honestly, it would be nice if you took your own advice, but of course that's entirely up to you.Lilo and Stitch (2002)
I'm an athiest woman who has also lost a child. I have no problem with people saying "they'll pray for me" and whatnot. Doesn't make ME feel better, but hey, knock yourself out. What was posted didn't offend me, but like was previously posted, it was upsetting.
And another thing... I'm so sick of people who are 'fed up with people needing to be politically correct', or as @DanniG79 said, are "too easily offended". Yes, we all have freedom of speech and opinions, but there's a little something I like to call KINDNESS... or how about compassion? If something might be upsetting, be prepared for people to use THEIR freedom of speech. Why should we be shrinking violets because it doesn't fall in line with your beliefs? If a group of people is saying something is upsetting, why argue with them that it isn't? Let's look at it from a different point of view: is kindness and compassion really that difficult that people need to complain about political correctness? Is it THAT hard to look at things from someone else's standpoint? Theoretically speaking.

Pertaining to @DarthFuriosa
"The world is not filtered through my sensibilities"...If that were true then we wouldn't have blatant prejudice/racism/discrimination. You may want to rethink that statement.
Knowlingly offending someone...Who was knowingly offended? I'm not offended. Are you? Perhaps you should take my advice. Lol.
As @DarthFuriosa said, feel free to take your own advice and keep moving along.

Except you feel the need to internet police us by telling us to hush-up if we don't like something? How is that not letting strangers have any power over you? I don't feel that it is reasonable for you to pass judgment on how others should feel about anything . I'm not offended by the Bible-pep-talk. It doesn't offend me. It has the power to hurt people. It does. Full stop.
Whether or not you believe it should really doesn't matter if it hurts someone. I don't think that people should hate brussel sprouts, but you know, some people DO hate them and feel revulsion for them. I don't tell them to suck it up and eat all the brussel sprouts because that's what adults do. See what I'm saying?
I'm not sure why you want us to suck it up and stop marking the potentially hurtful word choices here, but you are free to tell us what to do with our feelings? This board is a community made up of lots of people with feelings just as valid as yours. Please, try to be more compassionate. Jesus would want you to, just sayin'.
