Sunday Prayer Requests - 1/8
vannilly

I thought it might be nice to start a thread where we could ask for thoughts and prayers from others for any difficult situations we may be facing. We can specifically keep those who've recently lost their LOs in our thoughts, but also feel free to post any other challenges you might be facing right now (heartbreak, financial hardship, illness or medical condition, family troubles, etc).
If you're not a religious person, you can still send positive thoughts and encouraging words their way. I will say some extra prayers for everyone!

Re: Sunday Prayer Requests - 1/8
Please say some prayers that I have a safe trip, everything goes smoothly, and I don't get sick!
I've mentioned it before, but I fell getting out of bed Thanksgiving morning. I tore my meniscus and my knee dislocated and relocated tearing 2 pieces of cartilage. I didn't know I was pregnant till a week later. The orthopedic surgeon had me do physical therapy twice a week for four weeks to improve strength and range of motion. I will need a minor surgery to remove the cartilage. I am pleased because per the physical therapist I have full range of motion back. I follow up with my orthopedic surgeon Tuesday. They told me that I can wait until the 2nd or 3rd trimester for surgery, but I'm so nervous about having surgery while pregnant. Part of me wants to wait till as close to the end as possible, but the other part of me knows that the bigger I get, the more weight is going to push down causing pain. Please pray that I make the right decision and that my baby stays safe.
@lyndshurt, thanks!

Would love continued prayers that I stop bleeding (almost there I think!!!) and that baby has a heartbeat and growth. Hopefully we will be able to see tomorrow or Tuesday.

4th ultrasound for me this Tuesday and I pray for another strong heart beat and growth for our lil McNugget!
@NYTino24 Thinking of you, hoping that you get the best news this week.
@SouthernMama15 OUCH!!! Sounds so painful. I'm sure your doctors will schedule you at a time that is best for you and safe for the baby.

Clearly we like to rush along at lightning speed...
@vannilly Good luck with your travels this week. I traveled overseas for Christmas and was terrified I'd be sick on the plane. Worst case you could blame being sick on flying and your coworkers wouldn't suspect a thing! Ginger ale is always good to settle your stomach too.
@SouthernMama15 Ow ow ow
@NYTino24 So glad your bleeding is almost gone! Fingers crossed for a great appointment this week.
@Mango517, praying your trip goes smoothly
And prayers for all the Mamas and babies on our board

Mine isn't baby related, but DH could really use some job vibes!
On the same note.... is there going to be a weekly hour of silence? I know when I was in June15, they did one hour every week to honor all of the lost babies and show respect to the mommas.
