Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Oh, Helen! I'm overjoyed for you!! You give much hope to this aging mama!!

And FYI......my midwife found no heartbeat when I was carrying Brayden. But on ultrasound, there his beautiful heart was...just pumping away! He'll be a year next month.

Congratulations!!
Yes, that morning sickness is reassuring. Ironic, huh?
FWIW, my morning sickness has never been as bad as it was with my first pregnancy.

Thanks for all the congratulations and holding me in prayer. I just realized that the Boards will be closed for Holy Week and I won't be able to tell you the outcome of my Monday appt.

If it's good news, I'll post at my blog.
Thanks again

I left this thread hanging...

I'm 13 weeks and things seem to be progressing normally.
Thanks for your prayers and good wishes.
