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.

I'm due in Sept. after two m/c in a row and the levels not being super-great, I'm a nervous wreck right now.
(if you're local and know me, please don't share yet, thanks)
please keep us in your prayers, and I'll be praying for all of you!
congrats!

We just found out we are expecting #7 in mid September. We are so, so excited !! We haven't told the other children or the rest of our family yet - we usually wait until after the 1st trimester.

We too are expecting #7 end of Aug. I am already having GD issues and just got diagnosed with a subchorionic hemorrhage after a mad dash to the ER Sunday. Dr gives us a 50% chance of not miscarrying again...very anxious here but trying not to be. Doing bedrest to see if it will help heal it. Will be offering my days for all of you here at the 4real boards

we'll be praying for you, Hollee, Lisa, Books, and all those who are experiencing anxiety during these first few months. I *think* I'm past the most worrisome part (have just past 16 weeks). I joked with my nurse yesterday that I'd like to rent a sonogram machine so that I can check this one's progress whenever I get nervous. "Our lives are in God's hands" is my current aspirative prayer. Easier to pray it than to let God take control, hey?

We just found out this morning that we're expecting #8!

Baby is due in October. We haven't told extended family yet, so if your local or on FB, please help us keep it quiet until we've had a chance to let everyone know in person.

Blessings,
