Hi Moms~
We have another appt. with a surgeon tomorrow who is with the PPVI.
Please keep us in prayer as so much confusion is surrounding us right now as we discern where/when/how/who will be performing surgery on me.
As the surgery concerns our fertility, we are obviously very concerned about making the *right* choice, and probably putting a gross amount of pressure on ourselves.
Also, please pray for my dd and ds. They want to know when the baby will come back to my tummy...and they are having a hard time understanding why their friends' mommies have little babies or babies in their tummies...and I don't. Being in a Catholic, home schooling circle, people have babies all the time.
Several weeks ago, a friend of dd's was visiting. She is 1/7. She came in and immediately asked my dd why she only had 1 brother.
My insightful 4yo at the time responded with, "I guess that is how God made our family."
Though insightful, she had a tearful conversation with me yesterday, and it pains me to not be able to give my children the siblings they so desperately desire.
Thank you all for your continued prayers!! Especially for our appt. tomorrow. I just want to have peace with a decision, and we have none...with anything right now.
Thank you all!!

I'm praying, Maggie...please be gentle with yourself. You are doing your very best. I know it's hardest to help your children understand. May Our Lord comfort you at this stressful time...

God bless her...and your whole family. We *know* this pain. It is a particular suffering...and one that God graciously gives the needed grace to endure.
Maggie, I'm praying for you mightily and I'll ask my 5yo to pray in particular for your children .
Love,

Ditto to Angie. I know this pain, and praying especially for you. I do think that going to PVI will help assure you that they wouldn't do something unnecessary.
