My "baby" sister is pregnant with her 4th baby in 6 years (this is a cool thing just because she is not even much of a practicing Christian, much less Catholic).....tomorrow she goes in for an ultrasound & amniocentesis......9am PST......to find out if her baby has trisomy 13 or 18.

She is ALSO worried....because she has not been feeling the baby move and just has cloud hanging over her.......she is afraid they will not even find a heart beat. She is 16-17 weeks. Her name is Jennifer Leslie

Not to mention another VERY pressing issue on her life......she feels a bit like NOTHING is in her control......many of us know that feeling.

Could you please pray for her, for me?

Thanks, friends!

Prayers for your sis'. I did not feel Kateri move until around twenty weeks. I know I was very stressed about it. Prayers happening.

Thank you, dear friends, for your prayers!

My poor sister has worried for three weeks about whether her baby had one of the trisomies (that are incompatible with life)......and today, the perinatalogist has assured her that her baby is after all, a healthy and normal looking babe. I am SO glad for her! The baby was SO perfect on the ultrasound.....much different attitude than three weeks ago.....that they did not even do the amnio!

She appreciates your prayers, as do I. Please keep her other stress in your prayers. Thank you!
