Hi all! Im am now 10 Bright Stars -formally 8 Wonders. Had to add a few kids!

Anyway, could you please keep baby Joseph and I in your prayers? I am scheduled for a c-section March 2nd at 7:30 a.m. I have to have a c-section this go round and am considered high risk due to problems during the last birth (partial abruption) and this is my third c-section. (also I conceived within 5 months of the last c-section.) So long story short, they are banking my blood type and told me to be prepared for possible hemorraging which would require a hysterectomy to stop. I have been monitored each week by ultrasound for several months now, and at this point in time, there is no indication that something will occur, but they won't know until during the c-section. I have to admit I am filled with an overwhelming anxiety whenever I picture myself there, which I am trying NOT to do! Also, I think I am still a little freaked out with all that went on during Willy's birth, and that is not helping me feel calm about it. I would just feel much more secure if I knew you all were praying for us both and for all the children at home that they will be safe as we juggle family babysitting etc.

Thank you!!!

Praying for you and baby Joseph, especially that God's unsurpassed peace will fill your heart on that operating table. BTDT (seven times!)..and I am sure it was the prayers of dear friends that obtained for me a totally unexpected sense of peace as I waited for the surgery to begin.
