My friend Liz from this thread is having a lot of anxiety and worry about the baby lately. She noticed that her chest wasn't as tender and sore about 4:30 this morning and spent the rest of the morning crying because she thought it was a sign that the baby was gone. She could really use some prayers to get her through the next 5 weeks. Once she hits 12 weeks, I know she will breathe easier. If she does lose this child, she will need a lot of spiritual support to get her through it. Please pray for her! Thanks friends!

Update:
THE BABY WAVED AT HER!!!! She just had a sono and the baby is fine. They still don't know what is causing the bleeding or the cramping. Hopefully the doc can tell her that. Please pray for these issues to resolve and not be harmful to Liz or her child. The baby has a good strong heartbeat and looks perfect! She is measuring just as big as she should be for 9 weeks old. Thank you for your prayers! Keep 'em coming!!!

Praying! Her anxiety is understandable, but I hope she is able to find more peace by accepting that whatever happens, it is God's will.

I have been praying often for Liz, Charlotte. I will continue to remember her and ask our dear Lord to grant her peace.

I am praying so hard that this baby will continue to develop and Liz's pregnancy will be healthy.

Liz has an appointment today at 11:45AM. She started spotting this morning at 3 am and has continued to bleed and cramp. She is almost certain that she is miscarrying. Please pray for her!

You and me both Jennifer! I told Liz to convey to that sweet little one that we are going to have some words when he or she finally makes an appearance! No more scares!!!
