I'm doing a lot of prayer requesting around here, lately, and I can't say how much the prayers that are offered for us buoy us up. You are a wonderful group of women and it such a privelege to be part of this group.

I came to you guys with a very similar request with our last baby, and I'm here again . We are days away from due date of baby #5 and I have a history of delivering babies who like to get their shoulders hung up. The two boys were both "real" shoulder dystocias that lasted for 3-4 minutes, born blue and limp. That said, after much prayer and deliberation, dh and I decided that a homebirth was still the best venue for us to welcome this new baby into our family with. So, we are coming to all of you powerful praying women and asking you to remember us in your prayers over the next few days. Pray that this baby comes without any complications, please. Oh yeah, my blood pressure has been creeping as well, so that is a concern as well. I haven't been able to rest as I'd like to this close to a birth with sick babies and appendectomies.....

Kathleen

I am SO excited for you, Kathleen!

I will take your intentions to Saint Anne and Saint Margaret. They have always been there for me in labor.

PS....I will pray you have home birth as beautiful as the last one I had......my most favorite delivery!
hmmmmm, oh, and a child much less difficult to raise as that one has been
