Dear broken_wings,<P>Thank you so much for the congratulations! I'm at 9 weeks as of tomorrow. I am feeling pretty good all things considered. This is a high risk pregnancy for me and I will be monitored constantly by a specialist. I have a long history of miscarriages, as late as second trimester. Given my age [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com] I am scheduled for genetic testing. <P>My H is worried but ecstatic! He is like a young man again and he is being very attentive to my needs. But, my emotions are going crazy ... hence, the lunatic post to Gabi! <P>Isn't it crazy how everything in our lives is now somehow tied in with the OC? I keep thinking about her and wondering if my H and I have made the right decisions about her. I love children dearly and I do not hold anything against the OC. She is just a reminder of the most terrible point in my life -- when I was battling infertility, depressed out of my mind, and my marriage was hitting rock bottom.<P>My H keeps telling me that I should put it out of my mind -- he has made his choice -- he will support her financially but nothing else. But the Catholic girl inside me worries that I have not been able to find the forgiveness in my heart to heal this situation, although I have already forgiven my H for the mistake.<P>There I go again -- babbling. Anyway, thanks broken_wings for the thoughts and good wishes.<P>love,<BR>heavenly

congratulations heavenly on your pregnancy! my prayers that you will have a wonderful pregnancy, and that your baby will be healthy. and that little catholic girl in you has nothing to worry about. remember, you have nothing to feel guilty for. you need to think happy, positive thoughts, to keep you as stress-free as you can. like your H told you, he made his choice. you are a wonderful person, regardless of whether you accept OC or not. i know this to be true heavenly!! god loves you.<P>love, happy_girl

Heavenly...You're just full of surprises, among other things! Wow. You're knocked up! Congratulations! I am jealous but very, very happy for you and your husband.<P>Is it too soon to talk names? If it's a girl, Ruby Begonia and if it is a boy, something like "Mel" as in Gibson. Hahaha<P>This is truly a joyous occasion. I haven't been happy about anyone's pregnancy in almost three years until today...I must be healing.<P>Catnip =^^=

This is such sweet news! Congratulations! I have thought a lot about you lately & how a few weeks ago you where in such an emotional spot. Maybe the "hormones" were already kicking in back then. I am glad that you and your H are on track & have such a wonderful opportunity together. <P>Take care. Carolyn

Heavenly!!!!! congratulations. I am so happy for you. Take care, get rest, stay peaceful and let others do a bit for you. I remember how kind you were to me when we lost the adoption (just two weeks ago? Seems like a lifetime.)<P>Mrs. Job
