Who Needs It?

I'm showing signs of early labor and expect to be having this baby in the next couple of days.  I'm offering up my labor for those struggling with family size, whether it's infertility that has kept their family from growing or super-fertility which has made it grow too large or too quickly. I've got hours of labor and lots of discomfort which will inevitably lead to many prayers, so who else needs them?

If I can offer up my labor for you, let me know.  I'll be taking a list to the hospital with me.

Thanks.

Thank you! Please pray that we will find the money and courage to have a vas-reversal! We would dearly love more children, and have regretted this decision for more than 9 years.

If you would send up some to help me with my PCOS/symptoms, I'd appreciate it...and I will be praying for an easy time of it for you....

oh, could you please pray for me. I am a family size of one (just me) and would like it to be two: me and my own DH (whoever he may be).

Also, I need a job too. I know, I am needy.

Thank you very much.

For my sister and my sister-in-law, who are both due next month with my very first nephews -- for safe deliveries and healthy mamas and babies.
Saying a prayer for you and baby girl as well!

Praying for you, that your labor is smooth and uneventful and your child arrives safely.

Please pray for me in my last six(ish) weeks of pregnancy, that I have the strength to keep up with all my responsibilities. Thank you for the prayers!!

Prayers for my younger sister who is having complications from an unwanted but necessary hysterectomy.

And I will be praying for you!!

Does singleness come under the "infertility" category? If so, could you please pray that I get married to a good man and start a family soon? Thanks so much!
You'll be in my prayers today as well. I hope your delivery goes as smoothly as possible.

My brother and sister-in-law that struggle with infertility.

My vocation.

My gradnpa who is in the hospital and has lost the will to live since my grandma died.

I will be praying for you!

I would appreciate if you could pray for me, too. I'm 8 months pregnant with my firstborn (after two miscarriages). I have gestational diabetes, and last week we found out my son has IUGR (he's smaller than he should be)and that he probably has a minor (not to me!)heart defect. Pray those reverse themselves, and I can make it to term, because I may have to be induced early.

And good luck to you!

Please pray for my continued healing as well as a good outcome from my second-look operation on the 11th. And lastly, that we will finally conceive after all of this!

JellyBelly said...

Thank you for your prayers! I will keep you in mine!

Please pray for my husband's conversion and that my son will also have an open mind towards our Faith.

I've been a lurker for a long time, but I was hoping you would be willing to pray for me as well. I'm struggling with infertility as well- 3 miscarriages, surgery, and going on 11 months of complications from one of the miscarriages. Thank you

If you could pray for me as well. I am trying to determine if my current bf is dh material. Thank you and I will pray that your labor goes as smoothly as possible!

I can't wait to read that you've had your precious little one! :) I'd love some prayer time, if I may. I found out yesterday that I'm pregnant with our fifth, and am still stunned. My fourth labour was really traumatic so I'm a little freaked out, already. I'm also going to be honest - I have four boys, and would looove a girl. It's just the way it is. Anyway. Happy labour prayers are going up for you and yours! xo

Pray for me! To be happy with a family of 3 or to have a healthy baby sooner rather than later! Also, for a friend, Brittany Burd who had a healthy baby but then nearly died from blood loss. Pray for her full recovery and for the ability to breastfeed. Thanks in advance, and be assured of my prayers for you and a healthy delivery!
