So many things we pray for will be a tragedy if they aren't answered ..... but here, there are two likely outcomes, both good: 1. TWO adorable babies to love! or 2. Oh phew only one baby means less work.<br /><br />Either way it's good. But I totally get being excited/scared/on ice over it .... because I am and it's not even my belly!Sheilahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10853868724554947854noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6378450001604002654.post-17813258768337638382014-04-17T10:07:55.342-04:002014-04-17T10:07:55.342-04:00I had 2 over 10 lbs babies and I was hovering arou...I had 2 over 10 lbs babies and I was hovering around 200lbs with both and your baby belly is bigger. I was much more large all over/wider. If that's just one he's in some type of different position than I've seen before. Oh by the way I didn't have much trouble birthing those babies. The 2nd was a home birth even and we did fine with the size.Becky D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/04221459621218600505noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6378450001604002654.post-27759809902259362372014-04-16T23:31:23.749-04:002014-04-16T23:31:23.749-04:00Dwija - thank you for sharing my link.

And I will keep praying for you, too! They don't get "used up" after all. It's good to remember others and their suffering, but even if ours seem like little things in comparison, it doesn't mean they aren't there. I am constantly trying to find the balance between keeping perspective and allowing myself to admit that yes, this is hard.

When one of your own children is upset about something that - in your wisdom and experience is not a big deal, doesn't your heart still soften toward them? I mean, yes, we want to give them perspective but we love them and guide them right where they are in life. I think our Heavenly Father looks at us with the same gentle spirit, caring very much for whatever it is that troubles us, regardless of how it compares to someone else's troubles. Our "worst thing" may not be much in the scheme of thing but it's still our worst. *hugs* And there are two babies in there.

I think God loves to hear our prayers both big and small. How about I pray for you and every other one of the prayer requests you listed? :) And I agree with Lisa, your haircut totally works with the preggo belly! I can't wait for Good Friday...and it might have a lot to do with the suspense of finding out if you have an extra baby in there!

You were couching your concerns in humor, which is not the same thing as asking for frivolous things. It's not like you were asking us to pray for your hair or a cracked nail. Besides, if no one ever asked for prayers, no one would get prayed for. And then where would we be?!
