Hey girls,

I'm putting this prayer request here because it's more of a female thing. In 1995 I had a kidney transplant. The doctors told me that when I got married I could still plan on having kids. Now for the past 7 years I have been going to a different dr. and she does not recommend I get pregnant. There are risks involved. I know my husband and I can always adopt, but ever since I was a little girl I have always wanted to be pregnant and have kids.

When girls were planning what their careers would be in school, I just wanted to get married and have lots of kids, that was my plan! LOL So the desire and dream is still in my heart. I know giving birth to "lots of kids" is unrealistic right now. But I don't feel one baby is unreasonable or even two, with God's hand of protection over me I know I will be fine. Having said that though, I can't take matters into my own hands. I have to know I have God's Will. I always pray for Him to intervene and cause the contraception break.


That is exactly what happened this past Tuesday. :thumb
I'm hoping that it broke at the right time in my cycle and that it's all God's Will. I know it's very unlikely but I have to admit for a few days my hopes were high!

I also feel like I have a promise from God, a good Christian woman at a prayer meeting felt like the Lord gave her this Psalm 128 for me. This woman had no idea how much I want kids or that the doctors don't recommend it. But God knows my heart!

So here's my prayer request:Please pray that God will help me to know His Will, if it's okay for me to get pregnant and when. Thanks so much for reading this. :hug

Praying. You sound a lot like I was. Growing up all I wanted to be was a wife and mother.

Hubby and I were married for less than a year when we decided to have a baby. 8 years later when the last treatment failed (we said it was the last) I was crying and hubby asked me. " What do you want? Do you want to get pregnant or do you want to be a mom" I said "I just want to be a mom" so we applied for adoption. We adopted our first baby a year later our second 2 years later and our 3rd 1 year after the second.

I understand what you are going through. I Prayed Psalm 113:9 and HE did keep that promise to me.....

Prayers for you. Praying that God shows you His will and the road to take. I feel that some way God is leading me to minister to the barren. It is not an easy road to walk down. But God is faithful.

Thanks for the prayers!

I'm pretty sure I can "get pregnant", I haven't ever tried though, the women in my family seem to be very fertile. It's just I need to know God will be there each step of the way protecting the baby, me, and my kidney.

There are a lot of women who have had kidney transplants and had babies. Everything went fine for them, the statistics show. So it's not like it's out of the question....I just need to hear from the Lord.

Thanks again for the prayers!!

My oldest is biological as is my youngest. My three in between are adopted. I love to tell people I cheated on my three middle boys. No stretch marks from them. LOL :aha
I love each one the same. My kids were given to me by our Lord. Whether I had them physically or they were given to me, they are mine all the same. Although I should say they are not mine, they are God's. He's just letting me borrow them and try to raise them as He knows best.:pray
On any given day, with four boys, I do realize God DOES have a sense of humor!!!:panic What am I saying...four boys and a teenage girl....God definately has a sense of humor!!!!!!!

Adoption is always a option and it's not a bad one....you do get to skip a lot of the drama of a pregnancy!! (morning sickness, swelling, backaches, and not to mention labor!). It's just if God is willing, I would really like to have a baby. It would be great if God would just answer me direct! Yes or no....kind of like a pregnancy test...1 line or two! LOL

Until I know, I'm holding on to Psalm 128!
