| I would LOVE to have a few children... but because my pregnancies are always so difficult and put my life at risk, I don't think having more is going to be an option after this one... I never thought I'd say this, as I come from a family of 10 children and always wanted 4 with the option of 5.. But... Our family is now complete. However, saying that, it still saddens me that my choice of having more children is not really a choice I have. My health doesn't reflect my desires.. and it would be so unfair on the child/ren that I already have. ~MotherHearted | |||||||||||
We have had to make the same decision for the same reasons. In fact this fourth wasn't even in our plan. (So you never know what God will throw atcha! ;)
ReplyDeletePraying for big healthy babies for both of us!!!:)
I know what you mean! We aren't sure if we are going to do anything drastic, at this stage- but some form of birth control will have to be put in place for at least half a dozen years or more.
ReplyDeleteChildren are a gift from God. I am so grateful for the 2 HE has given us. But my body just can't take any more.. now, at least.
If God healed me and I was able to ENJOY my pregnancies.. without risking my life and not being able to be there for the children that I already do have.. then by all means, I'll have another!
And definitely praying for the same.. especially for you, dear girl. Now REST!!
