• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

My husband and I were trying to get pregnant and it took us one month to succeed. I took a home pregnancy test on March 6th, 2008 and it was positive. We got so excited. So much emotions went through me. I was so happy.
We told our family and friends that we are pregnant and they were all so excited for us.Especially parents, since they will have another grand child. I prayed about the baby, so it will be born, be healthy, grow up to be a true Christian.
The whole time I felt very different. I was very bloated and had a disgusting feeling but I didn't tell anyone except my husband. I sensed something was wrong.
On March 10th at night I went to the bathroom and noticed there was a little bit of blood. I got so scared.
We went to ER and they told me I had a very early miscarriage. It was very very hard to hear the doctor say that. I started to cry and my husband said: "If it happened, than it was supposed to happen."
Telling everyone that I miscarried was hard too. But everyone was so nice and they helped me a lot, calmed me down. Especially my husband, he is a treasure. I know that he is devastated but he is trying very hard to help me and he did. My love for him grows more and more.
The thing that really shocked me was that this whole thing brought me closer to God. I thought I will be so angry and turn away from God.
But I know there is a reason for this. I know one day I will find out what it is.
God gives, and God might take it away.

Right now I am reading Job. God gave him great children and wealth and he was happy and than he took everything away from him and he still had faith in God. And his faith grew more.
For all the women out there who had a miscarriage, trust God. He knows whats best for you. One day we will figure out the reason of our suffering.

Thank you for being so open and sharing about your experiences. I am sorry for the pain but it is so amazing how God can draw us to him in these times and how our faith can grow.

You have a really healthy attitude and your faith is inspirational.
You know what, i'm going through a hard time but my faith has grown - and i feel so alone with those feelings - so thank you for sharing this - i really needed to read it tonight.

Hi, welcome to Christian Forums! I'm so thankful that you've posted this encouraging message for our sisters who are struggling with a miscarriage.

My name is FaithfulWife and I'm glad you're here. This place can be big and confusing, so here are a few things that might help you:

Christian Forums has a newsletter, so to see what's happening around here and read all the latest news, come to The Forum Focus!

To get blessings, you can go to the Blessings Exchange forum. We play games and take quizzes to earn blessings! You can also get 100 blessings from me just for meeting one friend: FaithfulWife's Newbie Blessing Game!

To get a character, Click Here or go to the top of the page sort of in the middle, and click on [Character]. You will need to select a body, hair, eyes, lips, and eyebrows/facial hair. I personally chose NOT to have a beard!
We also have two forums for some free clothes: Armory Giveaway for Newbies and Free Clothes for Newbies.

Finally, you might want to look in the Life Stages forums to find a group that fits you. I'm in the Women's Discussion, Parenting, and Marriage Ministry, and there's a life stage there to fit YOU!

If you have any newbie questions you can give me a Private Message (PM) anytime.
