My husband and I of 8 years (one 16 yr old stepdaughter who lives with us and a natural born 5 yr. old son) just found out that we are pregnant!!!:blush: I am 44 years old. This was not planned. I have been healthy and everything has been "regular" with no signs of the baby factory shutting down any time soon.
Please pray:That our child will be NORMAL, HEALTHY, beautiful/handsome, full of the Spirit of God and have a heart of joy and love. (much like we prayed for our son; which he is...thank the Lord...)
For me: I feel like Sarah; too old to have more children but I will not scoff and question the power of God in my life and His will for our lives. I have always been concerned about the health of babies born to older mothers; I was 38 when my son was born...physical, spiritual and mental and emotional strength and much FAITH!!!
For my husband: thanking God for his change in behavior since the last pregnancy and praying that he will be much more compassionate and understanding NOW...(he is happy about this knowing that God has control of all of this...it is marvelous to us.)
For our daughter and son: that they will welcome another sister (we think) or brother into their home.

thank you so much...i am joyfully at peace; expectantly (no pun intended) hopeful in faith and wait upon the Lord...

I have been praying that the Lord have ALL OF ME for the past few months...well...I would say that my prayer is beginning to be answered. I am prostate before His throne like I have NEVER been before...I am HIS...ALL OF ME...may the Lord Jesus be honored and glorified and may MANY come to know the living Savior through our lives as we trust in Him...day by day...

:prayer: thank you for praying!!!:hug:

Praise be to God for this unexpected blessing!! All Glory and Honor to you Father. Thank you that the entire family will welcome this baby with open and loving arms. Thank you for the healthy pregnancy and delivery!! Thank you for joining us in prayer. Thank you for all of your blessings. I am in agreement with each prayer posted, In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

“Again, I say to you, that if two of you are in agreement on earth about anything for which they will make a request, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. For where two or three come together in my name; there am I with them." Matthew 18:18-20.

That is beautiful. You may think you are too old but the Lord doesnt. God blesses us with our children. Praise God for another new life. I pray that all goes well for you sister. Please take care of yourself.
I am 42 and would be very happy to be pregnant again if and when the Lord blesses me with another child or not.
God bless you and your family.

May the Lord bless your pregnancy and give you a healthy, normal, loving child. May the doctors have wisdom and compassion as they help you. May this blessed child bring your family closer together.

canticum graduum levavi oculos meos in montes
unde veniet auxilium meum
auxilium meum a Domino factore caeli et terrae


I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills.
From whence cometh my help?
My help cometh from the LORD which made heaven and earth. (Psalm 121)

Thank you all...:hug:

Praises be to God and God alone...we did not plan nor did we even expect...My husband has already begun to go into this pregnancy with "renewed eyes and mind" of what this means and it does to his wife. I feel like Mary; Lord let it be unto thine handmaiden as Thy will...

Also...joeblowcanadian...I love the name Samuel...I wanted to name our 5 yr old Jacob Samuel.( one who GRABS his inheritance as Jacob grabbed the heel of Esau and one whom answers "speak Lord for Thy servant heareth: ..he has a great love of the Lord at such a young age...and strong headed too!!!

If a girl, my husband says that her name will be CHRISTyl. (and maybe Christyl Rose...then our last name rather than crystal, which is nice ) a derivative of Christ ...the Anointed of God. :clap:

I feel that this will be a very NEW time for me...I am already 'on my face' and at peace.
Thank you my dear brothers and sisters...
You are all such a blessing!

Father God, we give you praises today, yes, all glory, praise and honor goes to You. Thank you so much for blessing this couple with the gift of new life, may her pregnancy be blessed as was with Elizabeth, the baby growing physically strong, and well, within her womb. Keep her safe under the shadow of Your wings, during this time, Lord, In Jesus Name. Amen.

O Father, what a wonderful blessing You have given to our sister! What a beautiful treasure she holds. Lord, bless this child. Let there be nothing wrong with her, phyisically nor mentally, but let her continue to grow perfect inside her mother's womb. Lord, we rejoice over this new life, for as You form her, as You place inside her gifts, talents, and character, we know that this life, is a life, that is made in Your Image. Lord, let both mother and child, be healthy throughout this pregancy. Give to them Lord Father, from the abundance of Your Hand, filling them with You Lovingkindness every moment. Lord, our brother, also feel Your Hand, guiding him, and keeping him. Fill his mind with peace which goes beyond understanding, strength and wisdom. Let him be the father that You want him to be, the husband that You desire him to be. Lord God, bless these children, let them help their mother as she grows with this new life. Fill them this day with Your Goodness, let them also grow in strength and wisdom in Your Word, in Your Will, and Your Ways. In the Mighty name of Jesus Christ I pray, Amen

Father God, thank You for blessing this woman with child. I pray and ask of Your protection over her womb. Bless the child within, that it may grow normally, in mind, body, and spirit. Lord, bless mother and child and the family members with a healthy baby in due time, In Jesus Name, Amen
