Anxiety, news, and a favor...

I have some severe anxiety lately...

Most of it has to do with the news....which is....we are having a baby! While we were in the hospital delivering Finley, we had some special experiences. One of which was the knowledge that even though she was an important part of our family she wasn't the completion of our family. We felt so strongly that there was another little one for us. We spent time at the temple and still felt like that was the right thing. Then we got pregnant in May and had a miscarriage in June. I was discouraged and thought that maybe I had been reading these impressions wrong. We spent more time at the temple and still felt like our family wasn't complete. So....here we are at almost 21 weeks with a new little one.

Now comes the favor. We have an important appointment on Monday. We are having our BIG ultrasound with a specialist from Maternal Fetal Medicine. I am terrified. This is the same ultrasound where we found out that our little girl didn't have a heartbeat. Would you mind adding an extra prayer for us? I know that none of this is in my hands and I will accept whatever the Lord has in store for us! Just pray that I can have some peace so Nate can have a wife who is not in need of medication!! I am sure he would appreciate it....and so would I!!!

Our prayers are with you and your family at this time! Our pregnancies have been TOO eventful, and our births TOO scary, and I know it's hard to stay strong. I hope you feel loved, comforted, and strong at this time and know we are praying for you and your baby!
