Having another baby - prayers appreciated


Jackofalltrades

So...oops.

After the first pregnancy scared the crap out of us, saw the wife hospitalized multiple times and resulted in a c-section at week 30 we knew there would be risks should she become pregnant again.

Welp, she's pregnant again. I'm excited as I always wanted two kids and my son desperately needs a sibling, but I'd be lying if I didn't admit to being worried about the wife's health and obviously that of the baby.

She's 8 weeks along right now; at this point in the first pregnancy she already had a subchorionic (sp?) bleed. If this week's upcoming ultra comes up clean I'll take that as a tremendous step in the right direction. That's one prayer request.

We have a much larger support system in place now, which is and has already been a huge blessing.

So, here I am happy as hell and scared shitless at the same time. So, I'm asking for prayers for a far less eventful pregnancy and that everyone comes out healthy at the end..hopefully 7 months from now.

Thanks in advance.

Me and the old lady were married for close to ten years before our first..and it was twin girls.Thirteen months later we had a son. She had her tubes tired after last kid so we couldn't have any more ,because she would be in danger if she had another,but mainly because three is enough. Understand what you are going through.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
