I think just the fact that you are listening to your promptings means that you are in tune with the holy ghost which means you are doing everything possible to be obedient and faithful. Even though you might feel you are not in the best overall state for it...body wise...mental wise...and other wise....Heavenly Father will help you out through everything, He is already doing so...by finding that insurance what a blessing.Bond Girl 007https://www.blogger.com/profile/14819235488397919461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21228919.post-15862397605438195102007-11-21T19:34:00.000-05:002007-11-21T19:34:00.000-05:00It is always such a big decision when you're famil...It is always such a big decision when you're family planning!

I always finish your posts feeling like I totally understand your feelings...what a gift you have.<BR/><BR/>Deciding to have another baby is a big decision, just like deciding to have a baby at all is. I think it's wonderful that you recognize that you're being prompted to do so. This means the Lord knows what's best for you and that you CAN handle it. Finding the advocacy group is another huge blessing and confirmation of this. Our lives are full of leaps of faith like this, but it always works out.

We just had baby number two using our hospital's financial aid program and it really saved us.(What we did sounds little different and not as cheap but they prorated all of our fees based on our annual income...)

That sounds like it will be just what you guys need. <BR/><BR/>I can imagine the difficult decisions and mindsets you are facing in deciding to have another child, as we have discussed before (: (stupid weight). But it sounds like you are getting "nudged along" on this one, so to speak. Gotta love those promptings.<BR/><BR/>Bella is going to be one cute older sister.<BR/><BR/>And yes..."baby hunger" does sound creepy. I've always kinda felt that way. Somehow, it always reminds me of this (make sure you have volume turned up): http://mickeyeatsbabies.ytmnd.com/Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10679356344019153638noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21228919.post-63465525432820963522007-11-20T13:20:00.000-05:002007-11-20T13:20:00.000-05:00Jessie,Wow. I love this post. You are amazing! Re...Jessie,<BR/>Wow. I love this post. You are amazing! Really. I can understand the "longer you wait the harder it gets" thing because we waited four years to get pregnant with our first and it just got harder & harder to let go of selfish things...however, I know Heavenly Father wanted this baby to come to us at the time he is coming. (Only about 60 some days left!)...I am so nervous about being a mom for various reasons, and the cost financially is huge. I am so naive and didn't realize that everything at the hospital is a separate bill!<BR/><BR/>I know you two will be blessed for heeding the Lord's promptings and not shutting the idea of having more children out. I agree with what Michelle said too. WW has a program that you can do while pregnant (I think) and that would help with the weight thing too, possibly. And, you are such a blessing to all you come in contact with, including Bella and Lola and you will only be a blessing to any future kids. <BR/><BR/>Keep us posted!<BR/>Love, KarliKarlihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11965609337796309791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21228919.post-80586463387731093562007-11-20T13:16:00.000-05:002007-11-20T13:16:00.000-05:00I seriously thought you were announcing something-...I seriously thought you were announcing something- I bet others will think the same thing! So funny.<BR/><BR/>The insurance "aid" is excellent- just what you need right now. You CAN do the two kid thing- Bella won't be the Bella she is now, much more independent and playing the big sister role. I had reservations about going from 1 to 2 for many of the same reasons, but knew that it was ultimately what we wanted and would be worth the sacrifice. Now it feels good to be complete and done with that part of my life- the bearing children part anyway:)<BR/><BR/>You are well on your way with institutionalization...don't think I have ever used one with 8-sheeshAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
