Pregnancy bed rest heartburn has raised it’s viscious head. I’m a lover of all foods tex-mex, so naturally I recently dined upon Paula Deen’s taco soup, 2 McDonald’s breakfast burritos, and Fritos. I actually dipped my burritos in the taco soup for a sauce. Yea, I hear you moms out there, not smart. One … Continue reading
Praying for Your Unborn Twins, Week 24 Bed Rest
While on bed rest, I’ve been praying for our girls protection, health, and to be delivered into this world in the Lord’s timing.

My Husband the Hero
My husband Chris is my hero. For the last 9 days I’ve been on bed rest, Chris has been the most gracious husband and has served me like a queen. When the doc told me I’d have to incline at no higher than 45 degrees, he immediately purchased a recliner for me (courtesy of gift … Continue reading

Between Books: Prayer During Pregnancy
It’s been a struggle locating the perfect book on praying for your unborn baby, or babies rather. Sixteen weeks, 3 books, and many Amazon book reviews later, I’m still between books. My prayers however, can’t wait, so I’m compiling my notes in future segments called Praying for Your Unborn Twins. In the meantime, does anyone … Continue reading
Clomid Babies!
This is the week 7 sonogram we found out we were having twins. My husband Chris was speechless for about 10 minutes, and then he celebrated. To be honest, we had no expectations that it would work. My body was not producing enough estrogen to ovulate, so my doctor prescribed Clomid* to encourage my ovaries … Continue reading
