I completely agree. I do have some young friends who have found themselves pregnant and (usually) single; their boyfriends didn't have any interest in raising a child. I always try to do something nice for them ~ whether it's cooking a healthy meal (with plenty for leftovers!), sewing baby blankets, or offering to drive them to prenatal appointments. I am sure that other women here have many great suggestions on how best to serve such women! Ministering to single mothers is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the gift of life and help the baby get off to a good start. :-) Blessings, Luci http://atranquilheart.blogspot.com Thank you so much for this great post! :-)

Enthusiasm generally wanes after the 2nd child, especially if they're spaced close together. This has always bothered me.

I saw them at a pro-life booth at a fair once and I was able to show someone that THAT is what my 11 week old miscarried baby really looked like! I cannot believe how many people still believe babies are just blobs of unformed tissue until at least half-way through the pregnancy! This pregnancy has been my hardest yet and I've told people the truth. I AM in pain and discomfort and it is HARD. It is almost always followed with, "Oh, this must be your last then." It always fun to answer them, "No, it's not." I love those fetal models.
