I am sharing on this wonderful topic this Saturday at a Women's Retreat - God's Grace is Sufficient for me as a Young Mommy. I have 3 children and they are all so different from one another. It was in the differences that I started to see my deep desperation for God's continual guidance, wisdom and grace. <br />What God is teaching you through this experience will minister to other Mom's who find themselves right where you are at.<br />2 Corinthians 1:3-5<br />"Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort, who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God. For as the sufferings of Christ abound in us, so our consolation also abounds through Christ."<br />May God be your comfort through this difficult release of a desire - a desire to nurse your precious Everly.<br />May God use you to minister to, and comfort, other Mommies that find themselves unable to nurse their precious baby.<br /><br />Blessings to you sister. <br />Janiene<br />http://bishopsfamilysite.blogspot.com/Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12288074376591086120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27767365.post-23662971543119633212012-02-25T15:19:50.013-06:002012-02-25T15:19:50.013-06:00Shyla,

When I had my 3rd child,he was born with a rare genetic disorder that prevented him from being able to nurse. He was tube fed,and later fed through a tummy tube. I insisted on pumping milk for him for 7 months,round the clock. At that time I found out I was pregnant with my 4th. With all the stress on my body,my milk totally dried up. I had no choice but to give my precious,special needs baby formula, aka "the devil milk". I had nursed my 2 previous babies and loved every minute of it. I cried at the thought of giving formula to my baby. I was a little surprised at how much it upset me. But I think God knew exactly what He was doing. Silly little things can become such a source of pride for me. My son is thriving now,formula and all! God is good and He is in control of EVERYTHING! You'll both be fine!Kristin Oakersonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27767365.post-90384294436788057092012-02-16T11:17:50.736-06:002012-02-16T11:17:50.736-06:00So why is my news reader just now showing me these...So why is my news reader just now showing me these posts?

I had a breast reduction when I was way too young and then wasn't able to nurse the babies I had after. I was told that I possibly could. I tried EVERYTHING!! But ended up bottle feeding. I 100% support breast feeding but my children are just fine.<br />I have three people I know of...one who had seven children, one who had three, another who just had one and they had one baby that just would not breastfeed. <br />I just wanted to let you know that your feelings are understandable I would feel exactly the same and felt like a failure when I could not nurse by babes but mine was clearly my doing. Yours is sooo not!!<br />I will pray that the Lord will give you wisdom, peace and deep, deep, comfort for your heart that is grieving. Bless you for being such a devoted mama. How the Lord must delight in your precious heart to love and nurture that little wee darl'in. I am sure He is so very pleased!<br />Grace to you.<br />Jacqueline<br />(((HUGS!!!)))Jacquelinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01079970932426448082noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27767365.post-14966463992493669672011-12-07T14:54:10.664-06:002011-12-07T14:54:10.664-06:00Congratulations Shyla,

Congratulations on this new precious baby. I will have to tell you that I have walked right where you are walking. We have been pursuing adoption for several years and have had many disappointments and grieved severely with each one. We have had doors shut on us in Nicaragua with children we had held in our arms. We had extreme disappointment with foster care. After this we cautiously began a process for domestic adoption through our local agency, only to learn the Lord was blessing us with a child of my womb. We were thrilled and were still willing to adopt, but the agency put everything on hold. We were heartbroken again. And ready to throw in the towel.<br /><br />Well, one year ago when our baby was 6 months old, our social worker suggested we look at one of their international programs. We hesitated but investigated. The rest is HIStory! We are now just a few weeks from going to China for our TWO new sons. <br /><br />It has been a long and painful road. No one can really understand the grief and loss unless<br />they have been there. I just could not understand why God had put the desire on our hearts but wasn't bringing it to fruition. But here we are, and I am praising Him for it all. I think after all<br />the disappointments and shut doors, it seems all<br />the more sweeter and definitely seems from the hand of God. <br /><br />Praying for you,<br />Rebekah, a MOMYS in ALAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27767365.post-32449711609338442122011-02-16T18:12:39.610-06:002011-02-16T18:12:39.610-06:00Congrats, Friend!
