I have joyous news tempered by some unfortunate diagnostic information.
My wife, the luscious Rambette, is carrying our fourth child, due sometime around February 15th. The problem is she's now been to the emergency room twice for spotting. Both times turned out to be no danger of a miscarriage, but we were told there may be some separation of the placenta. That means that it can be expected to either resolve itself, or it could conceivably get worse and result in miscarriage.
We are trusting God and we covet your prayers for full healing and a safe, healthy delivery.
Prayers sent!

Prayers for the precious child and family.
Prayers are on the way, Mr. Silverback. Please keep us posted.
No, she never posted much.
Much appreciated, sir.
Prayers for God’s Blessings on all.
Thank you all very much for your prayers, pings, encouragement and advice. It means a lot.
Prayers being sent to your entire family.
I have both my DIL & Niece expecting at the same exact time in January. They have both experienced spotting and were ordered to bed rest. We consider both of these children special blessings from God as my mother predicted it on her deathbed. (Both were not planned)
Please believe that God is watching over your wife and also give you the strength you need to support her at this time.
God has given me so much strength in the last 7 months that I have to believe He is there watching over all of us.
God Bless you all.

Very Urgent Prayer Request
Please pray for Mr. Silverback, his wife and their unborn baby.
Thank You and God Bless
Still praying.
My German doctors seriously emphasized laying still. The spotting would stop, I'd start moving, we'd end up with the placenta starting to separate again and I'd lay back down for another month.
Don't know why it happens, but it really can be OK. I know how hard it is to deal with this when you already have children (My daughter was a toddler at the time), but, with help, you can get through this.
The worst part was lying still for 6 months, *then* having to go through induced labor! That's like being bedridden, then being forced to run a marathon. Not fun!
I'll add my prayers to the list! :-)
Prayers for baby and family...
Amen to your prayers, my brother and sisters.
Psalm 127:3
Lo, children are an heritage of the LORD: and the fruit of the womb is his reward.
James 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, with whom is no variableness, neither shadow of turning.
Father, according to Your Word, this precious child is a gift from You for this family and Your gifts are perfect, so we thank You for the perfection of this pre-born child and thank You for its health and the health and well-being of each and every family member. We ask You for whatever help the mother needs to make birthing this child a priority—call Your servants to perform her chores and minister to her body, soul and spirit. We also ask You for wisdom for the medical staff serving her for You.
We rejoice in this new life and in You, the Giver of Life. All glory to You, most excellent, good and powerful God.
We pray in the name of Jesus. Amen.
I pray that Jesus will bless and heal your family.
Prayers up!
