I am tired of people telling me that I need to pray...(mini-vent)

I am the first one to say that no - I do not go and worship on a regular basis, but most of my dh's friends are telling me that if I pray I will get pg. I am sorry, and I dont mean to be rude but I guess the women who are doing drugs and drinking are praying more than me, so they deserve to get pg. I told my dh that if one more person tells me that I am going to scream at them. Dont they think that I am, in my own way. I hate them all right now.

Sorry, I just had to vent.

OMG, that makes me crazy!!

Oh, and "it's G-d's will"...that makes me want to kill someone

And while we are on the subject...these people that get pg with fertility drugs and have sextuplets and they don't reduce b/c G-d gave them this blessing or whatever...NO, SCIENCE gave it to you and now you will most likely have to deal with children with medical problems!!

If prayer beings you peace and comfort and helps you to feel that it is helping because you believe in it, then it is great. Hey, maybe it has helped some women. But, I don't believe that prayer for the sake of prayer will help at all. If it does not help you inside, then it is pointless. Of course, no one should tell you to pray to get pregnant. I mean, unless you were in a prayer group, I guess that would be differernt. But to randomly tell you that is unfair IMO. That is a very private thing for a person.

On the other hand, if someone feels that God has blessed them, even though science was involved, I don't see that as wrong either. Reducing is a VERY personal decision and only that couple can make the choice that is best for them. I mean, they have to life with the choice, not me.

I totally agree with you. Mostly my mom is the one that tells me that I need to pray and that God has a plan for me. So I did that, went to church and within a few days, had a miscarriage. I just really want to scream when people tell me to pray.

No I think you'll find it's an RE that is trying to help me get pregnant, not him upstairs.
