The Pregnant Works of Mercy

  1. This is so true! I felt so queasy my whole last pregnancy and felt so bad for basically not participating in anything. If it happens again I will remember this reflection:)

  3. Mary this is beautiful and hits the guilty spot in my heart as I waddle in third trimester woes. Thank you for writing this. You should submit it to Catholic mom or something. I'm teary eyed and whether it's hormones or not, I love this post.

  4. I apologize if this comment shows up about 3 times later...my internet connection keeps dropping!
    I've been mostly on bedrest for a few weeks and feeling like the worst mom ever for not being able to do all the things I want to do with my older kids (not to mention the house and everything else!!) This is just what I needed to read. Thank you!!

    1. Oh, I'm so sorry you have to be on bed rest! That must be so hard. What a good work you are doing and what a witness it can be to your other children, though, don't forget that. I'm so glad my words were helpful. Prayers for you and your family and may this be a time of grace for all of you.

  5. Thank you for this. I've read it before, but it means so much more at 39 weeks pregnant.
