Opionions are great, but I would prefer to only hear from Professionals in the field and/or women who can truly provide sound recommendations. (remember every pregnancy is different).
What I mean about High Risk is this: I’m 40 so I am at a higher risk of preterm labor etc than let’s say a 20 something; however, I am not experiencing any of the problems many high risk moms to be have. Not sure if I am making sense, but the real need here is about “am I doing too much?”
Okay I need to clarify something on my lifting. I LIFT with my legs so when I lift cases of water, I lift with my legs. I go to a prenatal trainer, and he has trained me how to lift (even not being pregnant), and a case of water can’t be more than 20 lbs so I look @ it as lifting weights. But I don’t want to be ignorant either. I just am a go-go-go-go type of person, but I guess I do need to curtail things a bit.
And for poster Yarro, my OB NURSE and MFM phsyician said the SAME thing - listen to my body. And my trainer did say also to listen to my body…

Topic: Medieval Love and Marriage

Scene 1

Setting: Jesse and Evangeline sneak out to a tiny tent belonging to Jesse in Lord Cadman’s manor to talk.

Evangeline: Jesse, I have some terrible news. I am afraid that my bitter, envious mother had already made my marital arrangements, and it is no one you are going to like.

Jesse: What are you talking about my love?

Evangeline: (sounding sad and angry) I have to be bethrowed to no other than your Lord, Cadman; the same Lord Cadman who owns this very manor. He is certainly the wealthiest, cruelest, being alive.

Jesse: (freaking out) What are we to do? Is there no way to tell your parents we are in love? Would you like to elope? I shall do anything to please you as long as we shall be together.

Evangeline: I am afraid there is nothing we can do. You know how marriages these days work. We women have no choice! We mustn’t tell anyone of our affair for they may kill you! It is best we do not see each other very often. It will certainly help me trying to move on. How shall I ever love another man?

End of Scene

Scene 2

The wedding takes place in a highly decorated church.

The Priest: (speaking to everyone in church) Dearly beloved, we are gathered together here in the sight of God to join together this Man and this Woman in holy Matrimony; which is an honorable estate, instituted of God in Paradise, and into which holy estate these two persons present come now to be joined. Therefore if any man can shew any just cause, why they may not lawfully be joined together, let him now speak, or else hereafter for ever hold his peace.
(speaking to Lord Cadman) Lord Cadman, wilt thou have this Woman to be thy wedded wife, to live together after God’s ordinance in the holy estate of Matrimony? Wilt thou love her, comfort her, honor, and keep her, in sickness and in health; and forsaking all other, keep thee only unto her, so long as ye both shall live?

Lord Cadman: I will

Priest: (speaking to Evangeline) Wilt thou have this man to be thy wedded husband, to live together after God’s ordinance in the holy estate of Matrimony? Wilt thou obey him, and serve him, love, honor, and keep him in sickness and in health; and, forsaking all other, keep thee only unto him, so long as ye both shall live?

Evangeline: (crying/sobbing) I will

Priest: Who giveth this Woman to be married to this Man?

Kathleen: I do

Kathleen places Evangeline’s right hand in the hand of the minister then sits back down

The Priest places Evangeline’s right hand in Lord Cadman’s and follows after the priest

Lord Cadman and Priest: I Lord Cadman take thee Lady Evangeline of Ireland to my wedded wife, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, till death us depart, according to God’s holy ordinance; and thereunto I plight thee my troth.

Lord Cadman places his right hand in Evangeline’s

Evangeline and Priest: I Lady Evangeline of Ireland take thee Lord Cadman to be my wedded husband, to have and to hold from this day forward, for better for worse, for richer for poorer, till death us depart, according to God’s holy ordinance, and thereunto I plight thee my troth.

Cadman shall give one ring to Evangeline and give the a duplicate as well as a book to the Priest

Priest: (blessing rings) Bless these Rings, O merciful Lord, that those who wear them, that give and receive them, may be ever faithful to one another, remain in your peace, and live and grow old together in your love, under their own vine and fig tree, and seeing their children’s children. Amen.

Priest gives ring to Cadman and Cadman places the ring on Evangeline’s fourth finger, holds the ring and says:

Cadman: With this Ring I thee wed, (here placing it upon her thumb) and (here placing it upon her index finger) (here placing it upon her ring finger) In the Name of the Father, Amen.

Then join bride and grooms hands

Priest: I now pronounce thee Man and Wife

(speaking to bride and groom) Those whom God hath joined together let no man put asunder.

Cadman: (exiting) Come, let us all fill our bellies with the successfully harvested food!

Scene 3

Evangeline: (packing her things to leave as her voice reads the letter in the background-by recording her voice)

Letter: Dear Jesse, life here has been horrible. There has never been a day where you haven’t been in my thoughts. Every time I see that darned Cadman’s face I want to vomit and deeply wish for your comfort. How can I fall in love with a groom who was chosen for me like so many others do, when I am in love with you? If you were at the wedding you would have been fooled by his false smiles and fake laughs just as anyone else would have; but it only takes a week and a half for a human being to be truly disgusted with him.

Lord Cadman storms in

Cadman: (rudely) Meet me in the parlor in twenty minutes!

Finishing Letter: I do not think I can play this game any longer, which is why I have decided we should elope. Maybe I am being foolish or crazy to flee from a powerful man’s home, but it is best that I follow my heart. I will come to you with the little I have, since I will not accept any belongings Lord Cadman bestowed upon me. I have only my wedding dress as well as my filthy gown which has grown too small. Jewelry, shoes, nightgowns, these were all things I had before, but now I am left with nothing. The other wives weren’t exaggerating when they said husbands controlled their wives. I shall see you soon one way or another. Love, Evangeline.

Holding up “One Week Later” sign

Evangeline: Oh I can’t wait to see Jesse! I am so furious at Lord Cadman to whom I am betrothed!

A number of these deadlines, however, such as that for the year 2000, have already come and gone with obviously no world-ending consequences. What of these? Did God lie, or did His followers misinterpret Him?
[blonde]SMART♥, uhhh, take that!
reginachick22: Thanks for the clarification. If these false prophets speak of the coming of the end of the world, then who are the true prophets? If you say the Bible, are you sure, because the Bible has passed through so many human hands, who knows whether someone could’ve changed stuff here and there for whatever purpose.
