Any Day They Say!
Yes, she is prepped to come ANY DAY!
We never imagined that I would still be pregnant at this time, as we were told she would come early because of her size. Well, this little girl has us on pins and needles for weeks now, we have wondered if it is going to be “THE DAY”.
I know many of you too, thought she would be here by now, but we know this girl is definitely worth the wait. I mean we have waited how many YEARS for her – years of prayers and tears. I think we can wait a few more days or weeks – though it is getting hard!
I had another appointment today and even though we had a bit of a scare, she is perfectly healthy! He had a hard time finding a strong heartbeat. He wasn’t sure what she did inside there, but he was concerned, so they put me on a heart monitor and then also did an ultrasound, and both confirmed a very healthy heartbeat! When he prefaced his sentence with “I don’t want to scare you…” I became a little nervous, but my doctor is so great about explaining everything! And like I said, she is just fine, which makes this mom and dad all the more at peace. Plus, I got to sit and hear her heartbeat for 10 minutes, and see her little body again (though maybe it’s not so little anymore)!
My body is adjusting and moving right along, so as my doctor said, it could be any day! I have another appointment next week, so we will see once if I make it to that one, or if she comes by then. We know her little body has probably got to be running out of room in there, as I felt like this past week she grew like crazy, but just wait until that little bundle is tightly wrapped in our arms!
Will it be days or weeks? All we know is that she has got to be ready soon, we are ready, and we wait patiently for God to say He is ready to do His work.
And for those who saw Dan at the CMCS’ boys basketball game in Minneapolis and not me, I know that probably turned some heads as he was there without me! I know many asked if I was in labor, but I just had an appointment today and didn’t want to change it again (it was supposed to be yesterday). I personally told Dan to go because I didn’t want him sitting around with me all day, waiting for nothing – and good thing he went because she isn’t here yet! We both went yesterday, which was SO much fun and am glad I was able to make at least one game! We had such good talks on the way there, had fun doing one last big “thing” together, and decided we are ready to be mom and dad to this little girl!
Any day, any day…
