Well we have made it another week. In 7 days I will be considered full term although I have four weeks to my due date. We are still praying for at least 12 more days to ensure Jonathan will be in town. I went to my weekly appointment yesterday and everything was fine. I have not dilated, praise God. My cervix is somewhat effaced (thin), but that is relatively normal at this stage in pregnancy. I am no longer taking the Procardia to stop contractions (which it never did anyway).
Jonathan leaves tonight for Mississippi to be with his family and to attend his grandfather's funeral. He will be back late Sunday night. So please pray that his flight there and drive back are safe and that nothing happens with this baby while he is gone. He leaves again next Friday for Trey and Sarah's wedding. He is coming back on Sunday morning after the wedding. So...we just need things to continue to go smoothly and for me not to stress out without him here.
We have prepared for a natural, husband-coached childbirth. That won't work if the husband is not here! I have total confidence in God that things will work out well.
About Me
- Mandy
- I am striving to learn and grow more in 2012 than I have in any other year. I desire to be a better wife, mother, friend, and person in general. My goal is to grow spiritually and to become more like Jesus every day. My hope is to use this blog to share my journey with others to give and gain encouragement. I will post about my new job as a stay-at-home mom, what I am learning from books I am reading, crafts I am working on, and pertinent medical information.
