…because she’s like the dolphin and goes up and down and all around in her watery home. This morning, after a bit of an anxious night, the nurse did an ultrasound before admitting me and, once again, our little girl was HEAD DOWN! I know for a fact that she wasn’t head down when I woke up because I could see and feel her head up by my ribcage. But I guess she wanted to show off for the clinic staff. Needless to say, we are dlighted and thankful that, for now, we’ve avoided a painful and slightly dangerous version, but are a little nervous that this wiggle worm will never go down long enough to kick-start labor, and if she doesn’t, what that will mean for being induced or sliced open. Please keep praying as we have 4 weeks til they won’t let me go any further (I’ll be 38 weeks monday) and are in an uncomfortable but healthy position of just having to trust the Lord with this. I am just thankful to have a little bit more time before she’s out of my belly. I didn’t even take anything to the clinic today, I was so not ready and so in denial that she could be born quite soon. Hopefully this little episode will be the incentive I need to pack for the hospital and start getting out baby clothes.
Once again, thank you so much for your prayers. We are so thankful for the body of Christ and the way you minister to us through your prayers and messages. We are amazed at God’s love for us shown in such tangible ways.
Praise God!!! Go Martha, now you stay down and come into this world in the bext four weeks and with as much ease as possible! We’ll keep praying! Much love to you all!!!!
Yay!! so glad you didn’t have to go through the version! Still praying though:) love you heaps.
Martha, praying that your head feels particularly heavy to you in these next few weeks, heavy enough to stay DOWN!
Praise God! Hopefully Martha will not look like a dolphin when she comes out…Love you guys. -Matty
I was so glad to read this today! Praying!
Wow I am praying for your emotions because I am sure they are going up and down as well with every change that Martha makes.
Hope that she stays down for you!! We’ll be praying. (I met a Japanese girl today. She thought it was funny that the only word I knew was Sakago
Great starting point for conversation though!)
