OB Update

Well, good news today from my OB, Dr. Christensen. We had our weekly checkup this morning and my blood pressure has gone down. I am praising the LORD for the way He has been taking care of myself and this baby. It was a good time for me to get some forced rest (not something I am very good at when I know there is work to be done), and has really been a reminder that I need to keep getting rest as I get the chance so that I can take care of this baby now and when s/he is born. We got to have an ultrasound today, which was wonderful. It wasn't scheduled, but our Doc couldn't quite tell if the baby was head down or breech. S/he is head down, thank the LORD, but it's face up. So if it doesn't turn between now and labor we could have some added pain in the equation, or need to have a c-section. She gave me some ideas that could help turn the baby over. I am trusting the LORD and asking Him to turn this baby, but there are certainly worse things than a face up baby. It was fun to see the baby so developed and made me even more "anxious" for this sweet little baby to come into our lives. The doc said I was only dialated to the size of the tip of her finger, so she thinks I have a while still. It's good that the Creator of the universe and the Giver of life is in control of when this baby arrives. Thanks again for all your prayers!
