Hi all,
I'm measuring at 40 weeks when I'm only at 35...not sure what the doc will want to do. Could you pray for peace of mind, a healthy baby, healthy mom, and healthy delivery? I posted about it here.
God bless and Happy Easter!
Angela
Edited: Could I beg for some prayers again? I see my OB at 8:30 tomorrow morning. I figure she'll check me, and then start pushing for induction - (according to her, I'm birthing a toddler ) I've been doing a LOT of reading online and found that one method she wanted to use is pretty dangerous (Cytotec)...so, I think I may be in for it defending my choice to take a wait and see attitude. So if you could pray for her - maybe through her guardian angel and for me as well, I'd appreciate it!
And maybe that I just go into labor tonight... I'm at 38 weeks now.
Thanks so much, prayer warriors!
Angela

YES, Angela!
To me, that is a great blessing---a huge baby. See? The grass is *always* greener. I always barely measure the week I'm s'posed to be!!!!
(Seriously though, I know there can be some health risks or concerns if it seems the baby might be retaining sugars or water, or if there is an excess of amniotic fluid---don't mean to make light of your concerns. Just give you hope that it is a GOOD sign that that is one happy, healthy baby in there!!!! Yay----a baby soon!)
Let us know.....!

Oh, thank you so much for all your prayers and kind words. You have no idea how much it helps and calms me!
Theresa, I don't have the next appointment scheduled...we were to schedule it when she called me after her review of the u/s. She hasn't called yet, and I'm not sweating it! I'll keep you posted!
God bless,
Angela

Angela,
Just checking in and saw your prayer request. You have my prayers, as always! Not too long until you meet your precious baby!! I will pray for discernment for you as you navigate all that medical advice. It is so hard...

Prayed. I'm a little shocked that a doctor in this day and age would prescribe Cytotec with all the documented risks and horror stories. You and your OB will be in my prayers.
