HI Everyone,

I am just a little stressed.

Our first house deal fell through, so we had to race 6 hours away and look for another this week....we did find one after an exhausting tour de force of the countryside!! So, thanks be to God for that....now, could you all pray that this house appraises okay? Our financing is fine, we could close this Friday, and the movers are scheduled for next Monday. That is my husband's first day on the job, so I'll be going solo for the move...
At my high risk OB this week, we found out I have pretty significant polyhydraminos, lots and lots of amniotic fluid, which is what I had with my last little one that had the syndrome that caused breathing and swallowing problems. They suspect this little one might have the same syndrome, just maybe not as significant, but now that the polyhydramios is worse, they are more concerned. AND...at 31 weeks, she is breech. I have never had a breech baby this late....being the compulsive worrier I am, I keep thinking..."hum, moving in a week out of state, high risk baby, and now I might have a c-section?!?" I know that everything is far out in the future, I can't go "there" yet, and she might very well turn.....

I keep hearing Our Lady's words to Juan Diego....
"fear no illness or vexation..am I not your Mother?"
She was talking about moving, high risk pregnancy, and medically intense kids, right?!?!

You all are in my prayers as well!!

I am praying for you - wow you have so much going on. I will pray especially for the polyhydramnios - I am sure it is uncomfortable for you. (I had oligohydramnios with the twins - the other way round). Lot of prayers for the little one too. I will offer my rosary this afternoon for your move and all the intentions.

Sending hugs and peaceful thoughts.

You are right! Our Lady is speaking to you. Take life minute by minute & let God work out all the details for you.
My family & I will be praying especially hard for you & baby. May God grant you strength, peace & calm at this time.

Praying for you. Don't let your mind go with all the possible problems. One thing at a time, before you know it you will be moved and (somewhat) settled in your new home waiting for your little one to arrive.

I will pray for house things to go smoothly, for baby to turn and for her health, and of course, peace for you!

Try to take one thing at a time. I once read something by a homeschooling mother with a chronic disease that seemed very wise to me. She said in really tough situations you just have to focus on doing the next thing, and sometimes the next thing is passing out.

I will definitely keep you, your family, and especially your little one in my prayers.

Praying for you and your lassie.
She might very well turn -- a couple of mine didn't turn till after 35 weeks.

Bless you, Willa, that makes me feel better. One reason there is hope she'll turn is I have so much amniotic fluid!! The doc said looking at the ultrasound it looked like I had over a 1000ml....wow!! No wonder my back hurts. I still have around 8-9 weeks left. When I had polyhdraminos with my last ds, I lost 15 pounds when my water broke.....can you believe that?!? It was like carrying twins....

Angela.....passing out indeed, I work for a while and grab a spot on the couch to sleep....it is easier if I focus on the present moment, each one certainly brings enough to deal with!!!

Thanks all for your prayers. My dh said the title company called to say Friday's crucial closing date is looking just fine....whew!

God Bless you all!
