Hi all,
My brother and his wife, at 34 weeks pregnant, found out today for some reason the baby doesn't seem to be growing. He's at about 4 pounds. She is also low in amniotic fluid. Otherwise, everything looks fine. They are very concerned and see a specialist tomorrow at 2:30. Could you please, please help me keep them covered in prayer? This is a much wanted pregnancy after several years of infertility. I'll post an update when I know more.
Thanks and God bless,
Angela

***More prayers needed: she is in surgery for an emergency c-section right now. The amniotic fluid was found to be too low at her appointment today. I hope to post good baby news sometime later when we hear more...Thanks so much for all the prayers!
God bless,
Angela

***Aaron Christopher is here! He was born Monday late afternoon. He weighed 4 lbs 11 oz. and is 18 1/4 inches long. He had a bit of trouble breathing to begin with, but is breathing on his own and is considered a Level 1. ICU only, not NICU. A really good thing, I think!   My brother said Jill came through it all fine; well as fine as any surgery can go! Aaron's main concern now is a little digestive trouble. They are trying to establish nursing while he's still on IV, so prayers for him to suck and breathe! Thanks for all your loving thoughts and prayers. Jennifer is right; I have a 4 week old myself and we're trying to establish our "new normal."
Love,
Angela
