Doctor's Visit

We just got in from the doctor's appointment with Prenatal Wellness. We saw a doctor and were able to get all of our questions answered. Our doctor was very understanding and was able to give us a little more peace about how everything will happen on Tuesday morning.

After my check up he said that I have not progressed any, so we should be on schedule for the induction on Tuesday. He did give me numbers to call if I do go into labor over the weekend, but he seems to think that we are safe to plan on Tuesday morning at this point. 

We found out a little more about delivery and the process that Mac will go through for stabilization. He said that I should get to hold him briefly while they clean him up and cut the cord. Then he will be whisked into the room next door where we can watch through the window as they get him stabilized. After he is stabilized, mom, dad, and Harlie will get their first look at him as he is taken to PCICU. The plan is PCICU unless he has any other unexpected complications. Vince will get to travel with him wherever he goes in the beginning. I am sure he will be keeping us updated and taking lots of pictures. 

I am so glad that we were able to come on down and meet with a doctor down here one more time before our induction. I am feeling much more prepared and at peace about the entire situation. 

Our focus now is to just rest and wait for Tuesday morning. Please pray for our family as we try to wait patiently for the next 4 days to pass. Please pray for a healthy baby and mom at that time. Please pray for the rest of our family as we are all under tremendous stress in this situation. Please pray for all of the doctors, nurses, residents, and interns that we encounter along the way. There are many important decisions to be made and we are praying that all of those involved we be making decisions under the Lord's anointing. We trust that God is in control and that his plan is perfect. We appreciate your continued prayers and support. We love you all!
