Update on Baby

Hi everyone. I imagine most of you never thought I would still be pregnant at this point, but I am.

Today, we had a dr's appointment I never intended to be going to and found out that baby is fully transverse breech (head on my right, buns on my left). My amniotic fluid is also murky, indicating that there is meconium in it. Thankfully, I have a lot of fluid, so this probability is not quite as bad as it would be if I had very little amniotic fluid.

So, we are staying near the hospital tonight because of baby's positioning and the chance of my water breaking causing an emergency situation. Tomorrow morning we will go into the hospital at 6:15am for monitoring and dr. will turn baby at 7am. After that, we will more than likely begin pitocin because this baby hasn't been known to stay put.

Please be praying that baby's vitals remain good through all of this and that things go well in all aspects of this baby's birth. I am trying very hard not to have any expectations at this point and just pray for a safe delivery whatever that may mean. We appreciate your prayers so much!

Ty & Amy

Amy-
I happened on your blog while reading Lynette's blog. I was trying to find some help for my friend Martha, who gave birth to a stillborn baby boy on December 5. I too have lost a child. Our little Joseph was 11 mths and 1 week when we found him in his crib. He had already gone to be with Jesus when we found him. He had never been sick with anything other than a little cold. We later found out that he died of Veillonella parvula- a very rare infection that caused him to go into septic shock. I can't believe how the Lord led me to your blog. We lost Joseph almost 10 years ago but there is not a day that goes by that I don't long to be with him. Thank you for sharing your story. I pray blessings and health on your new baby!

I am praying for you guys!! My little one was breech, and when the doctor turned her the second time (when I was closer to due), she stayed put. I will continue to pray!

Love,

Heather
