Small Scare

This past Friday I had a wonderful appointment! I never really know what I am going to hear when I go in each week. I can tell the baby is alive because I feel him move, but his development and chances for survival are something different. I prepared myself for the worst and ended up with good news! The baby's amniotic fluid level was really good and his development thus far is ok. I believe he measured a little small but I don't think it was a major concern. My doctor was even optimistic. I left the office that day praising God for the good news.

Later that evening, I noticed a pink discharge when I went to the bathroom and worried that it was the beginning of labor. They always ask if I am having any cramping or bleeding. I went in to labor and delivery that night but everything is still ok. I am no longer seeing pink. I am having a few contractions here and there but I am determined to hold this baby in!

May 28th is the day the c-section is scheduled. Pray with me that we make it to this date!
