Leaning on the Lord...

Trust in the Lord with all your heart, do not depend on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and He will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5&6

Let us then approach the throne of grace with assurance, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in time of need. Hebrews 4:16

The closer we get, the more time flies...

I'm almost 31 weeks and I'm not sure where the time went. It seems like my April due date is just around the corner. We've been able to confirm that Logan is breech (with little chance that he'll turn), so it appears a C-section is the way to go. It also increases our chance of having a live birth if he makes it that far.

We had a bit of a scare health-wise last week. The doctor thought I might have gall stones and ordered an ultrasound which came back negative. I think the stress of it all is getting to me and causing stomach pain as well as other infirmities. She was also looking to verify baby's position, as well as amniotic fluid level. I'm still waiting to hear back on the fluid level. We want to do our best to ensure he'll be alive at the birth so we'll get a little time with him. I'm told if the fluid decreases enough, he will pass away so we need to keep an eye on it.

Since my last update, I have emailed a contact at our church to request that they (as a church) pray for us. It's part of my "going public" with this trial we're in. Stepping out in faith...

I have really been thinking about you and praying for you lately. I know these next 8 weeks are going to be hard and I hope if you need anything you feel free to ask any of us moms at school.
