How exciting, Kelly!! :D :D You're in my thoughts and prayers...especially Thursday. (I kept watching your little pregnancy counter and expecting you to suddenly disappear. Now you know when the exciting arrival will be! :D ) My oldest was 25 days early which totally shocked us because I fully expected him to be late. This always made the last month so long because I got ready "just in case" it happened again. :roll: My boys were both due on April 29...Grant was born on April 4 and Garret May 3. There was a 3 lb difference too!! :shock:

Can't wait to hear how you're doing after Lillian arrives!

Praying for your tonight and tomorrow. So excited for you. I know it is going to be wonderful and just think tomorrow you will be holding your precious baby at last! Praying for and easy and wonderful birth tomorrow and a happy and healthy baby. :D

And bumping this up so others will also be reminded to be in prayer for you as you get closer.

Thanks for all the prayers! It means so much to me!

I got bumped...meaning that they had such a busy night that when I called at 5:30 they had no beds available. I'm suppossed to call back in about half-hour to see if they can get me in or need to reschedule me. However I've lost my mucous plug so I don't think it will be long anyway. I've been having some contractions and while they are getting stronger they are still sporadic so I'm not too concerned yet. Still hoping it WILL be today though.

I'll keep ya posted....

Kelly,
Sounds like you're on your way whether the hospital has room or not. I hope that they can find a nice space for you. And if you do end up being induced, it's by far the better of my two birth experiences.

Did you have the baby today? I hope, I hope, I hope. Nothing smells sweeter than a new baby. Just wanted you to know I am praying for you still.

Praying that you are holding your precious little babe in your arms now! My prayers come from South Dakota - I loved reading where all the different prayers were coming from for you and your baby - it's like God strategically placed all of us across the U.S. (even the world) to blanket you with prayer! After you've rested, I can't wait to hear about how you and the baby are doing! :D

In Christ,

Thanks for all the prayers...they have meant so much to me!

She is here!!!! :D

My midwife wanted me to meet her at the hospital just to be checked after hearing that I was contracting and had lost my mucus plug. When I got there, I was almost 6cm dialated and 90% effaced so she told me I wasn't going anywhere. They got me hooked up to IV meds in the triage and I was told I could not get up to walk around or anything like that till the got the first dose of meds in me (they didn't want me to do anything to help things along). They got me a room as soon as one opened up (I got a great room too...biggest one they have!).

They did have to break my water, and I had her 3 hours later. 5 minutes of pushing (2 pushes).

She was 8lbs 2oz, 21" long. And healthy. :D

I'll be working to get some pictures on my blog as soon as I can, I'll let you know when they are up...might still be a couple of days.
