Prayer Request ~ Update!

I am so relieved that this day is over.

I was so nervous about this ultrasound that I had nightmares all night.

But!

Baby Matthew looked wonderful and healthy. Everything looked ok, he was breathing well, I have enough amniotic fluid, etc and I didn't need to go upstairs to Labour and Delivery for any further testing.

He has two arms and two legs.

We saw his little fists moving all around and watched him kicking at my bladder (ouch!).

She estimated his weight at 5lbs. Holy pickles!!

He is currently in a transverse position and said he should be head down in a few weeks.

Thank you to those who left encouraging comments here on my blog, or reached out on facebook and twitter. It helped so much to know that you were praying for me and for our little boy.

I'm looking forward to having a solid night's sleep!
