trip to the midwife

we saw the midwife this morning, and she was very encouraging. the baby is in great position. the baby's head is at -1 and i am 1-2 cm dilated. all that to say - we are making progress but there is still much that needs/will happen before baby bud arrives. it could be tonight... or it could be next week. so we continue to wait.

thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. today i feel full of peace. knowing and trusting the timing will be right.

I am praying for you. I didn't realize how close we were - I'm delivering our baby next Friday, the 26th (she's breech so they scheduled a C-section)... unless of course she tries to come earlier. I'll be looking forward to seeing pictures of your little one soon! Hang in there - it is all SO worth it once you hold them, and you forget how uncomfortable you were at the end of the pregnancy.
