Scheduled C-Section

Last Friday I went to my appointment. We discussed some options such rupturing the membrane bag, but if the baby wouldn't drop before hand, it would pose the risk of death to our child as the cord could fall beneath and his head could compress it. Today we went to our appointment and he still hasn't dropped so we are not comfortable with having the bag ruptured. We now have a c-section scheduled for Monday evening. They will call to let us know when. We are hoping and praying that I will go into labor on my own before then.

The good news is our little boy was over 9 lbs last Friday. He's healthy and thriving and has lots and lots of hair according to the ultrasound.

I'll post another update before Monday. Please continue with your prayers. Pray for my husband - I'll share why later after the birth.
