Seeking God...

Today i am officially 2 days over-due. However..i can see that there is an end in sight! Yesterday i went to the doctor and got a lovely internal done :) I am between 1-2 cm dialated, my cervix is getting really soft and baby is engaged! These are all wonderful signs that my body is doing things on its own..praise God!
Yesterday he also did a "membrane sweep "...so far nothing has come of it, but they say that it could take two days before something happens. Apparently Im getting really good at this whole 'waiting thing'..lol
I have another appointment Monday morning, if baby hasnt made her way into the world by then my doctor is going to schedule an induction for next week. I am trying to let my vision go of things happening on their own because i dont want to be dissapointed. God could very well bring our baby to us through induction and i am coming to terms with it. I still am praying that i will get to experience a drug-free birth that happens on its own timing, but i have no control over this.
Ever since Sunday we have received numerous calls & text messsages asking if baby has been born, and yes sometimes its slightly annoying but i took a step back yesterday and realized that God has blessed us with so many amazing people in our lives who are just as excited as we are to welcome this child. Its so wonderful to have such great support and positive encouragment.
My mom has truly been a God sent, i dont think there are words to thank her enough for all that she has done, ecspecially these last two weeks. I want so badly to thank her but words arent enough and no material gift would ever be good enough.
Thank u to amazing friends and amazing mom!!

  1. Awww, thats so wonderful that your mom is able to be there with you through it all ... if I didn't have my kids I would seriously be there with you all the way. I love you so much, God is probably just sitting up there giggling watching you anticipate this child .... you're so adorable and he's just having fun with you now <3
