My due date has come and gone, much to our surprise. We really thought that Baby S would arrive early after all of the pre-labour I have experienced, but we continue to trust in the Lord's perfect timing!
This morning I was greatly encouraged by the words of Psalm 139:16, which reads;
'Your eyes saw my unformed substance; in your book were written, every one of them, the days that were formed for me'. What a great reminder that the Lord has ordained every moment of each day for me already, and I can rest in this. We can also rest in the fact that He has ordained the perfect day and time for our little miracle to enter the world, whenever that may be!
39 Weeks
My swollen feet!!
Last week, my mom came with me to my midwife appointment, which was really special. She got to meet some of the amazing women who have been caring for us and baby for the past 9 months, and she got to hear Baby S' heartbeat in person.
Her prediction that this baby is a girl was confirmed once again, as the heart rate was 156 last week.
I was a little discouraged at my appointment to find out that I was not dilated at all yet, but I know that can change quickly...and it did!
40 Weeks, taken on my due date June 27
Just 5 days later I had my next appointment (Tues of this week), and I was 2cm dilated! I was so encouraged and thankful to find out that we are making progress!
So now the question remains...will Baby S be a June baby or a July baby??!!
your poor feeet! mine were like that too with the first baby. thankfully the next pregnancy should be easier on your feet. whenever i see swollen pregnancy feet i always feel so bad for the momma b/c i totally remember the feeling. hang in there. and try to enjoy these last few days. you won't be pregnant forever :)
