Congrats Nicole,
Maybe they will let you take your laptop in the delivery room. Maybe a webcam. LOL (hey, they do it for the celebs) Then we can get a moment by moment telecast.

Here's to a smooth N easy delivery. Take care
 
I don't mind sharing my day. You will be in our prayers.
 
Dont know if any has pointed this out to you, but...just because you go into labor today, doesnt allways mean you deliver today...

Hope you do!! Cant wait to see pics!
 
I bet she will have the baby today especially since this is #4??

Best wishes to you for a safe and FAST delivery
 
Good Luck!

I went into the Hospital at 06:30 to deliver my son and he wasn't born until 9:55pm.

I hope it's a fast delivery for you. I would love to see baby pictures when you have the time.

Well...

After being up all night with labor pains, and them progressively getting closer together (down to just under 5 minutes), they slowed down. Before sending me home, they decided to do a quick ultrasound to check position, and sure enough...HE TURNED AGAIN!

They tried to do a version, but failed. They sent us home. I still feel like I could go at any moment, and I believe that labor slowed (hasn't stopped) because I do not have pressure on my cervix from his head.

So, once again, PLEASE PRAY! I'll keep everyone updated!
 
Nicole,
I really hope he turns again. My friends baby wasnt turning and she was scheduled for a c section she had all the others natural no drugs. Her water broke and she had to have an emergency c section she did fine but she knew the Lord had his hands in the whole delivery process. Good luck. When is your due date??
 
Sorry you didn't deliver the baby today as of your last posting. I am sure you are quite anxious. You will be in my prayers and I guess when your little one is ready to come it will happen. I pray that it will be a great and healthy delivery!
 
I will keep you and your baby in my prayers. Keep us informed whenever you can. Can't wait to see pictures.
