The News!

At our Dr.'s appointment yesterday we found out more news. Nothing to definitive though!! Here are the details:
1. On the 29th we will have an amniocentesis done first thing that morning. We will know by mid morning if the baby's lungs are mature enough to join us out in the world. If they are mature...
2a. We will have the baby the evening of the 30th. We are scheduled after the 5pm c-section. So that means somewhere between 5:30 and 6pm. Of course there is the possibility they are not mature, and in that case...
2b. I will receive steroid shots to help mature the baby's lungs. Depending on what the levels are we might have another amniocentesis a week later. If the levels are borderline the baby will be born on the 6th without another amniocentesis.
I hope that is not all too confusing! Please keep this all in your prayers!

MaKieley is finishing up her first week of 1st grade right now! She loves it and has been bringing home lots of things to read to us! I think however that we are all ready for the weekend!

Love to all!
