Upcoming Visit (37 Weeks)

This Thursday I have my 37th week check up. Jesse will be coming with me. The doctor has been a little difficult with us. She seems to love a lot of medical intervention with her patients. She first mentioned the C-section since the baby wasn't turning (it was kind of early for her to make that call). Now she said I will need an epidural since I have a flat pelvis (whatever that means). We really desire to be left to labor in a peaceful environment not where we are being pressured to do things. So please pray that the doctor and nurses would be cooperative with our labor requests and preferences. And that we would know when those interventions are really necessary. It's calming to know that the Lord is in total control of our lives and we desire to entrust every little bit of anxiety to him.

"Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplications with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus" (Phil 4:6-7)
