38 Weeks, Wow

Is it really possible that Christina could arrive in just 11 days? Or even any day now, Wow! How very wonderful to hold her sweet self!!!

Here is a photo collage from yesterday:

I am doing well. My stomach is a becoming more sensitive as time goes by. My hands, wrists, and inside of my elbows by far hurt the most from all the poking they received yesterday - at least 11 jabs from attempted IVs, blood tests, numbing agents and anesthesia. My goal is to walk A LOT to help Christina engage her sweet head and keep her from flipping head up again. I am also wearing a band at the top of my belly to help keep her down.

Amy is quite the trooper and is becoming a wonderful mother. She endured all these hardships (and more) with grace in order to benefit precious little Christina and give her a healthy and natural induction into the outside world. ~~John
