Good News!

I had my 4th ultrasound to check on the location of the placenta and my need
for a c-section as my due date gets closer. The technician took all the measurements of
the baby and then the doctor came in. She looked for a minute and then let out a laugh
and said that I had no need to be there! The placenta has moved from the very bottom of
my uterus to the very tippy top. A serious miracle.

So I don't have anymore ultrasound appointments and I don't need a c-section. Yay! It
was such good news and I wanted to let everybody know.

We know that lots and lots of people have been praying and fasting for us and we are so
grateful. The power of the Priesthood is evident here as well and my testimony has been
strengthened.

The technician said that from his measurements he already weighs 6 1/2 pounds (give or
take a little). She took some 3D pictures and you can see that he already has chubby
cheeks. The measurements moved my due date up to May 17th but my midwife said that
they won't officially change it. I guess I will just be ready starting mid-May for this baby to
come.

Thank you for all your love and prayers.

Now we just need to pick a name...

That is great news! I don't blame you for being stressed about a c-section, they don't sound fun. Yeah for pregnancy problems that solve themselves!
