Around 6am my water broke. It wasn't anything drastic, but subtle. But since I noticed a difference, my nurse got the Dr. on call to verify that the fluid was in fact from ruptured water. So at first I was disappointed and freaking out a little, but then I realized I was wanting 'my will' to be done...I wanted it to be so that I was still stable w/no water breaking...I wanted it to be so that I'm here until April w/no changes...so I give it to God now, like I had before. I can't get all worked up about this, because if my son comes, he comes and it is because God will allow whatever happens to happen. Such great progress has been made in the 4 weeks I've been here on bedrest in the hospital and all the doctors & nurses are amazed.
So there is the possibility I can be stable for several days & even weeks, but it's all up in the air so-to-speak. So since about 10:25 am, the Dr. had me moved into Labor & Delivery (L&D) so that I can be on the monitors for several hours, which they cannot do in the room I was in at Maternity Services. However, they hope to have me back in the room I was in this afternoon...as long as there's no significant changes on the monitors. (The monitors show the baby's heart rate, movement, and my contractions).
I haven't eaten breakfast but they said since I can't really feel the contracting that much, I can have a regular lunch!
It's noon and Leon isn't here yet, but he's on his way. My mom got here about 11:15 am.
So, I'm just hangin' in there...Hangin on to God's Grace. :o>
---Please pray that I can gain more time being stable for Malakai to grow more.
