Let's Get This Baby Out!!

Another visit to the Women's Hospital prompted by a worried midwife! This time things were a little more ominous: Wendy's blood pressure was a little high and there was some proteinuria. So, to cut a long story short, the Doctor has decided to be better safe than sorry, and to induce the labour now! We were actually quite excited at the prospect, and agreed to get the ball rolling tomorrow morning. Before coming home, Wendy had a 'membrane sweep' (not for the faint-hearted!) which showed that the cervix has already begun to dilate. So things are well on the way!

  1. I keep clicking on your site, just to find out how things are going, ever since you mentioned Wendy's waters had broken.
    I just want to see a picture. You realise this is the blog event of the month.
    You are, all three of you, in my prayers, I ask God's blessing on you all.

  2. Wendy's waters haven't broken yet. I'm sorry if I gave you that impression! Anyway, things are on the way now, despite contractions not having yet begun. We appreciate your priestly prayers! God bless!

  3. All around the world people are waiting, hoping and praying. May God's love sustain you and Wendy and Maddy during these stressful but wonderful events.
    You'll be far too busy to do much blogging, but send us a brief line when you can.
