Today is the day!

Yep, it's about 3:00 am. I can not sleep.Baby(Chance or Caden we will decide on which when we see him) will be here by 9:30 as long as the doctor is on schedule so of course I'm a little anxious and Emily Grace woke up worried about mama going to the hospital to stay, don't get me wrong , she is excited about having a little brother,but she is such a little worrier. She's only 4, but has the biggest heart you can imagine. She cries when she watches the Human society commercial that Sarah McLaughlin does, so I'm sure you can only imagine what she is thinking about me and the hospital. It really broke my heart to hear her talking in her sleep about it and then when she woke up. Greg and I have really tried to explain to her everything is going to be fine, but it is still hard for her to understand. Her pawpaw and uncle Jonathan are going to keep her today and try and keep her mind off of it until it is ok to bring her to see me and the baby. I really feel for them, they have probably got a harder job than my doctor does today!
I guess I should really try and get a few more minutes of sleep.YEAH RIGHT!! I go into the hospital at 7:30 this morning and my section will be at 9:00. Please keep us in your prayers today.
OH!! Greg is going to try and post some pictures either tonight or tomorrow.

No baby as of today. We went in for the amnio yesterday morning and recieved the results around 2:00 that the baby's lungs have not yet matured. Most of the time at 37 1/2 weeks they should have already matured, but with the diabetes the baby's body produces a protein that slows maturation.My Dr went ahead and scheduled the csection for May 29 like orginally planned. Hopefully the lungs will be mature by that time. I'm not really sure what to expect.

quick update

I go back to the Dr on May 15 for another sonogram to check my fluid level again.The fluid level had dropped instead of increasing last week. Thank goodness!!! If it has stayed the same then on the 22nd he will do an amniocentisis to see if the baby's lungs have developed. If they have he will do a c-section on May 22. The baby will only be 3 weeks early instead of a month or more like we have anticipated.
Last week the baby was already at 8lbs.
