Tiny Glimmer of Hope

Went to our doctor today and the baby is still growing with a normal heartbeat. Praise God! But the hope we got was that our dr. saw a little amniotic fluid around the baby's head. It is still not enough for the baby to develop normally but compared to Monday when there was no fluid, we are grateful that there is some. Our desire is that the baby will keep producing enough to develop normally. I know my dr. was wrong last time, and could be wrong again, but I do feel like we will take whatever good news we can get.

Right now the biggest risk is infection to me and the baby. So we are praying against infection and also that my body heals so the baby can have enough fluid to survive. The dr. was very honest that our prospects are not good, but God has given us hope today. Right now our hope is in Him.

  5. Lee, Kady Dunlap forwarded this to me. I hate that you are going through this. Hunter and I are praying for a miracle, and praying for "the peace of God which surpasses all understanding to guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus."
