So I am full term and just waiting for labor to start so we can have our baby! It's been a fairly frustrating week. I have had Braxton Hicks contractions all week... Yesterday I thought we might be getting into the real thing...they were 5 minutes apart, then 3 for several hours and then nothing. So yeah, it's a very disappointing experience. As David would say, the good news is that we are going to have a baby...at some point. :) It's harder when the false contractions start because it gets my hopes up that the time might be here...and then when they die down I am left feeling stupid (that I thought it might actually be time) and depressed (because it's not).
I have been praying about my frustrations as I anxiously wait...but the sin in me allows little room for peace. I continue to let my mind wonder into other thoughts and hopes rather than sitting in peace. This is something I really struggle with... not allowing myself to think about things that bring on anxiety...and resting in a peace.
So if you all could just pray for us right now as we wait for Baby... for inner peace, patience, and letting go of trying to have things happen in my timing....
Thanks. :)
