Yesterday afternoon, I was able to spend some quiet time telling the LORD all of my concerns and really pondering what it means to trust Him. I was also able to read some good material on the spiritual disciplines and to ponder how Christ is the one who changes us- not our strivings at righteousness. These 2 things plus your prayers put my soul in a very comforting spot.
Thank you.
My appointment went really well. The top number of my blood pressure was high again- but the midwife and I agreed that it is simply whitecoat hypertension. The plan is for me to continue monitoring it at home and those numbers will go in my chart. They will STOP taking it at the office. They will continue monitoring my protein levels (which have been totally negative so far). If my blood pressure goes up at home, then they will do something. If not, we have nothing to worry about.
Thank you, Jesus!
This should make for a much less stressful 3rd trimester!
The midwife also measured the baby (she's growing just right) and listened to her heartbeat (it sounded beautiful) and felt that her head is down (good girl!)
Right now we are praising God for His faithfulness. Today it is being demonstrated through his blessing. Even if a complication does arise- we KNOW he is forever good!
