Last night Crystal started having intense contractions – distinct from the usual braxton hicks contractions – and we thought it was time. So we quickly prepared everything, borrowed the MCC truck, and loaded up to leave. We were worried because Crystal and I still have this respiratory infection. Labor is hard enough when you can breath properly. I can take medicine but Crystal’s options are limited.
Crystal’s mom, Rose, called in the middle of this to ask if she was having the baby yet. Apparently Grandma and Grandpa were having some sympathy pains and thought it might be a sign. It was, in a way.
But then, after about two hours, the contractions abruptly stopped. Crystal was exhausted and quickly went to sleep, only to be woken by coughing bouts throughout the night.
So, the baby will be coming any time now. It could be today, tonight, tomorrow. We’re in the zone now.
Please pray that Crystal’s illness abates, for a easy labor and delivery, and for a healthy baby and mom.
You got it son!! ππ₯°π₯°π₯°π₯°π₯°
You’ll have to change your name to the 5 C’s π
Thanks Grandmom! I’ll update the tag line but changing the actual url is…complicated. I’m sure he won’t mind.
Praying for health for you all–but especially Crystal and your precious baby.
Thanks Dawn!
