6 Days Until Jade Allison arrives!!!!!! Crunch Time!

OK, so my blood pressure has been going crazy! Wednesday we had to actually go into the doctor to have it checked. It went through the roof for me 150/88. Yikes. I even had traces of protein in my urine at that check so we were sent down to Labor and Delivery to be hooked up to the monitors for an hour and a half! It was boring and made my back hurt so bad. Anyways, we were told to go ahead and keep our appointment for Thursday and we would discuss stuff more in depth then. Turns out I have a serious Bladder infection on top of all that. (Obviously it isn't that bad or I would have figured it out already! Oh well.) When we go in yesterday for our regular appointment she checked me again and still NO PROGRESS! Jade is a stubborn little girl. My pelvis is actually narrowing instead of widening and she says there is absolutely no way I can deliver her regularly. She is very anti C-Section, but that is our only option right now. So we go back to the doctor at 8:45 Monday morning to schedule our time for Jade's birthday. She is coming Thursday October 1st for sure. We just don't know when yet. It will more than likely be an early morning thing though before Dr. Partridge's regular appointments start. I am so glad that she is the one doing the C-Section, but very sad that I won't get to experience real delivery. Another sad thing is that Kenny will get to hold her immediately and I won't get to for a good while. Hopefully though we can all get some pictures taken with her and Dr. Partridge right after she's born and Kenny still can cut the umbilical cord (that is if he feels up to it since he will have to see the incision on me... he's still deciding!) God has truely blessed us with this little miracle, and we know that he will make everything smooth and calm for us next Thursday! We cannot wait to hold our little miracle and we are in shock that it is coming so soon! 6 more days!!!!!!!!
Be praying for us that Kenny first of all will be able to handle the demands that a C-Section puts on a husband/new dad, Me that I will heal quickly and that I will be able to rock and roll as soon as possible, and for Jade that she will be perfectly healthy with 10 fingers and 10 toes and that she is beautiful and happy!

We love you all and will keep you posted on Monday about our scheduled time and what proceedures we will be going through.

P.S.- Baby Danny is here!!!!! He was born Wednesday September 23rd at 7:18pm. 7lbs. 7 oz. 21 inches long! He is precious! Looks just like Lonnie Gene! (Except no hair! Ha!) We love you guys and can't wait for Jade and Danny to meet! Katie and Lonnie Gene did so well! He's a keeper for sure!
