A Scare This Morning

This morning, Amanda woke up to find that she was bleeding. She obviously freaked out, and headed straight to the ER to find out what was going on. Her neighbor drove her in, and she kept saying, "Call my aunt Gail, you need to call her!". But her neighbor, "B", said that wasn't a good idea, to wait until she knew more. In a way, I'm really glad that "B" talked her into waiting, because I would have been a nervous wreck waiting for updates! So, Amanda called us this afternoon after spending all morning in the hospital being checked out. She's home, and so far all is fine.

Well, the baby is doing well, the heart rate is still up around 167 beats per minute, and her cervix is still closed. The doctor thinks that because she didn't have a chance to have a true period after having Jacob, that her body just needed to "shed" some excess. She is to call her OB on Monday and get in early next week for a follow up.

We're hoping and praying that's all it is, and that the baby continues to thrive and do well. Please send prayers our way. Thanks!
