Tick-tock, tick-tock...

Just a quick little update; as many of you know, either from us personally or the last blog entry, LaWanda has been seeing the doctors quite regularly. One appointment per week (normally on Tuesday morning) to a high-risk doctor who monitors both LaWanda's gestational diabetes, amniotic fluid levels, and Madison's size; with a second weekly appointment with her OB doctor (normally on Friday's). With this weeks visit to the OB, we received more info on the soon-to-be birth of our little girl.

Over the past few weeks, there has been a slight decrease in the amniotic fluid levels surrounding & protecting Madison. The OB now expects that there will be a 50% chance, with her Tuesday's visit, that the high-risk doctor will keep her in office & schedule Madison's birth that day based on what those readings may be. The chance during the next weekly visit would rise to about 85%; and if everything held out past that, the third week would be the limit & Madison would meet us face-to-face that same day!

So to put it in much easier terms...Madison will be here as soon as 3 days from now, and now longer than 2 weeks, 3 days. :D

 I know this is a short post, but I just had to share. Ok...now...time for me to get back to work - I now REALLY have to get everything ready!! Lol.
