P2 Update!

I went in for my second non stress test today.
While I was there I expressed to the nurse that I was starting to feel like maybe my original due date was the correct one (January 19Th).
She instantly started doing some calculations and agreed and then spoke to one of the midwives who confirmed..........ugh.
Apparently the ultrasound that they did when I was only 8 weeks along is a much better calculation of the age of the baby then the one you get at 20 some weeks (which is when they changed my due date)!
So, why is it they moved my due date up by two weeks? I have no idea. Well, I do, but it's really not worth explaining other than I think this baby might be bigger than Ren.
So, my new due date is this Friday the 18Th.
Besides all this fun news I had been battling a horrendous toothache that ended up being a root canal which I had done this morning before going to my second false non stress test! After that we got to pick up our car from the shop since our brake line went kaput.
Through all this though I am thankful. I am thankful that we are all healthy, I am thankful to have David and Ren and this package riding on me. I am thankful for great family and wonderful friends and I know that God has the right timing for this child. I'm also thankful for Tylenol with Codeine which is a wonderful drug when you are coming off a root canal!

Thank you for any and all prayers and please keep them coming. My next appt. is Monday, but hopefully the next P2 update will be a picture of her.

...root canal?...classic.
each of my kids gave me a root canal at the end of their 9 mo. terms.
what a relief that the due date was wrong for P2.
...you poor thing, hang in there, i'll stay faithful in prayer for you. you are doing so well.
