Still waiting

She’s still pregnant. Thank goodness.

And while the hourly ups and downs, including zingers like “we need to deliver you today” (now heard appx. every 18 hours) and “we are concerned about your liver failing” are nearly impossible for even my sister and her husband to keep track of,  as of right now, those babies are still just where they want to be.

Thank you, H & W readers, for your kind thoughts, words and prayers. It’s working.

Got any suggestions for a name for each of these cherubs?  Jumper and Dancer not currently under consideration, though they would evidently be appropriate names.

    Keeping my fingers crossed that they hang out where they are for a bit. No rush yet. We can all wait to see pictures of them. Sending your sister my thoughts…Jackson and Wyatt can wait longer to meet fellow twins.

    Hi Anna. Sorry to hear your sister is in the hospital and we will pray that the babies can stay in longer and that mom’s body can be strong and hold on.

    It’s so scary to have those kinds of pregnancy complications. I had some of my own, but the doctors and hospital were wonderful and my baby and I are now healthy. I wish the same for your sister.

    I am so glad to hear that she is still doing okay — tell her to keep hanging in there!
