8 more days... then BAM!

Well my friends :) If you didn't know already we have an induction date set for April 28th if these little ones don't come on their own before that. I have mixed feelings about being induced... i really want these little babies to come when they are ready to come and not be forced to make an early entrance... they say that full term for twins is 37 weeks and i will be passed that so that seems ok to me... and my doc, Dr. Adolph (whom i love btw) will be the one to induce (if we get that far) which i am happy about because she is going to be leaving for a while and i really am wanting her to be the deliverer. Ha! so that is good too... but there's just that little ...thing... in the back of my mind that says, babies should come when they are ready.. however - man, can you tell i'm going around and around about this???- i realize with high-risk pregnancies, such as twins, there are risks with babies being in too long or too short.. so i'll just leave it up to the pros and continue praying. :).... ooh that's another thing i had better mention. Josh and i  are sooooo super grateful to Heavenly Father for many things of coarse but especially for this one thing inparticular that we have been praying for since we found out twins had been assigned to us... we've been praying that i would be able to have a natural delivery, which i've always (well always in a sense of the word) wanted to be able to experience, especially for my first delivery. When i told Dr. Adolph at my first appt with her that i did not want a c-section, she kinda looked at me and said, "I am going to deliver healthy babies, and what ever way i have to do that is the way i'm gunna do it." ... i thought that was a pretty darn good answer, and thought how could i have been so selfish? Anyways.... she said that the best circumstance for a natural delivery with, especially with twins, is that both the babies present head down. So, that is what we've been praying for just about every night, and you know what? Let me tell you... both babies are head down and we are planning for a natural delivery. It's nice to know that Heavenly Father cares about each of us and will allow some of our righteous desires to happen. :)
