You'll use a shield or you'll pump and bottle feed for a little while until he's up to it, or *gasp* you'll supplement with a little formula for a bit b/c despite how much you want to breastfeed, you want him to be healthy and gain weight. It's not the end of the world. I know you have an plan in mind of how you want things to work out, but God laughs. Everything you <I>thought</I> or <I>knew</I> you were going to do is getting ready to going to go flying out the window and life will be by the seat of your pants--and it's WONDERFUL! And this is coming from me-Super Type A. :) You will be fine and your little boy will be fine.Katiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11096956587784336808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-40091776792024514212009-02-24T21:57:00.000-05:002009-02-24T21:57:00.000-05:00Well, here's a little more reassurance about the w...Well, here's a little more reassurance about the weight...Hannah was 3 weeks early and they said she would only be 6 lbs and she weighed 8 lbs 7 oz! <BR/>I am praying for His peace for you sweet Patrice...and rest in the coming days to prepare you for sweet baby boy! <BR/>Tell Matt to be careful and I'm praying he's not in too much pain...<BR/>God bless you both with His care!<BR/>Aimee PenceAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-65612946489952469052009-02-24T21:54:00.000-05:002009-02-24T21:54:00.000-05:00I heard this verse on the radio this morning relat...I heard this verse on the radio this morning related to how we handle times of change or uncertainty. It ministered to me and I thought it might do the same for you:<BR/><BR/>Deuteronomy 31:6 (TNIV)<BR/>6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you." <BR/><BR/>This is such a wonderful promise from God that I hope you can cling to in the next few days. <BR/><BR/>We'll continue to be praying! <BR/><BR/>And poor Matt, he will never live down the fact that he got out of the first few weeks of diapers!!<BR/><BR/>Love you guys!LeeAnnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09721277914617939993noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-40656537396438751592009-02-24T21:33:00.000-05:002009-02-24T21:33:00.000-05:00we could twitter it, too. you can update that via ...we could twitter it, too. you can update that via cell phone. i'm already hooked up to that and love it for quick updates.Laurenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06326031737688016062noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-41635211758943847032009-02-24T21:25:00.000-05:002009-02-24T21:25:00.000-05:00I've never been induced, so I don't know what it f...I've never been induced, so I don't know what it feels like to KNOW it's going to happen at an exact time. But having done it three times, I can tell you that I felt the same way you do through what I thought were the last days or so of each pregnancy. In other words, I think you'd be having a mix of fear, excitement, wonder, apprehension, crazy dreams, etc., even if you hadn't had your experience with Gabe. I had three similar pregnancies with three strikingly different deliveries, all three good and bad in their own ways. I pray that this will be a magnificent experience for you, that it will glorify the Lord and honor Gabe and his memory, that you will feel a renewed peace each moment as you navigate the days and hours left before you head to the hospital. I pray that the Lord will watch over you and the medical team that will be leading you through this life-changing experience, and that He will bless you with the freedom to feel all the happiness you will naturally want to feel as you deliver this new, little, precious life into the world. You and Matt are going to be amazing parents, and I can't wait to meet Little One once he arrives. We love you so much!Katherine @ Grass Stainshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01258123193553569060noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-68577634078009925682009-02-24T21:24:00.000-05:002009-02-24T21:24:00.000-05:00Your in our hearts and prayers!!!

Everything will go smooth I can just feel it :) I breastfed all 4 of mine and the first few days with each one of them were a bit trying but only because they each had to get into their own groove with me. It will all be good and you can do it!!! You are in my prayers and I will keep you and your family there!<BR/><BR/>Hearts and Hugs<BR/>The Wimsett'sj3khttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01912074509536294543noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-24664576074331055782009-02-24T20:54:00.000-05:002009-02-24T20:54:00.000-05:00They guessed Asher to be a pound less than he came...They guessed Asher to be a pound less than he came out weighing.

What a hoot that is! If it makes you feel any better, they "guessed" Seth to weigh 8 lbs. You know how much he weighed! Also, do not get discouraged about breastfeeding when you have not tried it yet. Formula is not such a bad thing anyway--we had to supplement with it, and yes it is expensive, but you do what you have to do! We love you and are anxiously awaiting your new arrival. I hate that Matt broke his wrist...of all weeks!! You are all on our minds and our hearts. Good luck and sleep well the next few days!brightleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16218131780160985679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8191367444095035928.post-74525423756223323702009-02-24T19:23:00.000-05:002009-02-24T19:23:00.000-05:00Just wanted you to know that I'm still praying for...Just wanted you to know that I'm still praying for you and baby!
