Up or Down: What will it be?

So right now we just don't know if I'll have to have a c-section or if I'll be able to deliver naturally. Daniel Peter, at almost 38 weeks, continues to flip from being bottom-down to head-down every few days! At 32 weeks he was breech, then at 34 head-down, at 36 breech, at 37 head-down and now tomorrow, at 38, we will have to see! Earlier this week I was convinced that he was breech again because I could feel his hiccups close to my stomach but then this morning, I felt them way down! I hope he is head-down again and stays there because the bigger he gets, the less likely he’ll be able to flip. But I’ve already prepared myself that I just will not know until the end what kind of delivery I will have and that the most important thing is that he will be healthy and coming home soon!

Is this a sign of what he will be like? :-) I think God is preparing me for the reality of parenting even before he arrives: you just don’t have as much control as you would want over your child’s life and you must take one day at a time, trusting in God’s sovereignty and goodness.

Anyway, soon we will find out which way it will be… Can’t wait!
