Excitement and more prayer

It's Shelly again!

Brittany just called me and said that they're heading to the O.R. This is a good thing, it means she's fully dilated and ready to deliver those angels!

She's still in quite a bit of pain with her ribs; her chiropractor came to the hospital and worked on her neck and other accident related issues. She said that Brittany's ribs are most likely cracked on the right side. Not sure about her chest yet.

Lets pray for a miracle healing of those ribs! Also, after baby A is delivered, there is still a good chance for baby B (who is currently head down) to turn again. Let's also pray that baby B doesn't budge and pops out in the right direction! Let's also thank our Lord that the accident was no worse than it was and that we will soon be greeting the evidence of a miracle! We serve an awesome God!

Praying! And WOW, what a birth story this is going to be!

Christina said...

Prayers going up for all! My sister had twins born at 35 weeks...and after a few initial concerns, they are now healthy, vibrant little girls!

Kerry Lynn said...

Wow. What a scary ordeal! THANK GOD you are all ok. My biggest fear was being in an accident while pregnant with my twins.
35 weeks is a perfectly fine gestation. I have a feeling they won't even need any NICU time.
I can't wait to hear the news!

Wishing you all the best. Just FYI for your baby book of what happened on the day your babies were born. Shawn Johnson just won Gold on the Balance Beam!!!

Julie said...

Wow! What a lot you have going on and a ton of different emotions, too. Thank God you are OK and I pray for your whole family and the two new ones. God keep you!

4under3 said...

I can't believe this. The babies might be born right now. Ahhh. The intensity of this all is almost more than I can handle.

I'm praying for fully developed lungs for these bundles. And for no pain in the rib department.

Brittney tonite I pray that you will be healed miraculously during your labor. I life up those wonderful babes that they may develop at an amazing rate as to not need NICU attention and you could have those first moemtns with them. I pray peace upon your spirit as you deliver in an unusual place...I pray that through your eyes it seems a comfortable calm warm environment and your focus would not be moved. I am lifting you up tonite as you welcome your long awaited babes...

Anonymous said...

I'm excited, I hope all goes well in the delievery and I'm looking forward to meeting the new bubs. Sending love, thoughts and prayers from Sydney, Australia :)

Runningamuck said...

Praying for you all! Can't help but be excited for you both even under the circumstances. Praying that God will meet all your needs and give you peace and comfort during the next few hair-raising hours. That the rib-pain disappears during delivery and that Baby B stays in just the right position so that s/he can follow Baby A right on out. =0)

mamatutwo said...

I'm praying for you tonight! God bless you and your whole sweet family!

Jennisa said...

Oh, I give up...it's midnight, and I can't keep my eyes open another second!!!! I'll anxiously check first thing in the morning! Praying for you and your babes!

Rookie SAHM said...

Oh my! I was just checking at the end of the day as usual and cannot believe what had happened.

My prayers are to Brittany and the babies. I hope she can take her little angels in her arms without too much pain and baby B cooperates. I hope everyone will be home in good health soon.

Magoon Family said...

Ok, so I get up this morning and there is NO update (ahhhh). I thought I would see this story of the birth and if those little ones are boys or girls. I am waiting....LOL

Kelli said...

I praise God right now for bringing healthy babies into the world after such a scary experience. I pray for strength and healing. Remember that God is good, all the time!

Laura said...

I am hoping we haven't heard anything because Brittany wants to announce this wondrous event in her own way when she can, but I am concerned about if everything is ok, anxiously awaiting just to hear all is well!!

Kathryn said...

Praying everything turned out beautifully. :)
