Want to make God laugh? Tell Him your plans.

I'm presently sitting in the hospital hooked up to an IV and antibiotics. We are scheduled to go back to the OR in about 30 minutes.
I started leaking fluids around 3:00 this morning so I did what any other second time mom would do in this situation...I went out to the kitchen, poured myself a big ol' bowl of Reece's Puffs :) I wasn't contracting out of the norm, so I didn't think any need to wake up poor Dr. Holly (the man who barely sleeps as it is) so I left a message for him at his office. He called me this morning and asked me to come in for a check. I was dilated 1 cm and 50% effaced so he sent me in for an ultrasound.
The ultrasound showed that I have lost most of my amniotic fluid and that Adler is breach. Dr. Holly and Dr. Wheeler consulted and sent me in for a C-section. Never would I have thought this was going to happen today...or any day for that matter. My gut was telling me that I was going to have a full term, plump little man. But, like the title of this post says....
Although I have my game face on, to tell the truth I'm a wee bit nervous. I just PRAY he is healthy and doesn't have to spend one second in the NICU. Brad and I can't wait to meet Adler John!! I can't believe that we will soon (and I mean soon) be a family of four!!!
We'll post photos as soon as we can.
Thank you for ALL the prayers and support!
