Sonogram Results

We had our sonogram today and it was wonderful to see her (thank goodness Abby is still a girl!)and even more wonderful to hear all of the healthy statistics she currently bears. She is face down, looking back and has a little bit of hair. We were able to see her lungs moving showing breathing, her heart beating, and her fingers, toes, arms and legs all moving. Her organs were all in place and normal.
In terms of her size, Dr. Darby and the technician said around 8 pounds, maybe 8.5 pounds. They didn't see any medical reason for us to induce this week and recommended we await her arrival. As much as I want to control this, I am going to sit back and let God decide when our child will be born. It occurred to me that she is His child as well and if He wants to give her to us for Christmas, then we should not try to take that away from Him.
If she doesn't come on her own, we will go in on 12/29 and induce for safety reasons.
