Rebekah did not deliver last night as anticipated. The vitals for the baby (a girl, by the way, already named Eden Grace) are holding steady and Rebekah's symptoms have lessened since yesterday, so they are still trying to extend the pregnancy. They are taking labwork on her every six hours. The doc who was just in said that every day in the womb lessens the baby's stay in NICU by 2 days, and of course is valuable for the baby's development. Robin and I were in the room for today's ultrasound, and the doc estimated the baby's weight at 3.5 lbs., which is a lot better than what I had picked up from Wikipedia.
Josh's and Rebekah's church is showering them with love and prayer.
The kids' apartment doesn't have internet service right now, so I'll be emailing and updating from the hospital.
Thanks for praying. Keep it up.
