Please keep us in your thoughts, as we are expecting our 4th any day now. My lovely wife is scheduled to be induced on 2 Sept, but the butterflies in my stomach say otherwise!

congratulations on the new little freeper!

It seems like they will NEVER come out - but the day will come before you know it!

Prayers for a quick and healthy delivery for mom and baby (oh yeah..and for dad too! :) )

Ooh, Sept 2nd, a very nice day indeed :) We have two sons, the oldest is 11 and the youngest turns 9 on that day. Best wishes to you and yours!

Best wishes for a healthy baby. My daughter-in-law was induced for their third child and along with the epidural just about slept through the delivery. They sure do things differently now. Prayers for your family.

I can understand what you are going through. My third was a week late so they were going to induce labor the next day. I didn't want that, so cried in distress and prayed, all by myself. I woke up early in the morning in labor, and our son was born within an hour.

Maybe sometimes inducing labor is a good thing, I don't know, just didn't like the thought of it if it could have been avoided. It was just so common by then, much of it for the doctor's convenience it seemed, but partly for the safety of mother and baby.

Prayers for a safe delivery with no complications for Mom on God's timetable, not man's unless either goes into distress in which case we have options we didn't have in the past, fortunately.

Bearing a child is never without risk no matter what measures are taken; hence the worry.

That is great news, cardinal4! You have every reason to be thrilled -- keep us posted (You know! size, length, time of day/date, name, who she looks like, etc.)

May the Infant Jesus bring all to a healthy and happy end!

To: Tax-chick; everyone

Thank you everyone for the prayers, thoughts, and well wishes!! We’re terribly excited, and hoping she decides to make her appearance before Sept. 2nd. We’re all set here!

Mazel Tov on #4! I took our youngest ( and #4) to college down South last week. We're now 'empty nesters'! Don't know why folks get so angsty about it! ;o)

I'll keep your wife and the new bambino in my prayers!
