The 1st due date- Angie Tolpin

The 1st due date-

Today was the first due date given that I would meet our son for the first time… and here I am… no change… Since I have NEVER gone over due… had 2 babies on their due dates… and two 11 days early… and one daughter 13 days early…. I am in a bit of nervous uncharted territory! I tend to have big babies… no really BIG babies…

Here is the run down… Kelsey (8.5lb-due date)… Austin (8.3lbs-11 days early)… Megan (7.9lbs-13 days early)… Drew (9.7 lbs-11 days early)… Luke (9lbs 10 oz- due date- posterior)… so now I am almost overdue and getting SCARED! Please be praying for me as I feel like I can hardly breathe he is so big in there! I have not really experienced this “done- can’t move- can’t wear pants- can’t breathe very well” feeling before. I am trying to have a positive attitude and focus on the goodness of God and that the baby will come in God’s good timing… but I REALLY wish I had him last week!

I can tell this morning he is in a posterior position again as well! Please pray for him to turn and for the delivery to go smoothly. May Jesus Christ be glorified in me and through me as I need His help to “bring forth man.” I covet all your prayers! Thank you
