Family update

Well, all the tests have come back and for now Jody gets to do her bed rest at home! The doctors will be doing this test they ran today called a "fetal fibro nectin" (I think that is how it is spelled) which is done on higher-risk mothers. As long as the results keep coming back negative, then Jody can stay at home for her bed rest. If the test at any time goes positive, then she will most likely spend the remainder of her pregnancy in the hospital.

Thank you for your prayers.

Brian and Family,

Praying for Jody that her contractions will cease! So glad to hear that you are having a girl! Aaron and I had our 2 boys first, and then God decided we needed a little spice added to our life. She is our spunky one. There is a blog that you need to read. The address is www.cfhusband.blogspot.com. She has cystic fibrosis. She was waiting for a double lung transplant when they found out she was pregnant. She delivered her baby last week at 24 weeks. Gwyneth weighed 1 lb. 6 ozs. The pictures of the baby are amazing. And she is doing well. I think you would enjoy seeing this little miracle. May you have a good uneventful weekend! Take care,

Aaron and Amy (Saunders) Hager
