We had the amniocentesis done today, and the results showed that Brody's lungs are not mature. Therefore, he will not be delivered tomorrow. We are disappointed to have to wait longer to meet him, but we don't want him to be here before he is ready. If the results mean anything to you, they said his score was 22 and it has to be 55 to show that the lungs are mature. The nurse said that it usually goes up 3-7 points per day. So hopefully, Brody will be ready in around a week. We will just wait to see. We look forward to meeting him soon!

3 More Days???
It might only be 3 more days until we meet Brody. We will have an amniocentesis on Thursday morning to check on his lung development. Pending those results, the c-section is scheduled for Friday at 3:30. We look forward to meeting him very soon!

Fun in the Snow!
Brennan and Branton had a great time playing in the snow with Daddy at our house and then sledding at Grandma and Grandpa's house.

32 weeks
Dr. Breit plans to deliver Brody on February 28 (39 weeks) if he does not come before. So only 7 more weeks! According to BabyCenter.com, the average baby weighs about 3.75 lbs and is 16.7 inches long at this point. Mommy's belly is definitely growing! Here is a picture from yesterday.
