Got a call at 6:48am from the hospital to say that they are booked! They said they'd call "in a few hours" when they knew when/ if they could get us in. Mind you, I was already whining about not being able to eat until after my originally scheduled 10:30 delivery.
At the command of my sister, I called the hospital about 10am and was told we are now on the schedule for 5pm! That means I have 4 hours from now until the hospital will even check me in. The lady I spoke with (at 10am) said I could have clear liquids until 10:30 - chicken broth, jello, water...how generous! I didn't even bother.
Yes, I'm hungry, tired, anxious and thinking to myself that Lily Kate should be here already. Wondering what God knows about this timing that I don't.
Isn't this how it happens when you feel like you've got all your chickens in a row and are prepared for something? God just reminds you that HE is in control. Going to go plan my first meal once I can be back on solids...McDonalds, Chik-Fil-A......

I was the SAME way with food...couldn't eat anything until 7pm since our admit time kept getting pushed back (except a few cheetos I snuck)...Chik-fil-a was mine!!!
So sorry you're having to wait a little longer. Can't wait to hear news tonight!!
Ugh! What a pain. I've been thinking of you all morning and I'd be lying if I'm not a little jealous that at least you'll {hopefully} have your baby girl in your arms by the end of the day. Our sweet girl is taking her precious time to make her arrival. Tomorrow is her due date and I can't help but be disappointed that she's not here already. How impatient am I? That's despite me telling God this morning that I trusted in His timing. Lord, help us to be patient!
Well, at least now I can sneak in a few more prayers for Lily Kate before her delivery. :)
I've been checking and re-checking this all day, praying that Lily Kate's arrival has already happened RIGHT NOW and that you're both safe, sound and healthy, healthy, healthy!
