The Word Made Flesh October 24-25, 2014. >BR>
It's 32 weeks into the pregnancy of our baby girl. She's up to 4 pounds. Just like St. John in the first chapter of the gospel of Luke, she's leaping for joy. But there is an issue. Today, good pre-natal care watches the mother's vitals, and about this time in the pregnancy, many women get put on bed rest for fear of high blood pressure- also known as preclampsia. Just as a precaution, our little girl's mother has been put on bed rest. Her due date remains the same however, the birthday of Our Lord, December 25, 2015.
