The amnio went fine this morning but the results came back that the lungs were not mature enough to do the c-section this week. We're quite puzzled about this since Ellie was born at 37 weeks with fine lungs, but who knows.
This throws all our plans out the window, as they won't repeat the amnio until next week Monday, putting a possible c-section date closer to 38 weeks, which is past the gestation I went with Ellie. Maybe I'll make it until then, otherwise we will be having an emergency c-section if I go into labor.
Trusting in His plan...

It's normal for baby's lungs to not be mature at 37 weeks. Good luck to you!

So sorry, Emily! All this waiting has got to be frustrating. We'll be praying that baby girl hangs in there another week so you won't have to have an emergency c-section.
