She's Home

Stephanie and Marshall went home today. Pray for the transition home to go well.

There's a New Marshall in Town

Click here to view pictures of him. I will post more here later. :)

Marshall Truman

Marshall Truman Myhrer was born at 9:16 last night via c-section. He weighed 8# 5.1 oz and was 19 1/2" long. Mom and baby are doing great.

I am not able to upload pics at this time, but I will run to the library and upload there. :)

Thank you for all your prayers.

He's HERE!

Baby Boy Myhrer is here!!!!! Stephanie had to have a c-section around 9:00 this evening. Thanks for all your prayers. More info to come soon!

Two Minutes Apart

I just talked to mom who heard from Troy's dad that at 4:30 Stephanie's contractions were 2 minutes apart. Still no word--just waiting for the phone to ring letting us know that the baby is here.

Patiently Waiting

I haven't heard boo from Stephanie or Troy today, so maybe today is the day..... I will post when I know something. I really want to call the hospital, but she will call when the baby is here. :) If you want to read about the last week for Stephanie scroll down and click on Snickelfritz or click here.. :)

180/101

Thank goodness Stephanie is going in daily. Her blood pressure was good this morning at her appointment. They sent her home and said that she was doing great. They canceled all the inductions they talked about yesterday. They instructed her to come back this afternoon and get it checked again... 180/101!!!! She is now being monitored in the hospital and they did do the cervical induction. She just texted me to let me know her blood pressure is 118/64 as of 9:30 tonight. She said it hasn't been that low in several months. I am hoping this cervical inductions gets things going. I will only hear from her tomorrow if she goes home. She will call me after Snickelfritz is here. Thank you for your prayers.

Snickelfritz

I talked to Stephanie this am. Her appointment went well..still dilated to 3 and 70% effaced. They did more lab work and that came back fine. Her blood pressure is okay. She has another appointment tomorrow morning. They are going to do a "cervical induction" tomorrow at 5:00 pm. I think this is also called stripping the membranes. It works well for some and not at all for others. If it doesn't work, she will be induced on Friday. I am SO excited for them!

You can also pray for Troy's family as his grandpa (mom's dad) isn't expected to live past this next weekend.

30 Days

Kendra hasn't eaten fuzz in 30 days!!! I can't believe that packing away her fleece blankets would have such a huge impact. I feel like a bad mom for not thinking of doing that. A lady at church suggested it. Swallowing pride and moving on.

Better

Stephanie had another appointment today. Her labs came back fine, her BP is better, and they sent her home. Time will tell. :)

Update on Stephanie

Ok so she just called. She is dilated to 3 and 70% effaced. Her BP is ok--the top number is fine, but the bottom is high. The MD was too concerned. They ran blood work and the MD will call later with the results....yep they sent her home. She is to come in every day until the baby is born.

I have combined all my piano students to come today, so I can be ready to go tomorrow if it happens. Our family appreciates your prayers for Stephanie, Snickelfritz, and Troy.

Pray for Stephanie

Good morning. I would ask that you lift my sister up in prayer this am. She is 39 weeks and on bed rest. She had an appointment at 10:00 this morning, so more details later.
