It's almost time

Yesterday I was praying for wisdom. Is it better to just wait and have a big baby and let her come in God's timing? Or should I rely on the medical knowledge, advances and technology that God has given doctors the opportunity to put in place and go ahead and induce labor, as had been recommended? The more I thought about it, the more stressed out I got.
Up to that point, inducing had been a "suggestion" and everyone seemed to be leaving it up to us to decide. That is just not a decision I want to screw up on, you know? As I thought more about it, my prayer changed. I still prayed for wisdom for Andy and I - but more so for our doctor that we would be seeing yesterday, Dr. Gamm. I prayed that instead of leaving it up for discussion and giving us multiple options, He would guide her in what needs to take place and just lay it out for us. With that being said, I still had this nagging urge in the back of my mind that I wanted to give her just a little bit more time in case she decides to come out on her own.
When we saw Dr. Gamm she checked me out and determined that I was NO closer to labor. She immediately told us it's time and she wanted to induce... like maybe tonight (last night). That shocked me a little - partly because it seemed sudden, but more so because it was a direct instruction (and a direct answer to my prayer). Then she said "Well, tonight or Friday... I'll call the hospital and schedule it and let you know." She told us those were the days she is on call and she wants to be the one to deliver her - which is why it was going to be one of those two days. She came back and told us Friday is the day! We will be going to the hospital Thursday night and starting the process at midnight.
I feel like God directly put His hand on us yesterday - he answered so many different facets of the prayer. He provided us with wisdom in how to pray; He gave Dr. Gamm the words that we needed to hear; He had her lay out a very specific plan without making us choose from too many options; He's giving the baby a couple more days just in case (which may be more for my peace of mind - but I'm still thankful). He is so good to us.
I barely slept last night because I couldn't stop thinking about everything. I know that isn't good - I need to get rest, but it wasn't stressful thinking. It was more like amazement that this is really happening and thinking through what the next few days will include. It's definitely excitement about what is coming. And it's peace that it is being directly orchestrated by the Lord.
If I can request prayer over the next couple days, I would like to ask you to pray with me over a few things. First and foremost, to keep the baby safe and healthy for these last few hours before the trauma of birth has to take place in her little life. :) Secondly, for my blood sugar to remain within reasonable numbers - it has been high today and I'm sure it's from all of the excitement and lack of sleep. Third, pray for Andy and I as we prepare for this change in our lives and add this joy to our days - and that we can comfort each other properly throughout the process.
Oh, yeah... if you have extra time, maybe throw in a side prayer that I can get some of these last-minute projects done today and tomorrow. :)
Not much longer now...
