Thank you all for praying for us and the babies. We saw both of our babies today. We are tremendously grieved to tell you that our “Little Guy” appears to be slipping away from us. We don’t know the genders yet, but I feel like he’s a boy (ridiculous, I know). He’s only grown 1 week over the last 2 weeks, which puts him a full two weeks behind his twin. His heart rate is 138, which isn’t by itself super terrible, though it is low. But he has even less fluid around him than the first ultrasound, and he’s not as well formed or developed as the other baby. Most likely he will slip away from us over the coming weeks. Thankfully, this all can happen without harming the other baby, who, by the way is looking wonderful. The big baby (I feel it’s a girl, but it’s too soon to know) is measuring right on time, and moving and swimming as it should be. We could see it moving, waving and kicking today. Praise God for this favor. We don’t understand why our time here in Peru has been so full of challenges, but when we don’t get to know WHY, we are left with the question of “What now?” Please continue to pray for us as we grapple with this question.
Love,
Gillian on behalf of all of us.
