Baby Brady is Trying to make an early Entry into the World

I am starting this blog for the Barr family to help relay information as things progress.

Karissa is 24 weeks and 2 days along carrying Brady Barr. I guess he started being a Barr already and decided to add some excitement to the world a bit sooner than all had anticipated. Karissa’s membranes (water) ruptured this morning while she was on her regular walk. They went directly to the hospital, which is where she is now.

Currently the situation is as follows. She is on complete bed rest. She is having some intermittent contractions but they are trying at this point to stop them. She is dilated a little bit but not much at this point. They have given her a steroid injection to help Brady’s lung development. So now we sit and wait. Pray for each hour and day that he can remain inside Karissa.

They are monitoring her very closely and told her that she will remain in the hospital until Brady is born.

Unfortunately Brady wanted to make another statement, as he is breech!! They will need to take him c-section when the time arises. The hopes are to keep him inside at least until Thurs or Friday. Even longer if possible!!!

Please pray for the whole Barr Family right now. Pray for Brady to stay inside until his time is here, hopefully several days from now. Each day is a blessing at this point.

I will be flying out there tomorrow. I will do my best to keep this posted with as many updates as possible.

As many of you know me I cannot type worth beans so please excuse my spelling and punctuation.

God Bless,
