Daughter pregnancy complication

My daughter Jennifer is 36 weeks pregnant. She is 40 years old. This is her 3rd pregnancy/child. She is at the hospital. The baby’s heart rate isn’t going up under a stress test, and even went down. They are deeply concerned, so they are monitoring the baby’s heart beat and may have to induce labor today. We are 400 some miles away and had planned to be there when the baby was due. Please pray for our daughter and for her baby Silas James. The Lord encouraged me with this song:

 
Update at 2:12 p.m.: The doc at the hospital scheduled an ultrasound to check on the baby. My daughter wrote this 44 minutes ago:

“In the extra time we waited on doc the baby started doing much better. Doc did ultrasound, and everything looks good! They are sending me home. Yay! Praise the Lord!”

I ditto the “Yay!” and the “Praise the Lord!” And, I added some tears of joy on top. :)

Also, I would like to add that this baby’s name is Silas James. Silas was Paul’s helper and a fellow apostle of Christ. James is another name for Jacob, and Jacob, in the Bible, became Israel, and Israel (spiritually speaking) is now the church, so this is like saying the helper of the church, who we know is the Holy Spirit.

Anyway, I can’t help but feel that Satan might be fighting against this child, and so I would ask for your continued prayers for his strengthening. Thank you!
 
Greetings,

how is young Silas and Jennifer?

Keep us updated!


Bless you and yours ....><>

Thank you, Brother Bear, for asking. Jennifer is doing well, as is baby Silas. He is now more active in his mother's womb, so things are progressing as they should.

My daughter and her husband just had a house built by the local high school under the direction of a building contractor, and they just closed on their property and secured their loan, so all this has been going on during my daughter's pregnancy, as she has been working hard to make sure all the things necessary for getting land and approvals and estimates and such have all taken place in order for them to now be able to arrange for their new home to be moved to the property they have now purchased.

The day that she ended up at the hospital was the day right after a full day of running all over town with two kids in tow, one of which threw up in her car seat, while they tried to take care of a bunch of last minute business for this closing. So, that may have been the trigger. So, the plan is to move into the house about the time that the baby is ready to be born, so that is a lot for her to take on all at once. Lord willing, we will travel down there soon to help out with all the transitions.
 
Jennifer just called me. Her water broke, so they are on their way to the hospital. We are over 400 miles away from them, so we will not be there for the delivery. Please pray for a safe delivery for her and for Silas. Thank you so much!
