Prayer for Ashlie and baby!!

Ashlie was admitted to the hospital today for pre-mature labor. She's not actually in labor yet, but her body is producing symptoms and reacting as though the baby should be coming out when its not. She is at 27 weeks right now and she is 3cm dialated. They are giving her indocin to slow the labor contraction and steriods to promote the necessary developments for the baby. As of right now, the sac around the baby is perfectly in tact and baby is doing good. There are milestones that the doctors would like to hit for baby development. These weeks from now until 34 weeks are crucial for part of the brain, lung, and heart developments. She is at Centennial hospital in Frisco and will be there until the baby is born. This could be 1 week - a couple months. Hopefully it will be a couple months for the baby's development. Please pray for the health of Ashlie and Payton (baby) through this time.
