Birthday

On New Year's Eve (12/31/07), Alex will be delivered by c-section. It is scheduled for 7:30am. I suspect it will be about 2 hours from that time that I will be in a room. I will be in the hospital at least 3 days so people will have plenty of time to visit. Right now, Patrick and I are trying to get loose ends tied up and enjoy our last 3 days together. If we need anything we'll call you.

Dr. Appt.

Everything went fine. I'm not dilated and his head is still under my ribs. I'm waiting for a secretary to call me about scheduling the c-section. She's off of work today and tomorrow and Patrick and I wanted the birthday to be before the new year. So, we'll see what happens.

Christmas Thanks

Thanks to all who gave us cash for Christmas. Patrick's radiator in his car broke and last night our dishwasher broke. We would have liked to have done something fun with the money, but a dependable car and a dishwasher are necessities. So, thanks for the $$$.

Dr. appointment

So I had another appointment yesterday and nothing major happened. Actually nothing happened at all. I weighed the same as last week, so yay!

Next week's appointment I'm going to ask about a due date/c-section date. It's getting so close and although we're ready, it's going to be crazy that it won't just be me and Patrick.

Dr. appointment

So, this doctor (different than the one I saw 2 weeks ago) said that it doesn't look like the baby will turn. Alex is hanging in there like he's in a hammock with his head under my right ribs and his feet under my left. He's going to be breech and I should prepare myself for a c-section.

I like this doctor the best because he's older and has experience with patients with bicornuate uteri (lol).

The earliest they'll schedule a c-section is a week before my due date. Since my due date is Jan. 6, I could still have a 2007 baby!! The doctor did keep stressing...unless you go into labor first. So if I don't go into labor, they'll schedule a c-section.

Patrick put up lights because he's such a good "daddy"!
