To start, I was there for a good hour and a half, normally it takes all of 20 minutes. Thankfully Cam came & was the snack keeper for the girls. But I didn't pack nearly enough crackers & water for such a long visit. Who knew! Ok, seriously now. For those that are done reading, a quick summary of the apt, this is a big boy for his "age" & the two doctors I saw could not settle on how big he's measuring...yikes!
The first mid-wife came in, did her normal thing & when she measured my belly she said, oh we're looking at 39 weeks. Say what? I'm suppose to only be 36....The second mid-wife comes in, I'm 39 weeks, no wait, he's moving around, 38 weeks, or, I'm not so sure how big this boy is measuring...After the two discussed for some time the movement of the baby, the "age" our Boo is suppose to be versus the "age" he is measuring they decided, I NEED ANOTHER ULTRASOUND! They want a technician to do a better guess at the size/weight of our Boo. Sounds good to me, so far. The part that I didn't enjoy was the next discussion, a possible C-Section. Now anyone who was around when I received the devastating news of needing a C for Cami, I'm almost as upset this time. The only reason the mid-wife brought this up is if this baby is so big it may be in our (his & mine) best interest to have another C. But, before I schedule a date for this I'm waiting for my ultrasound. I am praying for God's will in this situation. Please join me. I should know by tomorrow when my ultrasound is scheduled for (they say between now & the 14th). I'll update again with the apt info.
Sorry this post isn't better written but it's all news I didn't expect to receive yesterday. Oh and for those mama's out there wanting to know the gritty details, I'm not dialated & still at a -3 station. bummer!
(please excuse the un-edited photo, Cam bought me an awesome new photo editing program & I have yet to read the book...)
