Had a great MD appointment today. Lisa (my sis) went with me since she is back-up in case Chuck needs help during L&D. Doctor decided to do another ultrasound today and we got to see her, although she was being a little stinker and wouldn't show her face. She kept her arms up over her face the whole time, but she is growing, rapidly! Her belly was poked out there, fat & sassy, as my late grandmother would say! My blood pressure was still perfect and I've lost another pound. Doctor isn't concerned b/c I am eating all I can, I'm not skimping! Baby is just getting everything I eat. I go back in 2 weeks, on Oct 2nd, the day before my shower. Doctor said I would come again in another 2 weeks and then mid-October I would begin weekly appts and she would doing exams at that point to check for dilation and cervix placement, etc. It's getting close and the nerves are building. She did share an interesting thing with me today. I asked if there was any way to tell if I'd be able to deliver vaginally or if a C-Section would be necessary, as I was told many years ago that a vaginal delivery may be impossible, due to a malformation or something I have "down there". And she said that my pelvic bone is shaped in an odd direction and that vaginal may be difficult, however it hasn't been checked in a couple of years and with age, hormones, and pregnancy, that all could be totally changed and she would know more when she does a pelvic exam in late October, and will know more as to what we may could prepare for. Please pray that vaginal delivery is possible, although C-section isn't the most horrible thing in the world, I really want to have a vaginal delivery. I really want to experience it all, even though the thought scares the crap out of me all at the same time! I want the best for my baby and me and God has it all in His plan!
As of this point, we are about 2 months away from Birth Day! Shower is weekend after next. I can't for either but I am not wishing my days away. I'm enjoying every single one!!!
