1 day left!!

Taken the day before I was going to the hospital (I look so gross!!!)

Well, I have 1 day left until I check into the hospital for my induction for the little peanut! We are getting excited, yet nervous at the same time! I had the sonogram last week which confirmed that the baby was 8lbs 6ozs. The Dr. I spoke with (since mine was on vacay) said that I would probably have to have a C-Section since the baby was so big! Of course I started freaking out and crying my eyes out!

I saw Dr. White today and told her what the other Dr. said, and she said that ultimately, it's my decision on what I want to do. This did not help me make my decision any easier. I wanted her to make a suggestion on what she thought I should do. After talking it over with her, and Gilbert, we decided that I was going to try regular delivery and not just elect the C-Section. Gilbert's theory is that it's been a normal pregnancy, so it should be a normal delivery. So we'll see how that theory pans out! haha

My induction date is scheduled!

So I went to the Dr. today, and I am going to be induced next Thursday 5/1/08. I am already 2cm dilated, so the Dr. said I am doing really good! That is good news. Now I am getting nervous! I am not scared about the epidural, or the IV, or even taking the baby home...I am worried about the pushing! It's scary the unknown aspect! Oh well, what went in must come out! hahaha

I have a sonogram this afternoon to confirm the baby's weight, so I will post that too to keep everyone updated.

I'm getting closer.....

So just wanted to provide an update...I went to the Dr. last Weds., and she said that at my next appointment (this Weds.) we could talk about inducing me in 3 weeks!!! I am very excited not only because I can get this over with, but that she will be delivering my baby and not some other Dr. in the practice!!! I am really pleased by this fact! I will keep my blog updated with the information on the exact date!!!
