Exclamation

I Have My Date!!


Well, just got back from the doctors.
My cervix still isn't doing anything, however my doc wants to go ahead with an induction this week.
He is afraid that if we wait until next week to see if my cervix is going to start doing something on its own, with the size of the baby compared to my size, its a huge possibility that I will end up having a c-section. Especially since the baby is only going to continue putting on weight.
So, he said that even though my cervix isn't doing anything; there is a better chance that we can get labor started and deliver vaginally with him weighing less, than with him weighing more.
He said that I am still at a high risk of a c-section since my cervix still isn't doing anything and the baby is kinda big. But if we try sooner than later the risk is less, and we are going to really try vaginally before just jumping into a section.
So.. he told me that I am going to come in the night before and get the medicine started since my cervix isn't doing anything yet, and will probably give birth sometime the next day.
I'm going in Wednesday at 4! Wish me luck!

Yeah! I'm too excited! Cannot wait to see what he looks like! How much hair he has! The chubby little legs the nurse said he had!! AHHH! I'm going to drive myself nuts!!

Only thing that sucks is this is the WORST week! I have two online classes ending this week, which means FINALS! I dont know how I am expected to concentrate enough to get two finals done whilst thinking about my LO coming so soon!
