Counting The Days

So. Went to the doc again today. I tell you, it’s better to be late than on time because we never see the doctor on the time we have our appointment. I had to wait 2 hours before I saw her. But at least she is very nice and that Luci kept me company.

So. 36 weeks. Into the final stretch. Doc talked to me about my preferences about the birth (do I want epidural, want the hubby to cut the cord, etcetera, etcetera). She instructed on when I’m supposed to call when my contractions are into 5-7 minutes apart, or when my water broke, or whatever.

So. I thought about inducing. I actually mentioned it to her, and it’s because I didn’t want the baby to “wait” until June (certainly don’t want her birthdate to fall on 6/6/06 – eek), and I think 5/25 is a good birthday, right? We’ll see. I still have some time to think about it.

Oh yeah. Did I tell you that when Luci and I visited his mom last week and predicted my baby’s due date? She wanted to feel my belly so she could tell when. So. I let her do that and she said last week of July at least. I was horrified. I didn’t want to wait that long! I was ready to jump at her for telling me that, lol. I told her politely (though I wanted to scream, haha) that the baby’s due date is sooner than that. Anyways, it was funny.

So. I see the doc now every week. Also going to have another sonogram/ultrasound done. Exciting and nerve-wracking.

Counting the days. I have 12 more days to work also. Counting the days.
