We have a lot to cover.
I was right that the baby had in deed moved, unfortunately it was from my right to my left side, not the move we were all looking for.
Cody went with me to Wednesdays appointment so he could get some answers about c sections and why I had to have one. Those of you who recall my past experiences with DR.L already know things are headed downhill FAST!
We go to the ultrasound, the only hiccup there was I was offered to travel with a cup of pee again, I assured her I could make more before I was to see the doctor and that it would not be necessary for me to walk around with a cup of pee. This is also the only time in my life I have had to check in with people to tell them I had to pee so they can direct me to a cup, I will be glad when going to the bathroom consists only of notifying myself.
After being informed the baby is still breech, and still has her cord around her neck we get fun news she has a full head of hair and I actually get to see it on the ultrasound......amazing.
Upon leaving we run into a lady I know through work that does billing for my DR, I tell her baby is still breech and she teasingly tells Cody it's all his fault. Cody has no clue who this woman is, and less than amused I start to panic when I seem him stone face her and turn beat red. I promptly introduce them and scoot ourselves out the door for everyone's safety.
We go back to the waiting room to wait for the DR. I offer Cody a magazine, he looks at me like "What the Hell for?" I inform him we could be sitting here for 45 minutes or better. This is not good. The receptionist then informs me that DR.L is indeed running about 45 minutes late and that if we have some errands to run that might work out better than sitting around just waiting. We get up to leave and Cody loudly asks "Didn't you make an appointment?"
We leave and decide to go have breakfast, we come back 45 minutes later and we are promptly escorted into a room to wait to be seen.....45 minutes after that DR.L comes in.
For those doing the math, 20 minutes for the ultrasound, 45 minutes eating breakfast while waiting for the DR, and yes another 45 minutes in the little office with the stirrups waiting some more for the DR.
I have to say under the circumstances Cody was wonderful, a few snide comments and very short with the DR, but everyone left alive.
Lots of stress that day, we are definitely getting a c section. The closest thing I have ever had to surgery is my wisdom teeth being removed. I am very very nervous.
My mom arrived Wednesday night and will stay for about a month. I am so thankful that she can afford to remove herself from her life 1300 miles away for an entire month just to help us.
Gramma brought a ton of quilting material with her and her plan is to quilt so we won't try to kill each other when we can't leave the house for regular outings.
Friday was my last day at work, when I got home I had caveman feet. Throughout this pregnancy I have not swollen at all, this was a surprising event for me. I was going to take a picture for you then decided I have done a good enough job of embarrassing myself without it.
Speaking of embarrassing, God bless my mom. I showed her the nursery complete with bumper and crib comforter( I have since removed them for safety I just wanted her to see it) my mom starts laughing hysterically and asks if I still get shit over "the comforter is too short" incident. Thank you for bringing that back up, I told her only when I am a glutton for punishment and bring it up myself.
