Monday

Looks like we'll have an April Baby!

My due date is May 8 but talked with the doc today about a 38 or so week C-section.

So...We're looking at April 29 or 30.

I *hope* I go into labor before then and that I have a chance for a VBAC (and I will spare you all tons of details this go round on all the things I attempt to try and get labor going) but I am not holding my breath and am OK with a scheduled C if that's how it has to go down.

So, hey - LESS THAN A MONTH PEOPLE!!!!!!!

I had a non-stress test today and he wants me to have a Biophysical Profile done on Monday.

The non stress test went very well. Basically I was hooked up to a fetal heart rate monitor and they listened for about 15 minutes. Lots of activity, very strong heartbeat (it increased and decreased as it should) - A very good report.

My sugar numbers have been high this week but admittedly, I have not been very vigilant. Dr. M gave me a script for glyburide to help regulate my sugars.

I also had an US last week and the baby is right around 5 pounds. I am measuring 1 week ahead. I got a cute picture that looks like the baby is puckering up those sweet little lips to blow a kiss.



No "vibe" from me as to boy or girl - For the longest I was SURE it was a girl - but now, I'm really clueless!!! We're excited to be so close to finally holding this new one in our arms and knowing more about this precious little blessing.
