Ok, first off, I feel soooo sick right now. I had a bunch of doctor appts today and have been poked and prodded and so I am sitting here with my crackers and typing this to keep my mind going and to fill you in on all the neat stuff.
Anyhooooo…
I am not (as I suspected) 14 weeks along (as of today) like my OB thought. So my due date is not likely March 21st. I had an ultrasound today and the tech says more like 11 weeks 3 days which puts me at about April 8th. Now the tech said it’s plus or minus 10 days, but to ignore the minus because it’s so unlikely. She said I could go with my original thought of April 2nd, especially since I won’t go 40 weeks (being a diabetic / c-section and all). But I will go with the April 8th thing so as time goes I know I am not rushing anywhere.
Of course, this is until another ultrasound in about 10 weeks where we check on the development, learn the sex of the baby and all that jazz. Then she said it will be very clear and my OB can adjust the date more then. Until then my OB will use either the 2nd or 8th most likely.
Ok, the babies babies everywhere part….
My friend Cassie is in labor. I got the call on the way home from the ultrasound. They are naming their baby after her hubby’s uncle (Iain) who passed away a couple years ago. Iian and Chris (Cassie’s hubby) were very close. We are hoping the labor is the real deal and the baby comes today because as it happens, today would have been his uncle Iain’s birthday. That would just be the best ever.
Good luck Cassie I love ya!!!!
