Not Yet?

We went to the Doctor on Thursday. I thought for sure they were going to cut the cerclage. However the baby is breech and they said she is going to stay that way. There is no way she is turning now. She has her head pressed against her chest looking down though which I think would be a very uncomfortable position. The doctor said it is a good thing that she is breech in my situation because I am less likely to go into labor. So guess what? They aren't going to cut the cerclage yet. My next doctor's appointment is on Friday and they are going to re-evaluate the situation. My doctor said 38 weeks is a lot better than 37 weeks and she really doesn't want this baby to have to see the NICU as well considering we lived there for 3 1/2 months the last time, I really don't want to go there either. So as long as I don't go into labor I can finish out the school year and even have a few days off before this little one comes.

Done!

Well we finished the baby's room. It feels so nice to have that out of the way. I just hope that it is a girl because if it's not it's going to have a pink and green room. If you look closely at the pictures you'll be able to tell what we are naming her too. My mom and I painted the flowers and butterflies on the wall. However I have to give most of the credit to her because she did the designing.











Noah's little head...

Pregnancy! Ooooh

Well I'm almost 35 weeks pregnant. I can't believe I have made it this far. I am however starting to get really scared because it is right around the corner. I went to the doctor yesterday and she said she will cut the cerclage in a couple of weeks. She said it would be the last week in May or the first week in June. She'll give me the exact date the next time I go. She said they will cut the cerclage and then monitor me for two hours afterwards if I dilate they will immediately take me over to the hospital for my C-section. However if I don't dilate then I get to go home and they can't schedule a C-section until I am 39 weeks pregnant. However almost everyone I have talked to that has had a cerclage has said that they went into labor in about 48 hours. So I worry that I won't go into labor and then I will go home and have to run back up to the hospital and have an emergency c-section. Oh and my doctor asked that I wait until her daughter graduates because she really wants to go to the graduation. With my luck I'll go into labor during her daughters graduation. I am dreading the c-section and the sleepless nights. I don't know how those of you that have two children do it. I keep thinking how am I going to do this with two? I also am worried about how Noah is going to react to this new baby.
I feel like my stomach can't get any bigger but oh it does each day. The doctor said she is now over 5 lbs.
Oh the joys of pregnancy!
