Sometimes I dont know if it is a countdown or count up...
I was thinking about this on the way home tonite from seeing my brother and niece. Here I am ready for March 17th to get here.....but then a whole new life begins in a way. I know you are probably saying...DUH!!
It seems like I am just getting thru life by making it to certain dates. I feel like I am wishing my life away sometimes. I really am trying to enjoy these last few weeks that I have of being pregnant since they will be my last ones...but I am finding it hard to enjoy. I want the final product NOW!! Okay, re-reading that sounds bad....Mackenzie should not be considered a final product, but you know what I mean!!
I guess I am just having a hard time right now. I am so ready for Mackenzie to come, and yet in a way, I'm not ready! How much more wishy washy could I be?? Well, I guess we will leave it at that for now!!
I have my 34w1d appt tomorrow morning with Dr. S. A few things have come up since I last posted. The blood results have come back, yes, my iron is on the low side...no big deal, just need to remember to take those darn iron pills (yuck!!) We are also still trying to figure out what we are going to do with the blood situation. Since I have the Duffy anti-body, Dr. S wants to have the blood typed and crossed and HERE before I have the c-section. Fine and dandy, but I guess you can develop an anti-body within 48 hrs while pregnant. So......the lab tech told me that Tuesday or Wednesday would really be better. But for me that is TOO close to Carli's birthday. Plus I was really hoping to not be in the hospital on March 20th!! Last week when I talked to Dr. S he informed me that man am I trouble!! *LOL* He said they might just have to move the c-section time to noon on the 17th, which i was fine with. Until my mom mentioned that I wouldnt be able to eat for a while. Damn!! Good point!! I am going to mention at my appt tomorrow the possibility of maybe, possibly doing the c-section on March 14th. Going by last period, I would still fall within the 2 week mark. LP due date is March 27th - 14 days= March 13th. But going by my first u/s date, he has my due date as March 30th. That would put me at 37w5d~! I just dont know if he will do it or not!! I got to thinking about it...it would be nice! Having her on the 14th would make it so I could be home with the kids on Spring Break.....I would more than likely be out of the hospital by the 17th, if not on that day! Kenzi can still wear the super cute St. Patrick's day outfits I have bought for her. Sounds better and better to me the more I think about it. Send some good vibes that Dr. S thinks it is ok too!!
I mentioned earlier that we went and saw my brother, Darin today. His birthday is tomorrow!! Happy 28th bday!! He is daddy to my first neice Cerallin. She is the one that was born 6 weeks after Carli. Cerallin's coming home outfit was the same dress that we chose to have Carli buried in. We didnt know that at the time that we chose it. Funny thing here...I was telling them that I bought Mackenzie's Easter dress...guess what....Cerallin has the same one!! Guess this makes it easier for when they hand down clothes to Kenzi!! Which I have gotten quite a bit of!! They gave me some White Cloud diapers tonite in size 1-2!! I am pretty excited about that!! I havent bought any diapers yet. Unless you count the newborn diapers I bought when I was expecting Carli!! We have quite a few...even though I know they wont last long!! Here is a pic of the Easter dress!!!
I bought a couple of Hanes night shirts to wear at the hospital. I have decided that this time I want to look decent...I also bought a nice Hanes shirt and jammies bottoms. That organically grown cotton. Seems really soft...just hope I can bring myself to wear them! While I am at it, here is a cute creeper that I saw also when I bought Mackenzie's easter dress....this is just really springy!!
Well, I guess I will try to update with what I find out from Dr. S tomorrow!!!
