So we had our second-to-last pre-natal visit to the doctor today. The baby still hasn’t turned, and she doesn’t look like she will, so C-section it is. Our doctor is of the opinion that babies should turn naturally, and if they don’t, there’s a good reason for it (like a short or entangled umbilical cord, for example). So she doesn’t like to interfere with nature too much, or stress out the mother. She’s also a very skilled and experienced C-section surgeon, so we’re in good hands.

So here’s how it’s going down…

Next Friday, Nov. 11th, we’ll arrive at the hospital at about 7:30am. The C-section will start at about 9am. Following the birth, SS will stay in the hospital for 3 nights. She’ll head home with our newborn on the following Monday morning (Nov. 14).

I’m still very busy, and things are about to get busier! So it goes…
