Doctors Appointment - 39 weeks

Well everyone, this is probably the last post until the arrival of our little angel. Casey and I had our 39 week appointment this morning and everything was the same as last week (Ella is still breech and I am 1cm dilated). My stomach grew 3cm from last week but some of that could be due to Ella's position changing. I spoke to Dr. Kennedy about the chances of Ella turning and she felt very strongly that due to my size and Ella's size, that she was too big to turn at this point. That being said, we scheduled a C-section for Ella to be born next Wednesday, December 9th at 7:30am. Dr. Kennedy will be performing the surgery and she is also on call this weekend in case I go into labor. She said that the surgery will start at 7:30am and Ella should be born about 10 minutes later considering everything goes as planned. Then Casey will go to recovery with Ella and I will meet them an hour later after they are finished cleaning up. Between 8:30am and 9:00am we will be moved to our room where we will be able to meet with our immediate family. It is Casey and I's wishes that the first day especially be dedicated to our immediate family and resting. If you would like to come to the hospital following the first day, please call or text Casey or I first and we will let you know how things are going.

My stomach these days is very tight because Ella is taking up every bit of space that she can and may I add that she is still VERY busy, I have no idea who she gets that from.....I am still feeling great and have attached a picture taken this morning.


















On another note, Casey and I are finished with school. His classes ended a week ago and I finished my last paper yesterday so we are both extremely excited to have our MBA's behind us. Now all we have to concentrate on is the arrival of our daughter. I have attached a picture of what a proud Papa-To-Be and someone that has just finished with his MBA looks like. Enjoy!
