We might get a December baby afterall

The doctor appointment went well today. I didn't sleep at all last night. Woke up at 3:45 and didn't get back to sleep until 6 - had to be up at 7 to get ready for the appointment, which was at 8:30.

When we got there, we met with the Benefits Coordinator (a.k.a my aunt and the kids' godmother). She was cracking me up by going over the "normal" schpeal (sp?) like she didn't know us.

We were early, so we actually got into the appointment a little early. Everything went well. Emma stayed with me during the "exam". I thought it was important that she sees Mommy go through it and sees that it is okay and kind of knows what to expect. Granted, she is only 3, but the more comfortable you are with healthcare, the better you will be about taking care of yourself and doing regular check-ups. Anyway...

Dr. Lupton says everything looks like I am about 8 1/2 weeks, so that means a January 14th due date. We will find out for certain on Wednesday when I go for the ultrasound. With everything that is going on, it is really important to have an accurate due date. We will have to change my Lovenox to Heparin at some point and I will be a scheduled c-section. I asked about going natural, but he said it is not recommended.

That is abut it for now. I will post more after Wednesday's ultrasound.
