I have been here for 15 days and I almost hate to say this aloud (you know what I mean!) but time is moving rather quickly here. I have a pretty set routine now and I love (almost) everyone that works here.
We had a in depth ultrasound yesterday on this special GE machine and my peri says that everything continues to look stable. The nurse told me that he wrote "baby has vigorous movement" in his note. I smile because Cooper moves all the time and its hilarious to watch those little arms and legs wail around.
Sadly, I did find out from my ob-gyn that he did some asking around and I will have to be asleep for the c-section. I cried when I heard this because I was looking forward to hearing Cooper's first cries. This also means that hubby can't be in the room either. I'm more sad for my hubby than I am for myself. We both know that the only important thing is that Cooper and I both make it out of that O.R. I also get panicky about being put to sleep because I woke up on a ventilator the last time I was put to sleep. Highly unlikely that that would happen again but that is such a difficult memory for me...
So, week 2 is complete and the week proved to be uneventful. Again, BOREDOM is fabulous!

Yay! For 26 weeks! I know that both you and Cooper will be fine!
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad you are at 26 weeks. I just know you are Cooper are going to be fine. Being put to sleep is a scary thing, but you'll do well. I hate that your hubby can't be there and you won't be able to hear Cooper's first cries, though.
ReplyDeleteOh, I'm so sorry you have to be put to sleep during the section! I feel so bad for you. Is it possible to have someone (a nurse maybe?) video tape his birth so you can see it later? I know how scarry it is to be knocked out. But, at least you know you'll be meeting your little man when you wake up.
ReplyDeleteGlad time is passing quickly.
So why do they have to put you out? Glad to hear that you are doing well. Take care & God Bless.

Bummer about having to be put to sleep...but hopefully you and hubby can come up with some ways to make your first moments together as a family special, even though it won't be as quickly as you want it. Glad to hear you are doing Fabulous and Cooper is healthy and strong!!
ReplyDeleteAw, I'm so sorry. I totally understand any anxiety, sadness, fear, etc. you might be feeling. That does suck :(
