Our kid was supposed to come today, but hey only God really knew/knows the date. Today, we had a dr. appointment that was good. An ultrasound was performed to check the fluid around the kid and there was PLENTY. The only good image we saw today was the heart beating. We couldn't even see the face b/c the kid's food was blocking the face. Really Kid!! Then they hooked me up to the monitor to check for contractions and monitor the kid's heartbeat. The kid was chillin' and the nurse kept asking the kid to "wake up." She even encouraged some movement by touching my stomach with a little vibrating device. The kid moved a bit and then went back to chill mode. Measured my stomach. Looks good. Estimating about a 7 lb. kid. Dialated like 1 cm. Basically the kid is CHILLIN'. They went on and scheduled an induction for me next week. I must admit, I'm grateful to know the kid is doing well, but I'm also glad to know the kid's eviction date. That's a term the dr. used last week.
So like my shirt for today says, we've been trying to "Keep Calm and Carry On"
We hope you can do the same thing...until you get that call, text, or see that new blog post.
