3 Wednesdays from now, the countdown will be over. I had my doctor's appointment today and he said I'm running smaller than "normal ladies" and my iron level has dropped but nothing too significant and everything's looking good. He also gave me a paper on the risks of a VBAC (vaginal birth after C-section)... which I'll admit I would rather do. I figured it this way: if I went into labor before my scheduled c-section, I'll run 30 minutes north to San Luis Obispo's hospital and try to deliver there. But if Jeremiah gets cozy and stays put, then I'll show up for my appointment and have him cut out. It's scary either way you put it (but the recovery time is so much quicker with VBAC).
Jeremiah moves primarily when:
- Zeke is on my lap or being loud
- or I'm listening to Pastor Rob preach. (On Sunday mornings he's rolling all over the place!): maybe he'll be a preacher when he grows up??
There are so many things I've got rolling around in my brain for me to do before everything takes place... Friends have been awesome offering to help but, honestly, how will they put together a caretakers list for whoever's taking care of Zeke? It boils down to crazy random things that I just need to buckle down and do rather than think of doing:)
