Well I knew I wanted to write about this since DH brought it up the other week to me. So reflecting on our up coming life change, my DH asked me to look at my calendar from last year as he figured - hey hasn't it been a year since our first IVF attempt? Well lo and behold it was a year to the date that he brought it up that we were in the process of treatment with IVF #1 ....
Now I have mentioned before how I felt this IVF attempt the second time was a type of "sign" and in sorts of "divine intervention" well TO THE DATE my due date (August 28) is EXACTLY to the date of my "WTF" appointment with the clinic in Edmonton after our failed cycle. How weird right?!
I think its funny how things work out but obviously this was all meant to be, and in just a week or less (HOPEFULLY) we will be meeting bambino/bambina and PLEASE come sooner than a week - I AM SO SO READY lol.....
Today I had my first stranger pregnancy experience so to say - I was picking up a birthday gift for my niece and the cashier looked at me and said "Your about to pop any day aren't you?" I said well yes in a week - her response " Yah I can tell - your going to pop" UMMMMMMM LMFAO....I have not had any stranger say anything to me in 9 months until today - I had to laugh and I called my DH right away to tell him.....
Update - this one I meant to write yesterday (I think I even said it would be a double entry day - well fail on my part!!!!)
I had an ultrasound two weeks ago - because my fundal height has been measuring 4 weeks behind consistently since my 32 week checkup. Well baby seems to be fine - Dr is not worried - but half of the baby I guess to say is not measuring to date - I know ultrasounds aren't always 100% accurate, but our babies femur and stomach is measuring at about 32 and 33 weeks (I don't remember the exact number) but this was August 09 - so due to the measurements that were taken - I go for another ultrasound on Friday just to double check. Now the dr. said that if he felt baby or myself were in danger they would induce me - but it doesn't seem to be the case - since he wasn't in a rush to do the follow up ultrasound.... Heck I'd love to be induced early lol - but whatever is best for the baby and the dr. said the babies bio-physical score (happiness score as he referred to) is 8/8 which means baby has space, is active, is receiving enough oxygen etc. so I am not worried - of course I used stupid Dr. Google and it stated that a small femur or stomach measurement could be a soft marker for downs' syndrome, now again not worried because my NT scans and tests came back fine - but again nothing is 100% correct right? I am not stressing - I am just praying for a healthy baby - of course we will love the baby no matter what - I am just hoping that everything truly is ok - and that in all aspects we are just having a small baby (easier delivery?!?!!)
Well that really is what I wanted to update - next OB appointment is Thursday afternoon and ultrasound on Friday - and here is to hoping I will have a baby before I decide to do another update!!!
