as in, the c-section date... was made today with the new doctor. some of you have likely heard that there is a severe ob/gyn shortage in this here county (which for the record, is larger than the state of massachusetts). this has meant that it's really difficult to get appointments, be seen by an actual doctor on the day of said appointment, and get any kind of questions or concerns answered.
unfortunately, the lovely doctor who delivered isa moved away and our favorite certified nurse midwife doesn't have delivery priviledges (read: small town politics). so that left us in a bit of a lurch. but as of today, atleast we have a doctor who will deliver this child! miracle of miracles! granted, we will be having a repeat c-section (long story, not for blogging, all politics aside) so it's not like we have that many choices... but i digress. what's the magical date? december 11th. so assuming this little one doesn't decide to come before 39 weeks, that's the day it will be born. of course you wouldn't hear me complaining if the arrival was closer to 37 weeks, like miss isa ;-)

Be patient, mommy. Enjoy the calm
and peace of only 1 child while you can, knowing that when you come home with another one, things will be very different. Not to mention that Isa will suddenly seem so grown up. Love you all. So glad you have a doctor.
12-11-08 Looks like a terrific date. Hope the "little one" concurs. I know it seems like a long time to you, but to us it seems that the time has gone by so quickly. Absorb the moment... it will leave you sooo quickly. Love to all xoxo
I also had a repeat c-section, also a long story. Much as I would have loved to have experienced natural childbirth, I have to say that I had marvelous c-section births. There is just something super magical and special about seeing your baby for the first time that no amount of hospital procedures can take away. Congrats on finding a doctor!
thanks for the insight lynnie :-) we're ok with the c-section at this point... atleast i should be awake for it this time!
