4 days and counting.......

Hello this is one of my last belly shots when I post again it will be photos of the great delivery lol. As my journey nears its end and I reflect on the whole experience I am still trying to figure out how I feel. I am still assessing my emotions and I can't just pin one emotion. I am looking forward to the delivery though I am ready my body is and my mind is.

I have been thinking about life after surrogacy, what I want to do? I loved writing this blog and I am going to continue with it. So even though this is short and doesn't really say much thank you for reading it  and following me through this year long journey

8 days and counting........

 

 

 

Hello everybody, this is one of the last photos before we go into the hospital On Monday December 30th. 2013 D-day (Delivery Day) for us whoo hoo I had my last OBGYN appointment today both IP's were there and we listened to munchkins heartbeat which was sweet music for them and me. My cervix was still closed and I have dilated to 1cm gained and additional 2lbs. and blood pressure was 127/82. I have started to have a little edema(swelling of the legs and feet) but it seems concentrated only at the end of the day. I did my pre-op blood tests today as well so all that is left is to wait. Bags are packed and are in the car, D-day outfit is ready GAME ON!!!!!

37 weeks and counting down..........

Hello everybody, so we are now 37 weeks and all is well babe is doing great my BP is good and even though I have gained another pound to be at a staggering 201lbs. we are healthy and I am happy for that the weight gain is for a reason. IM got to come to this visit she is back in town after being away for 3 months. I am happy that she got to speak to the Dr. personally as he finally put some irrational talsk to rest. Talks along the lins of early induction because I am now 37 weeks and she is sooo ready to have little girl here.

We get that she is anxious but we are really not ordering A Christmas ham/turkey here this is a little being and to bring her early for trivial reasons just wont be done. We are getting there slowly but we are getting there. i know this is her first I know that I have done this many times before so I am seeing it at a different angle than she is, but babe is connected to me and I will not put the both of us in jeporady for no valid reason. Other than that we are good. I have two more belly shots to post for you all. Bear with me I will get there soon
