Relief!
So today was my Dr. Appointment, and I literally could have kissed her. I have thought for a long time that I was extremely big, too big.That maybe I was off on my due date or something. I have felt miserable for awhile now because of my size and I have measured big almost everytime I have gone for my appointments. So today after a few months of not seeing my own Dr., but her Nurse practitioner, I finally have some validation to all the feelings I have been having.So she came into the room and said how are you and I said"Miserable." She then measured my tummy and then chuckled. She said I measured at about 38 weeks, mind you I am 35 weeks. So basically I am huge! Anyways I get to go in next week for an ultrasound to find out just how big this baby really is or find out if I am retaining water.And if the baby is the cause of my hugeness I get to schedule when I will be induced. WOO HOO! When I go in to be induced I have to have a amniocentisis(not sure if that is spelled correctly) to make sure his lungs are developed. So another reason for this induction is because Rainy was almost 8 pounds 2 weeks early and I had a very hard time delivering her. So maybe if he is born earlier it will help. My Doctor was worried if we induced too early my body wouldn't be ready forcing me to have a c-section, which freaks me out. But then she checked me and I am already dialated to a 3! so no worries there.WOO HOO! So this post might be a little too much info for some but I am freaking excited! So everybody expect Mr. Stellar to be born the first week in June NOT the end! YAY for me!
