I had my doctor's visit yesterday one of the main goals I had for this appointment was to lock down the DD. Since I am going to be having a scheduled C-section this time around, I am able to pick my DD as long as it is within the 1 week time period of my actual DD. My original DD was 5/15/11, however my doctor wanted me to come in a week early to avoid having to do an emergency C-section if I were to go into labor early. I don't think there is much chance of me going early, because Ava was very happy staying inside mommy's tummy, but nonetheless, I need to follow doctor's orders.
After discussing with my doctor, we agreed on the DD of 5/11/11 which will be a Wednesday. They are already booking me for surgery that day. Hearing the doctor actually say he was booking me for surgery gave me quite the thrill to know our little girl's arrival is not that far away. Now both of our girls with a their birthdays on the 11th of the month. :)
Baby girl is doing great and her little heartbeat was beating loud and strong for the doctor. I asked the doctor about my acid reflux and he basically told me there isn't anything else I can do besides taking Zantac and Tums. He said I just have to stay away from the foods that irritate it even if that means I am on a soup and toast diet. LOL! I told him the only things that don't seem to bother my tummy are carbs (breads, crackers, etc) and he said that is just fine and that the baby will get all of the nutrients she needs. So, it looks like I am stuck to a carb-filled diet for now.
Tate and I are starting the discussions of baby names, but we (meaning, I) still need to do some additional research. :)
This is such an exciting time for us and I am enjoying feeling our little girl moving around.
Love to all,
