Doctor update....

Well I had my appt's today at my specialist and my regular doctor. And I am beginning to think I am going to be pregnant forever. =) Its as if my doctor has completely forgotten every converstation we have had over the last few weeks. We have discussed the same date over and over again, and today I ask..."When will we need to actually schedule the section? I wasn't sure how far in advance in needed to be done, and its less then two weeks away?" And he replies, "Well, it just depends on when I deliver you?" Huh???? I thought we already had this planned out. So, in one breath he tells me it may be next week depending on my bp, or it may be August 1st, even though its a saturday, since he is on call that day and I would be 37 weeks, but if my blood pressure doesn't go up we might try to make it to 38 weeks. Really???? One thing you should not do is tell a pregnant lady that she is going to have her baby only to tell her that she has to wait one more week. No false hope, not cool. Especially since hes been telling me the same thing for weeks now. But, I guess if I have to be pregnant for longer, then thats what we will do. Just trying to see the light at the end of the tunnel. He did check me and I am dilated to a 1, but as most of you know...it can be that way for some time. =)

That's so not nice of him. But I thought you were having him on August 3rd?

Yeah, thats exactly what I thought because thats what he told me. Who knows...I think I'm going to be pregnant forever.

I knew not to trust the date my OB gave me after my first once since he changed to a week later. I am sure he will try to push out the date as far as he can safely. But please don't feel like 37 weeks is being pregnant for forever. haha I can't wait to meet your new bundle of joy.
