I had an appointment with Dr. Gaines on Wednesday. I was measuring a little ahead (32 weeks when only 31w 5 d) and he's heartbeat was strong at around 150 bpm again. We talked about the possibility of a VBAC having had two previous c-sections. Dr. Gaines was not for that idea and encouraged another c-section. They called today to line up my c-section date: March 14 at 12:30 p.m. I had hoped to schedule it for the 13th so all our children were born on a day with a 3 in it (30th, 3rd and 13th) but he'll at least be born in the 3rd month if he stays put till then. My pre-test appointment will be on the 13th at the hospital and I'll have a pre-op appointment with Dr. Gaines on the 6th. It's all starting to feel so real with having a c-section date set.
We moved Claire to Natalie's room and got paint samples to pick the blue paint we're going to paint the nursery. I'm hoping to work this weekend on reorganizing the girls toys and clothes to get the nursery cleared out to start putting back the baby items. I'm hoping to start feeling like we're getting prepared soon given we have only 7 weeks to go!
Our baby is up to four pounds now and his crown-to-rump length is probably over 11.5 inches. He has all five senses are functional. The toenails are completely formed and the hair on the head continues to grow.
