So we made it to 37 weeks...almost 38 weeks...and saw my OBGYN today...the office was a little surprised our little one has not made an appearance yet...
So today had a normal OBGYN appt without an ultrasound...heard the baby's heartbeat...got my belly measured...and then he did a cervical check...I am 2-3 cm dilated...and my doc said he could be in there for another week or so...
Oy! I am so ready to see him already as well as a lot of our friends and family...
We will see...
I started this blog to share what we have gone through and what we will be going through as we start our journey again to becoming pregnant and afterwards.

Ditch the Stitch Day and 36 week appt!
We made it! It is Ditch the Stitch day for us! Oh and on a side note it is my birthday as well...
So at 2:30 we had the cerclage taken out! It was pretty uncomfortable with the speculum and did feel something...probably the thing that snipped the stitch...but it did not take that long...
The OBGYN also did check on the baby and we got to see him again! Doc thinks he is probably going to come either tonight or tomorrow...hoping he decides to wait until next week to arrive but who knows!
We were shocked to hear the doctor say today or tomorrow so my hubby has been scrambling to get everything done...
Also to celebrate we went out to eat and do some shopping!
Next time you hear from me is hopefully to tell you the good news!

34 and 35 week appts
So I did not get a chance to update last week...after my baby shower I needed some time to recover...
So last weeks appt was very uneventful...I did not even get to see the baby...first time without an ultrasound...it was just hear the baby with a Doppler and get mt stomach measured...
Today's appt I was not expecting to see the baby but doc said, "let's just look at the baby for fun to see how big he is..." love my doc bc of that! So ultrasound said he was at 5 lbs but doc believes he is at 6...I do not care...as long as he is thriving!
I also found out that whenever we feel the baby's body...like a big bulge...it is bc I am having Braxton hicks contractions...so doc wanted to take out our cerclage a little earlier then expected...so now our Ditch the Stitch day is on March 15 which is on my birthday...what a birthday present huh? I just hope he decides to wait until the following week to come though...
So next time I write will be after my stitch comes out! Yay!!!
