It’s hard to get my head around it but in less than probably 48 hours we are going to be able to see our baby for the first time, and see her face and see her looking back at us. We have some ultrasound “pictures” but they are nowhere [...]

Counting down the hours
June 25, 2008Today’s the day
June 25, 2008Wed Jun 25 09:11:32 CDT 2008
Well, today’s the day we pretty much find out whether they are going to be able to do induced labor or proceed with a cesarean delivery.
Aijuan has a (final?) appointment with her OB today at 1pm, I will meet her there together. Her OB will check on dilation and [...]
“Sky high”
June 23, 2008Mon Jun 23 17:55:07 CDT 2008
Aijuan had another back-to-back appointment, first with Darby’s office at 2 for the ultrasound BPP, then Litzinger for the OB visit at 3.
BPP went fine, everything ok. Heartrate 153bpm, “breathing” motion great. Anne and Dr Darby wanted us to be sure and bring the baby by sometime so they [...]
One week from now…

Well, we’re still on for a delivery date of Friday, June 27.
Today the OB checked and said that now she can’t feel the baby’s head, she had been able to Monday, which was promising for a regular delivery. So now a cesarean is back in the cards, but not [...]
Ten Days…

Well, was waiting for a call, and I looked at my cellphone and it said there was a missed call and I had voicemail. It had been at my desk beside me the whole time and I hadn’t heard it ring. Checked the ‘ringer off’ switch but that [...]
Ay carumba…
June 17, 2008Tue Jun 17 16:43:06 CDT 2008
Rachel from Berry’s office just called me a few minutes ago saying she had some bad news and good news. (Now I’m getting nervous because when they have any “bad news” related to pregancy, it’s BAD news).
She said that the lab couldn’t find the sample specimen. (!!!!)
Ok, that’s [...]
Waiting for results…
June 17, 2008Tue Jun 17 14:24:30 CDT 2008
Well, it’s 2:26pm and I’ve been back at work since 12:30. Dr Berry said ought to have results from the test back about 2p. Well we’ll see, they haven’t called yet….
Would be exciting to get started tonight, but if not, then we’ll at least have a better idea [...]
Maybe tomorrow night ??

Bottom line for today’s ultrasound BPP and OB visit: We might be going in tomorrow at 8pm
Had the visit at Darby’s office today for the BPP, Nancy is out so Cathy did that. Everything is looking great. Heartrate good, breathing movement, baby movement, and all the other stuff they [...]
Back to Plan A
June 16, 2008Mon Jun 16 09:22:43 CDT 2008
Aijuan called me at 9am just a while ago and said that Berry’s office called her and said they moved the fetal lung maturity amnio to Tuesday like we were originally supposed to do. So she has an appointment at 11am tomorrow as originally planned.
Don’t know if the OB [...]
Uncharted waters…
June 13, 2008Fri Jun 13 15:13:40 CDT 2008
Well, we sailed a bit into uncharted waters this afternoon.
We had a pre-partum visit with a potential pediatrician.
This lady is one of two that Dr Litzinger had recommended to us. We had driven to their offices one Friday evening, and Aijuan like the location of this one. This [...]
