40+4

Tomorrow is the first day of the rest of our life... And this ime is different... I don't feel like crying, the excitement has changed! Is not that I'm less scared, it's just that I'm ready, and Eva is ready!
After all the changing, moving, shifting that the little one have done over the past 2 weeks, It turned out she moved again!
The story is as follows:
On Friday 09 October I went to my antenatal appointment with a GP from the practice at Dollar (Dr Meetin) and she did the examination as there was no appointments available to see the midwife. Anyway: measuring was fine, blood pressure and urine were fine... But then she noticed that the head was still quite high up... Eva was not engaged yet... So she said it was a mattr of wait and see... However, I asked if there was any chance the baby would move and revert to breech... The Doctor said "yes"...
The following night, as I went to visit our neighbours, I noticed my bump was quite high and that my shortness of breath has, for some reason, returned! I thought it was quite odd, but I took it calmly... Sunday was a different story all together... I felt that baby had moved out the cephalic and was breech again... I phoned Triage and they told me just to wait until friday for my next appointment witn the consultant... I was not happy with the suggestion, but nonetheless, I just accepted it...
It was Frazer, on a very wise move, that suggested to phone the Dr's practice today and get seen by them, so they could feel if baby was breech or not, but the prectice was closed for the day. However, Frazer insisted on me phoning the hospital... And I did... I knew that playing the "I think baby has changed position" card was not going to work, so I used the "the movements have decreased since yesterday"... they agreed to see me straight away...
A lovely senior midwife and a fab student took care of me as soon as I arrived... And at first the student had the chance of feeling my tummy... "I think I can feel a head up here, near the ribcage"... The Senior Mudwife followed: "I think baby is breech again... I'll do a scan"... They strapped me on monitors: hearbeat fine and plenty movement (of course, Eva was displaying a burst of energy as soon as the midwives had a look to my bump!) Eventually, a scan confirmed that the head was near my ribcage, on the left hand side! It was soooo surprising, that she was looking for a second head, juet in case I was having twins!!! hahahaha!!!
Anyway, the consultant came and asked if I was ok for a c-section tomorrow! And without giving it too much thougths my answer was a straight forward "yes, I'm ready"...
I was guaranteed that, regardless the little one shifting postion again, she is coming out throught the window this time!!!
So, here I am, enjoying my last pregnant night and preparing for a future of joy with my beloved Husband, my beautiful Dogs and my strong minded and wonderful baby girl!
See you all once we are back!!!
LOVE YOUUUUUUU!!!
