I had an OB-GYN appointment yesterday with Dr Yang. We are now going to start having weekly appointments until the baby is born. I still don't think I'm going to pop prior to March 1st but we shall see. At this point, I am all baby. My stomach is hard as a rock because of the size of this child and I'm at the point where some of my maternity tops ride up. Lovely. I've never shown my midriff in public in my life (my mama raised me right), even when I was a thin teenager, so why does it have to start now?
Anyhow, everything is going well. He went over the info he got back from perinatology and although the baby's kidneys have extra fluid, all other organ systems are working normally and there doesn't seem to be any deformation. All and all it will be just a couple of routine visits to a neo-natal renal specialist. We won't have any reason to be in the NICU or anything though we are still being advised to limit visitation to prevent infection.
Our final CBE class is tonight. I guess we "graduate" or whatever. I read the baby books so there isn't alot of new info that I learned here but maybe it put a permanent stamp on my brain. If nothing else, we got alot of free stuff and coupons so that's a good thing. Tony seems to have learned alot and it has made him more confident with the whole situation. He seems to think he can handle being alone with me for the whole labor experience, however i think my mom will need to be there to relieve him for part of it. Any volunteers to relieve me?
He did stay up most of the night and constructed the crib which came on Tuesday afternoon. I wish he wouldn't have done that on a work night since I still can't get his butt out of bed and its almost 11am. Still that was awfully sweet of him. I'll post pics once I've washed the bedding and put it in the crip. I need to rearrange some furniture to give it a more feng shui appeal.
