c-section it is!

June 15th we will have our baby girl!! At least, that's the plan... Since Neely is still breech and seems packed in there, my doctor and I decided to go ahead and schedule the c-section, so that a)hopefully I can get an early morning time slot, and b)if she does turn, however unlikely, we can cancel the surgery. We will re-evaluate at 37 weeks when I see Dr. Gomez again, my perinatologist, for my final ultrasound. As much as I would prefer Neely to turn, it's kind of nice knowing what to expect and having the luxury of putting a plan in place. If she is delivered on June 15th, Neely and Brayden will be exactly 2 yrs and 2 wks apart. I think we're seeing joint birthday parties in their future :). In the meantime, I am beginning to taste the sentiments of "let's get this party started." I am feeling ready to be done with pregnancy...not at my wits end, but just very uncomfortable and ready to sleep on my stomach again! The technician who did my scan this week said Neely already has lots of hair (I so hope it's dark!) and weighs close to 6 lbs!! She also appears very active and healthy. We are so grateful and can't wait to meet her.
