We Have Achieved a Date!
With everything that has gone on during this pregnancy I have been a complete basket case. When we discovered the breast cancer there was concern as to when we would deliver the baby. Now we know that there will be no chemo therapy while I'm carrying the li'l guy but he will be coming early. I need to know when this baby is coming! I've already taken a month off work for the mastectomy and my employer needs to know when I'll be out again, so they're asking. My mom is trying to make flight arrangements so she is asking. My Grandfather may fly in from Florida, so he is asking. Well, and, I just wanna know. So I have been calling, and calling, and calling. After what seemed like forever and too many phone calls to count we finally have a date! Well, sort of. Because of my staph infection post mastectomy more surgery seems a bit dangerous so we'll try to induce labor. Of course inducing depends greatly on the size of the tadpole at the time. Right now he's growing at a pretty steady rate and quite a bit ahead of the game so as long as that continues we're golden. So here's the plan...We'll show up to the hospital on February 19th at 5pm to begin the process. They will try one drug first to get my body ready (this of course takes 12 hours) then the following day they will begin to actually induce labor so it will probably be the 20th or the 21st before Caleb takes his first breath outside the womb. I'll know more details tomorrow when we go to the OB, but that's what I know for now. G-d I can't wait to meet this li'l guy!
