Pregnant after IF

Old faces in new places. (Really random)

So I went into the hospital for my cerclage on Thursday. Made it through the procedure just fine and was sitting in recovery sipping my orange juice when who should appear.... My RE!

Seriously, he just popped up like a jack in the box outta nowhere. Turns out he was tending to a patient with complications in the same area of the hospital when he saw DH in the waiting room. And he got upset, wanting to know what we were doing back in the hospital since he knew I wasn't far enough along to be having this baby. I've been a patient so long, with such a bad history of bad things happening. DH laughed and told him we were there for a good thing- to sew baby in and keep it safe- but that it had been a couple of hours since they'd let him (DH) in the back and he was starting to get worried.

So the doc came on back to recovery to check on me, give me a high five on keeping this baby cooking, and admired the MFM on my chart (Best in the city, wouldn't have picked anyone else for you!), and did a little dance when I told him it was a girl. Then he went back out and reassured DH that everything was going great and they'd get him back to see me in just a few.

I still wish that I could keep my RE until delivery. Not that I don't like my OB/MFM (they're great)- but after years of IVF and testing and losses- my RE is pretty awesome/special. :)
