Pregnant after IF

We have a date!

As of this morning our C-section has officially been scheduled for January 16th at noon! Will have another u/s next week just to confirm that nothing has changed and I still have complete pp. If so, then we'll be meeting our baby girl in T-4 weeks (assuming she doesn't decide to come sooner on her own). After almost 4 years of struggling with 2IF I can't believe that we are here and almost at the end of what has been a very long and trying journey.

 

Hope everyone is having a great week! T & P to all of those struggling with bed rest and complications right now and good luck to all of those with due dates right around the corner!

    Oh my gosh that is right! How fun will that be if both our little girls share the same bday?  Must say I'm jealous that you got a 10:00 time slot. They told me nothing after midnight the night before (not even water) and since I'm not scheduled till noon I will be starving! Guess I will be having a snack at 11:59 p.m.  on the 15th to tide me over :)
