Not much longer now!

I'm excited to say I scheduled my C-section this week! Both my boys are transverse (basically laying on top of each other) and due to some other health issues I have, my OB, husband, and I decided that a C-section would be the best option. So, September 24th the boys will be making their appearance! I didn't realize it at the time, but I scheduled it the same day as my grandpa's birthday, who passed away in '97. 

It's so weird to think this is only 20 days away. I keep trying to put my mind into what that moment will be like, and I just can't. It's so hard to imagine how life is going to change in an instant! So excited to meet my boys!

Re: Not much longer now!

  • Congrats on getting a date! I just scheduled for similar reasons (B is stubbornly alternating between breech and transverse and not all the OBs in the practice feel comfortable turning/delivering breech). If all goes to plan I'll be going in 9/25 so I know what you mean- so close now after all this waiting!
