38 Weeks, 5 Days |
At 38 weeks and 5 days we went to the hospital for a c-section to meet our little man. At 38 weeks I was feeling all the normal things...tired, anxious, uncomfortable, but nothing out of the ordinary. Just a little background about that week to catch you up...
At my 37 week appointment we did an ultrasound to get an idea for how big Colin was measuring. At this ultrasound they discovered that his right kidney was larger than it should be. After speaking to a specialist my doctor decided that I should come back in 24 hours for a repeat ultrasound to see if the enlarged kidney was a fluke or something we needed to worry about. 24 hours later it was still enlarged. Our doctor wanted to speak to another specialist and told us we may have the baby in two days. So we waited...
The next day we learmed that it didn't seem urgent enough to go that week. We would wait until Tuesday when I was 38 weeks and 5 days to have him. At that point we would do an ultrasound on Colin when he was born and go from there. We notified our pediatrician and had a plan!
More about what came next is coming up in another post with Colin's birth story!
