Wednesday, April 1, 2009 | A General Update story

Hi All,

 

Just wanted to updated and get the updates. Time has been passing so fast, I can’t believe we’re in week-count-down mode! I have about 8-9 weeks to go, turns out the Privia was in fact complete and so I’ll be having a scheduled c-section, somewhere around week 39. Assuming that everything goes smoothly in the meantime, I haven’t had any other “side effects” of the Privia, it’s just “simply” placenta in over the cervix. Other then that things look good. We’re having a little girl, which is very active and healthy, Tumblina is her nickname she’s quite the gymnast, excellent size and heartbeat, even slightly “advanced” practicing her breathing a couple weeks earlier then would be expected. All very good signs.

 

Mommy and Daddy still have SO much to do, although I’m keeping it all in perspective pretty well. I figure you’re never going to be ready enough so having everything in place is a expectation that wouldn’t be reached anyway so why stress or exhaust myself trying. All she really needs is a place to sleep, some essentials; diapers, clothes, etc, love, and food which comes from a healthy Mom, we don’t have the diapers, easy-peezy. Other then that it’s all icing on the cake right!?! She’s not going to know if the appliqués are on the walls of her room, she wouldn’t even be in there much for a bit, or if the house is in disarray, or if she’s got enough clothes and toys for the next six-months neatly in their place. We’ll do what we can get done and worst case I’ll call in the family to help, Mom’s already been a big help.

 

I will do my best to try and keep you all posted as things start to come down to the wire. And keep up after Tumblina arrives. You ladies are always in my thoughts and prayers, I pull for you even when I’m not really around please know that.
