It just dawned on me this morning, how long it's been since I've made an entry.
Ahhh... The end. 9 months later. So my pregnancy is coming to it's close. It's been too long since I've left a post in my journal and I thought no was the best time. Now, while my thoughts are full of the coming days. Tomorrow I go to the doctor's for my last appointment - Thought it's not actually a check up. Tomorrow morning at 11:00am will find me at Memorial Hospital's Labor and Delivery ward for my Pre-Op appointment. I'm calmer than I expected to be, I'm not nervous, or frightened at the concept of having another C-Section. I am eager, and anxious... However these emotions are more in regards to finally having Gabriel.
At tomorrow's appointment I'll visit with both Dr. Decker and the Anstesiologist, (sp?) the two of them will go over the procedure with me and make sure that I have no questions before they do all the paperwork and bloodwork before the actual opperation. I will later pick Xander up from school before taking Mikey to work, and then around 8:00pm - 9:00pm I'll be taking Xander to Mikey's mom's house, where he will spend the night. Liz is going to bring him to school the following morning since he does not have to be to school until 8:30am, and I have to be at the hospital on Thursday at 7:30am for my opperation.
The Opperation will take no more than an hour and a half if I recall correctly. I am not sure, but I hope that they will allow Mikey to be in the opperating room during this time. I would just be much more at ease if he was able to be at my side. I know that after Gabriel is born I will be exhausted and most likely want nothing more than to sleep for a little while... Not to mention eat. Due to the anastesia and the opperation it's self I'll not be allowed to eat anything after midnight on Wednesday.
I'm excited and eager to finally have this pregnancy come to an end. I know that I won't be up for doing much of anything after the C-Section, for around two weeks at least. But I feel like my "little" family will be complete when Gabriel finally gets here. I'll have my boys, and I'll have Mikey, and with that, I'll be fully content :)
I figure that this will be my last entry for a while, and it really isn't much of an update -- It's more just me jotting down my thoughts. Once, I'm well enough to get back on the computer I'll probably type up an update and an account of everything that's happened since my last post, but for now... This is all I'm writing. I'm tired and I'm going to lay down for a nap.
