It was this day that we had our last ultrasound to find out just how big our little bug was! I had been having weekly nonstress tests for about a month at this point...non of wich were fun! At this point I was about 39wks, measuring around 42-43wks...Not good i guess...So an ultrasound was in order...I also had preclapsia with lots of swelling and high bloodpressure (that is why so many nonstress tests) nothing was every wrong with Barrett's heartrate and his movements were always good so he just stayed inside while i was misarable all over! I was on partial bedrest for a month!
Ok back to the day...Dr.Richmond sent me to MHP to have an ultrasound to measure Barrett and he was measuring at a estimated weight of 8lbs 12oz...give or take 1.5lbs...yeah that is right he could weigh 11lbs!!!!!!!!!!!! He was also postiriur (or face up) which isn't good...So Dr.Richmond was going to call me that afternoon I heard NOTHING....So at 4:30pm I called him...he knew NOTHING....Great...So by noon on Friday i heard NOTHING....so i called again...He knew NOTHING! are you for real!?!? So he said he would make arragments to meet with the radiologist as soon as he could either friday afternoon or Monday morning and call me ASAP as he knew something...GREAT! I wanted to know NOTHING all weekend that was my dream come true...How did he know?!? SOOOOOOOO I waited all weekend wondering and waiting for monday! Little did I know that my fait had already been decided by two awesome Doctors. My doctor Richmond and my surgeon DR.Breon...They had a little meeting about me over the phone on Saturday...Dr.Richmond called me bright and early Monday morning 7:30am on Dec.7th....he told me I had an hour to get to his office...It had snowed the night before so nic was out plowing snow, and i had daycare kids arriving...Next best thing to nic is my dad...so i called him and he came over to watch my daycare kids while i went to find out what the deal was...Got the the doctors office and my bp was 175/120...yeah that is soooooooooo not good.....guess who was the lucky winner of another non stress test??? ME ME ME!!!! Also it was decided that I would be having a csection either that day or frist thing Dec.8th...Well by the time i left for the hospital for the non stress I had informed all my daycare parents that I was now done with daycare until January...YEAH me...Had the non stress relaxed enough to get my bp down to 145/100 so they let me go home!!!!
We got up bright and early to go have a csection on Tuesday December 8, 2009...
Barrett James (NO HE WILL NOT BE CALLED B.J.!) was born at 8:56am via csection weighing 9lbs 12oz and 20in long!
