We had another baby check-up today. The baby's CTG and ultrasound showed the baby is growing healthy & is as should be for week 32. We were also given the confirmation that as it stands, she will not be able to be born via natural childbirth. My doctor gave us a referral slip to make appointments with the hospital to start making plans for the C-section.
On August 16th, we'll meet with the anesthesiologist at the hospital, fill out all the required forms, take the necessary tests & set the date. The suggested dates from my doctor are September 9th or 10th. That leaves us with seven weeks left to prepare ourselves & our home for the new arrival. It seems so strange to think that another human will soon be joining our little family. It will be interesting to see how Teodor reacts to not being the only full time kid in the house and how Tyler will enjoy having a girl in the family. For their sakes, I hope & pray I will be able to recuperate as quickly as I did when Teodor was born via C-section. We all miss not being able to play as active as we used to, but it just takes time.
Over the next weeks, we'll have several baby check-ups and at least two more check-ups regarding the diabetes. It's nice to know we are being very well cared for even on the German social insurance. We are very blessed to have found good doctors that look out for their patients best interests. Soon as we know the exact date & time of the C-section, we'll spread the word!
