And I sure hope Good Friday lives up to its name.
In 8 days, I will be having surgery.
I'm very confident in the procedure and even more confident in my doctor but I'm still feeling a little bit of apprehension.
I went to visit my doctor yesterday and while I knew we would be scheduling the surgery, I didn't expect it to be scheduled quite so soon. I expected it to be the week after Easter. And when she first said the word Friday, I got so excited that I wouldn't have to take as much time off from work that I didn't really realize how soon Friday is. In fact, I don't think it really dawned on me until last night as I was going to bed. That's when I started thinking really thinking about how soon it is.
But in a way, I'm glad that it's soon. I'm glad that we can get past this part of the pregnancy and move on. I'm glad that in 9 days, I will be done with surgery and (hopefully) able to focus more on a LONG pregnancy.
My appointment was fairly routine. My doctor tried to find the heart beat with the dopplar but only heard 3 or 4 beats so she sent me to ultrasound just to get a peek. So I got an unexpected look at the baby. And since it is a pretty good picture, I want to introduce all of you to Baby #2 (who I still think is a girl!).
Many prayers for a successful, uneventful surgery Anna! The baby looks beautiful!!! We are still elated for you two!
