When I went to the doctor 2 weeks ago, the nurse kept saying to me that I was 32.5 weeks along even though my calculations were 31.5 weeks. So today when I went in, she kept saying I was 34.5 weeks (my calculations were 33.5 weeks). I asked the nurse when she thought my due date was and she said August 28th---I then had to explain that I thought it was September 4th. She said for me to talk to the doctor about it because they might have changed it due to a sonogram. Well, first off they had the first day of my last cycle in the computer as November 20th---when it was actually November 28th. Thats explains the due date mishap. However, when she looked at my first couple of sonograms, they showed my due date to be on or a little before September 1st. So after talking with the doctor, they have changed my due date to September 1st to match up with my first couple of sonograms because she thinks they will probably give a more accurate due date. I know that it is only a 3 day difference but it makes a big difference in when I get induced.
Now, instead of getting induced on Monday, August 29th---I will most likely be induced on Wednesday, August 24th. She will decide for sure in two weeks. I start going weekly now and I get my first "check" next Thursday to see if I have started to make any progress. I'm a little nervous to know because I have been having contractions like crazy and I don't want to have him too early. However, I was dilated to a 3 with Cason and 90% effaced for 3 weeks and I still had to be induced so I guess I can't get too concerned if I have already started progressing. I am also measuring 2 weeks ahead of schedule so she is pretty sure he is going to be a big baby boy. I will have the sonogram in two weeks to check his size and then set the induction date. He is still head down and most likely won't move so that is very good news.
The only downside about being induced on the 24th instead of the 29th is that Cason is supposed to start Mother's Day Out that week. I was hoping that he would be able to go and meet his teacher and classmates that week but now we will just have to wait and see. Also, my last hair appointment is on the 17th----so please little Corbin do NOT come before then. Your mommy really wants to have her roots all fixed up before you are born (priorities)---LOL.
Good news for today----Corbin's bedding will be here tomorrow!!!
With the change of dates, that means I have 34 days or less!!!
