Good Morning all,
...let me just preface and say I have been lurking for a while (that always sounds "uncle kreepy" to me LOL
) and I have garnished sooo much information from you guys and I thought it was time to introduce ourselves.
My name is Tia, as of this Thursday I will be 40 weeks pregnant (that's enough to make you feel sorry for me there
I am having a lil boy, Zachary Owen, we still are not 100% certain because he likes to look at momma's back while having pictures taken, but we think he has a small unilateral cleft on his left side.
We found out at our first Ultrasound, thank goodness my husband was with me. The nurse was checking everything about the baby, she was rather talkative, "this looks good" "oh this looks real good". Then she shut up, looking at the monitor moving her head from side to side, you knew something didn't "look good." I finally lifted my head up and looked at her..."what is it?" She then told us that he possibly had the cleft lip, and explained to us kinda what it was, and of course on this day the Doc actually wasn't in the office he was at the hospital. Once I heard "cleft lip" my head was gone, I didn't know what it was (if I only knew then what I know now) it felt like my head was kinda floating up in the air all the questions running through my head, knowing I couldn't talk to the doc until the morning. I just wanted to get out of there, I needed some fresh air, I just had to get out.
My mother lives 1.5 hours away, however my-mother-in law worked right across the street from the Docs office. We went to tell her, and I made it into the back room of the store before I broke down. She then hugged me and told me "ohh is that all?, don't you worry about that" (I know she didn't mean anything by that but I still don't like her phrasing, and will probably never forget it) A few minutes later we left there and I called my mother and then I reallllly lost it. I cried on the phone to her for I know 10 minutes and she was at work as well.
She called me an hour later and told me that her, dad, and my sister were on there way down. Well by this time I've had time to calm down, do a lil research, at least to the point of having some knowledge of what I'm dealing with. "No mom that's okay you don't have do that." Plus my house was a MESSS. They came, me and my husband did a MAD house cleaning. It was great to see them, I felt much better and I'm glad they came.
Anyway, enough rambling, sorry. If I don't have the baby by next Wed, the next time I got to the Docs, they will schedule me for an induction. Everyone is so ready to see him and hold and kiss him. I'm ready for all that as well, but more importantly right now, I'm ready for him to be out of me! LOL Put a fork in me I'm done!
