Well, we have a new closing date *fingers, toes, eyes, etc crossed*. It is a week from today, on the 30th.
My doctor is still guessing that baby will need to come early. He said that big babies happen a lot with diabetic women (I am type II), even if they are keeping their sugars under control (I am). I asked him the dreaded c-section question and he siad that he couldn't count it out yet. So I immediately started trying to turn my thoughts around regarding the big C. I used to think that would be the ideal way to have a baby, until I got pregnant and started reading a thousand pregnancy books that is. Now I have been pretty set on NOT wanting to have a c-section. Now I am trying to prepare myself again since I have a feeling that it is the way it is going to be. I am not so scared of the surgery part per se, that is if I am put out for it. Being awake for it? No good. I am more concerned about the recovery though. But I know I will not be the first to have a c-section so it is what it is.
Our lease is up on May 20th at our apartment and so while we were hoping to have longer to work on the house before we moved in (like closing on 4/15 as originally planned), at least we have 20 days. But now with the baby coming whoknowswhen, it may be less time. This is what I am thinking in my head anyways cause I am NOT bringing a new born into our 1 bedroom apartment, setting all her stuff up, etc. Especially when we timed this whole buying thing this way on purpose instead of waiting until our lease was up in July.
So today, Jason says "About that lease stuff, we should probably talk to the office and see if we can go month to month because I don't think the house will be done by the 20th".
Whhhhaaaatt??!
No, my dearest love heart love of my life who I do not want to strangle at all right now. Do you understand that the CHILD IS COMING!!?? We WILL be in that house before this baby comes. Done. End of story. I am 8 months pregnant and this is HOW IT WILL BE!
And it is not like this house is a huge fixer upper. Yes, we want to paint before we move in and he would like to get the upstairs bathroom remodeled ahead of time as well. Then there are things that we would like to do, like replace the doors, etc. But nothing too drastic, besides the bathroom. He says he doesn't want it half assed and rushed. Then work quickly and efficiently my dear because not everything will get done in time. Leave the small things, because it's just the way it has to be. We may need to work on some things over the course of the next few months WHILE WE ARE LIVING THERE.
I swear he says these things just to see if my head will, literally, explode.

Girl, don't worry about the big C! Really - I would SOOOO rather have had C-sections. All of my friends who have had them agree. Because your va-jay-jay stays in tact. The after effect of the baby coming out down there is so much worse! For me it was like six months until sex even sounded like a good idea. The c-section sounds bad, but at least it heals pretty quickly!
Sometimes it isn't worth worrying about what will happen, pain wise. Everyone just wants to complain about what happened to them! I was induced with my daughter and everyone told me how horrible it is to be induced, the pain is so much worse, blah, blah. It was nothing! Had the epidural before I ever had a contraction. Not one serious contraction.
It's all good once you see that baby anyway! :) And for like two weeks you swear you'd never do it again. For some reason after that, it all disappears and you're willing to pop out 100 more!
