While I was waiting in the lobby to be seen, a fellow pregnant friend of mine (a coworker) walked in so we were able to visit the entire wait which was nice!
When I was called back, I talked with the most caring nurse who began by saying she couldn't imagine my paranoia after looking at my chart. She shared with me that she had experienced loss as well and she was just so kind! She set me up with my upcoming lab work and then put me in a room to speak with Dr. Sundstrom.
I didn't have to wait long, and once he came in it was all business. First, he asked how I am feeling which I am thrilled to share is great! This is the best I have felt at this stage of pregnancy and I am so thankful for that! He also mentioned that I was still able to call anytime I was feeling nervous about the pregnancy to check for Luke's heartbeat. I assured him that I hadn't needed to because all this little guy does all day is kick and turn and tumble! I love the reassurance :)
He measured my stomach and then took out the heartbeat monitor. Once he found the heartbeat, he literally laughed as he traveled across my stomach to keep up with the little guy. He wouldn't keep still! The doctor then said he understood why I haven't needed to come in for reassurance. Luke is so active!
After everything checked out great, we discussed the C-section. He looked ahead and asked if Monday June 8th was a good day for us. He was surprised when I emphatically said no. I explained that June 8th was already a special day and I didn't want my little guys to have to share a birthday! So, we will schedule it for sometime that week :)
So, in summary, everything looks great and little Luke is coming right along :)
