Update…

Mel and I just got back from Charleston today….

I met yet another OB on this visit who wanted to do things a bit differently. (I have loved each and every doctor I have met, it just seems that they each have their own idea of what is best…BUT we got it all straight today, for now anyway.) While I am still about 2 cm dilated (no further progression) Mary Clare is still tucked securely and shows no sign of arrival… this week anyway.

The new OB from today, Dr. Christopher Robinson and our cardiologist, Dr. Forbes and I had a phone conference to discuss planning the induction. It seems to get her as chunky as possible we are all willing to wait until June 27. (The more body fat she has, and the more developed she is before surgery will be best.) I just hope she holds out!!! If not, they have all assured me that all will be well, we’ll just be transported to Charleston before delivery!

I will have OB visits twice weekly now to monitor any progression…Tuesdays in Hartsville, and Thursdays in Charleston, just in case! If it seems that we need to bump up the induction, they will.

McCanless and I have been busy so far this summer. I’ll post pictures as soon as I get a minute; I just wanted to keep everyone updated on Mary Clare for now…
