Wednesday December 17th, our new names will be Mommy and Daddy!

After visiting with Dr. Garner today, we decided a c-section wasn’t necessary today. However, I will have one on Wednesday (12-17)! I am still shocked Jason and I will be parents in two days. Amazing. Dr. G doesn’t want me to go full term due to my thyroid. No matter what, we knew we would have Karch Christmas week or the week after. We discussed the week of Christmas, but I don’t want to be in a hospital on Christmas. The week after Dr. Garner is super duper busy (but he could fit us in) with people wanting their kiddos to be born before the New Year (tax deduction). He sent me up to Dr. Koster’s office for an amniotic fluid test to ensure Karch’s lungs are developed. She decided to check him out herself before doing the needle test. She said by his size he needs to be born by primary c-section therefore, no choice to have any other way. Plus, she didn’t think he could grow another week in my belly. By her sono Karch is showing 9 ½ lbs! To sum it all up, both doctors agreed Wednesday, December 17th, is the best date.
