Quick update

While all the blogmamas I read are having their babies or getting pregnant which by the way it's great, I'm still here, at 36 weeks, tired, anxious and complaining. 
I have to say I can't wait for this baby to be out in the world, being pregnant it's not my thing, I didn't know it before, now I do. I am such an anxious and sometimes weak person to go through all this on my own, because that's how I feel. Until this baby is with me I feel like the only one responsable and that scare the s*** out of me.

Now with the real update, went for my 36w scan, baby is fine, still huge head, off the charts, still with some fluid in one of his kidneys, my poor boy, fluid is now 16mm so they want to see me at 37w and then decide what to do. They might induce me then. 

I have to say I will be happy to be induced at this point, I want to see this baby and make sure he is healthy and if he needs anything the Doctors can look after him in a way I know I cant. They told me they will monitor his kidney once he is out so we will see. The good news is that his other kidney is fine hurray! Plus I have to say that if the head keeps growing it probably won't fit through the birth canal. Scary shit. So here's for a short and painless induced labour and a happy healthy baby boy!

I can't wait to meet him, see what he looks like and start this new adventure together with my beautiful daughter and my amazing wife.

Picking oranges with my daughter. Love Spain.

  1. I was happy to see an update from you in my e-mail today! I'm glad that they are watching your little boy closely. I am being induced at 37 weeks... Thursday! I also developed an issue so they need to get my little ones out a little early.

    Love the picture! And I love Spain too :) I spent one summer there during a study abroad in college and it was the best! Can't wait to hear more from you :)

  2. Hi Jessica, I left a comment on your blog! Best of luck for Thursday I'll be thinking about you, Spain is lovely, the weather is great even though the economy is pretty bad here hopefully it will change sooner rather than later!
