the almighty date...

as in, the c-section date... was made today with the new doctor. some of you have likely heard that there is a severe ob/gyn shortage in this here county (which for the record, is larger than the state of massachusetts). this has meant that it's really difficult to get appointments, be seen by an actual doctor on the day of said appointment, and get any kind of questions or concerns answered.

unfortunately, the lovely doctor who delivered isa moved away and our favorite certified nurse midwife doesn't have delivery priviledges (read: small town politics). so that left us in a bit of a lurch. but as of today, atleast we have a doctor who will deliver this child! miracle of miracles! granted, we will be having a repeat c-section (long story, not for blogging, all politics aside) so it's not like we have that many choices... but i digress. what's the magical date? december 11th. so assuming this little one doesn't decide to come before 39 weeks, that's the day it will be born. of course you wouldn't hear me complaining if the arrival was closer to 37 weeks, like miss isa ;-)
