By now I was anxious for these babies to make an appearance in the world. As I mentioned earlier it felt like one of the longest pregnancies ever! As time was drawing nearer Amanda began to get anxious about the babies positioning. The girl baby did not want to flip over and if that was the case she would have to have a c-section. This was actually starting to freak Amanda out. I tried to calm her as I had endured two myself, but she was hoping like crazy that she didn't have to go down that path. In my own selfish way I was hoping she wouldn't have to go down that path either as we had joined the same gym and I really wanted her to come with me and a c-section would mean a minimum of extra 6 weeks she wouldn't be able to and she hadn't been for quite some time due to her getting sick again.
Amanda tried as best she could to keep her fears from Tim and Rose, as she wrote this email:
"I have been getting sick again and will get an antibiotic so I am stronger for next week. Either I will be induced Tues nite if she is head down again or c-section Wed if she is breech. She did supposedly move between tues and wed's appt but I almost think the dr may have errored in reading the machine tues - it is not a top notch machine in that office, as compared to today's place and machine. I am beginning to have to accept the c-section I think but still praying and trying natural remedies to help her turn.
Health of everyone is most important - both physical and emotional that is.
Can't wait to see and hug you again - and to watch all of your faces in seeing these cuties for the first time! Baby boy is 5.14 and baby girl is 6.3. They said boy can actually be bigger tho cuz it was hard to get head measurements since he is so far down. Big, eh??? And all healthy so that is what is most important here."
