We had an appointment with Dr. Silverman today and now we have an answer - Sunny will be delivered via c-section. My placenta moved a little, but it's still right on my cervix. It would be too dangerous for me to go into labor so a c-section will be scheduled. We'll know the exact date within the next couple weeks, but it will happen when I'm between 36 and 37 1/2 weeks which will be between August 18 and August 27. The day before the scheduled date I'll have an amniocentesis to check the development of Sunny's lungs. If they're good, we'll go ahead with the delivery the next day. If not, we'll wait a couple days. I've been preparing myself for this, so I'm doing okay. It's just nice to finally know.
On a happier note, Sunny is looking fabulous! She's five and a half pounds already! No wonder everyone who sees me thinks I'm ready to pop. I got myself a big baby! I saw her head on the ultrasound and commented to the technician that it looked big. She said that she usually doesn't say anything, but yes, her head is big. That's my girl! She had her hands up in front of her face as usual, but we were able to see her big cheeks. I can't wait to get my hands on those sweet cheeks!
