We got there at 8:30 am and we quickly sat down with Dr. Heidi, the
nurse Barbara and Geda, a Cornell Pre Med intern. Dr. Heidi mainly
just wanted a report from us so Monica told everyone how she has been
doing. She had slight contractions all night but they settled this
morning. The babies heart beats are 132 and 138, they switched count
since we checked last week. The babies are already positioned head
down. The baby on the right side of Monica, we’re calling this one Lightning
for now, is the first one in line. The baby on the left, we are
calling this one Thunder, is also ready to go. We all agreed that we
are ready for them to start the process. Now it is their turn.
Side note: Barbara, the nurse, used to live in Missoula, MT and even
more of a coincidence is the fact that she had her first baby with
Dolly Browder, the midwife that we worked with for Rainy. Now that is
just amazing.
Monica was invited to a VBAC meeting at the office tonight at 6:30.
She will practically be a celebrity since she already had a VBAC
(vaginal birth after cesarean) with Torrent, now she is shooting for
a VBAV (vaginal birth after VBAC).
