Just a little update on Baby Grayson:
I went to the doctor this morning and Grayson weighs 8 pounds and 1 ounce as of right now. He's still too big for me since I'm so short and my hips refuse to expand (the ONE time I WISH and thought I'd have a big booty and nothing). My doctor said that I was just too small for me to push him out naturally BUT I'm still going to opt out for a c-section UNLESS it puts me or Grayson in harm in any way. I so wanna be able to experience child birth. I wanna be able to be the first one to hold him and honestly, I wanna be able to work my ass off and push to bring him into this world. BUT sometimes that doesn't always go as planned. If I'm in too much pain and just can't do it, c-section it is. I guess I'm a little stubborn (ok big time stubborn) and wanna have him naturally because I mean come on, I have been carrying him for 9 months so I think I deserve to be the first one to hold my son lol. But as long as he's healthy and I'm healthy, I don't care how he gets here. I just want him here so bad. I wanna meet my baby boy, hold him, kiss him, and spoil him rotten!
My doctor talked to me about the possibility of being induced on the 24th. My cervix is still closed but I'm dilated at 1 centimeter which is progress since I was only dilated half a centimeter on Monday when I went to the hospital and I've been stuck on half a centimeter for 3 weeks now. My cervix is soft on the outside but closed on the inside so they're gonna keep an eye on that and keep checking me every week. If my cervix doesn't change and I don't have a baby before the 24th, they're gonna give me some medicine the night of the 23rd to help my cervix open and soften and then induce me on the 24th. I couldn't be more excited although my sister will be on vacation and I'm gonna be so sad that she won't be there :( but that's ok. Maybe Grayson will come early, but if not, my sister will see us when she gets back a couple days later.
I just can't wait until he gets here. And as all of you know, I'm a photographer so I really can't wait to get pictures of him. TC always picks on me and says, "you just want him here so you can use him as your baby model!" haha! WRONG!...that's just half of the reason tehe! I really can't wait for my 19 month old niece, Elizabeth, to meet him. She absolutely LOVES babies and has already put Grayson in his place lol. She'll be kissing my belly and Grayson will kick her in the face and she'll give him a nasty look and say, "NOOOO!" Too cute! She loves to pop my stomach and try to feed Grayson through my belly button. She's going to be such a good cousin even if she's a bossy little thing tehe!
So unless Grayson decides to break my water and come early, 13 days and counting until we get to meet our sweet little boy and I can't wait!! Ahhh this is gonna be the longest 13 days of my life!
