Surprise!

So, today we found out that I'm going to be induced the last week of October. (I'll be 38 wks) At 37 weeks I'll have an amniocentesis to double check that her lungs are mature. For now that's the plan. I'm going to deliver at Providence St. Vincent in Beaverton. I'm not too thrilled about that fact. It's kind of hard because I have in my mind that I'm delivering at Southwest. I know exactly what their facilities look like, I know their procedures, what they give you to take home. So, now I have to adjust. I guess those are all insignificant things. They want me to deliver at St. Vincent's because all the specialists are there.

We also, met with the urologist and he said that she will definitely need surgery. 1 or 2 weeks after she's bion we'll go to OHSU and they'll inject dye in her kidneys and be able to see exactly what's going on and from there we'll know when and what kind of surgery she'll have. It was a lot of information. We were there for 4 hours! I'm definitely feeling overwhelmed and a little unprepared. AAAAAHHHH! Everything will work out. It's just stressful.

I can't believe you're being induced in like a month! Crazy! What a bummer that you had to change hospitals, but at least you know you'll be in good hands. I'm sure everything will be just fine!
