38 Weeks

Well Mike and I went back to the doctor yesterday, and I was so sure that I had started to dialate. In fact, when Dr. Smith walked in she was her happy, joking self, but after checking me I saw the seriousness wash over her face. I still haven't started dialating, and she thinks the scar tissue on my cervix is the reason. I knew going into this pregnancy that my cervix had scar tissue from my surgery in 2007, but I tried to keep a positive outlook on everything. Well, now that it is coming down to the end, my cervix isn't wanting to work with me. We talked about inducing now, but she said that it would only end in a c-section. It didn't take long for me to say no to that idea. So, here is what we came up with. I go back to her August 5th, and if I still haven't started dialating she will induce on either the 6th or the 7th. We aren't sure if she will try and induce, or just schedule a c-section. If my cervix is still completely closed, I have a feeling she might want to do a c-section. As much as I am wanting to have her normally, I don't want to go through hours and hours of labor just to find out my cervix isn't opening. So we have a lot to think about, but we still have 2 weeks to figure it out.

So, keep us in your prayers that things will work out like they should. We know that God knows McKenna's birthday, and He will bring her into this world when he sees fit. We will let you all know when something happens. Have a great weekend...Mike and I are celebrating our 1 year anniversary this Sunday. I can't believe a year ago I married my very best friend ever...I am such a lucky girl.....Love you to the moon and back Mike!
