Baby Update

I didn't post last week since there wasn't much to post and every week might get a bit boring. This week I went in and baby has turned breech. (punk) The doctor says there is still time and fluid to turn back. He also informed me that HE would NOT be turning the baby. I guess it's risky to do and he said that he has never done one that hasn't had some complication and he refuses to do it for me...he told me he would never be able to forgive himself if soemthing went wrong. ahhhh!!! But still, I DON'T want a c-section so I am hoping and praying baby turns on it's own. As of last appointment we discussed an induction/scheduled c-section for December 8th. Suprisingly I'm not too anxious to induce, I really want to go on my own, but he'll be gone the 10-14 and he would like "baby" delivered before he leaves....and I agree. I think I will go before that, but we'll see.
As for prep, my friend called the other day and asked if I was "ready" for baby....uh "no", not emotionally or physically. LOL As many of you might know this baby hasn't been the most welcome news for me. One of the main reason for not finding out gender was so I could stay in denial as long as possible. It's hard to explain with out sounding crazy, so I won't go into details. BUT, the denial has worked really well. Even now I try not to think about how close it's getting. With that said we still haven't found out gender, which has been a bit hard since I have the same tech every week and she's always "anxious" to spill the beans. She's been really good though. And since we don't have a gender, I am having a hard time even thinking about names (DENIAL). So don't be surprised if this baby comes without a name for a little while. Which I have to admit has been really weird since all other kids (besides Bennett) have been named by about week 21 at the latest. So this is a bit weird for us. SO, the other day I went to the store with Ady and Matt and I let them pick out "take home outfits". They were super excited, we also bought a pack of diapers and that is it with my prep work. Nothing else has or will get done until baby comes. But REALLY what, besides washing the bassinet needs to be done.
So here are the cute outfits the kids helped pick out. Notice how tiny they are?!!? I put a book of mormon between them to give you a size idea. When I brought these home and laid them out both Davis and I freaked out a bit by how small they were. I think I will go pack my bags and toss them in so I don't have to look at them (DENIAL!!!!) LOL
