Okay, at this point I'm pretty happy about the C-section decision. I love knowing when things will happen so I know how to plan. I'm very goal-oriented so I love having a deadline to get things done. And now I have time to mentally prepare for surgery, though I think that less thinking is best. I'll have a spinal which is a one time shot in my spine. That sure beats 4 epidurals last time. However, last time I was already in pain so the epidurals were nothing. Now I have to, in full health and mental capacity, sit still and voluntarily let someone stick a needle in my precious spine. But they say I will feel less during the surgery than last time. Of course, last time they said I wouldn't feel a thing (all lies). I'm also looking forward to being mentally alert this time. I'm even going to ask to see Luke coming out. I dig that stuff. With Abby I was out of it. I hardly knew I had a baby. I couldn't even open my eyes. I want that moment of total elation when the baby comes out all slimy and ready to cry. From what I hear, the whole thing should be a lot easier than last time, and, other than labor, it was very easy. It's possible we won't have him exactly at 5 if there are any emergencies in front of us so I recommend visitors come over the weekend. I might even know you are there this time. I slept through most visitors last time. I can't believe this is almost over. Awesome!
