So, I think I have a problem. I love my doctor! I don't think I'm supposed to love him as much as I do. I also love his nurse, Emily, and his trainee student person, Gehan. I love the whole staff there at the Bozeman OB/GYN. I just came back from what is probably my last OB appointment before we have Brooklyn and it's taken a few years but I've developed a fun relationship with a lot of the staff. Dr. Bradford and Geha told me that they kept looking for me each day they were on call. Geha said she would jerk awake and wonder if I was coming in. Their excitement gets me excited! Geha is sad because after getting caught up in the hype that's been going on in the last two weeks she's flying home for the weekend. I really like her and wish she could be there too. Sad day. At least Jaret will be there though!
I guess Dr. Bradford told Emily this morning that he had to be very careful checking me today because he didn't want me to go into labor until he is on call tomorrow. I just think it's funny that they had a conversation about me. Emily said, "Oh, yeah. We have a plan". I think secretly I like the attention and the enthusiasm surrounding this whole birth. It's been so long since I've gotten really excited about anything and it feels good. Mostly it's just nice to be excited about something with lots of people. I used to get so excited about lots of little things and somehow that has gotten away from me. I think that the challenges of the past couple of weeks has made right now that much better. So, it's fun to just be excited right now. I will probably be very much NOT excited while I'm in the middle of lots of pain tomorrow, but the timing seems right! I'm on the verge of being dilated to a 5 and my doctor isn't on call until 8am. I just have to make it to tomorrow.
So, if I wasn't specific enough, I am scheduled to be induced tomorrow! Then Jaret can go off to his interview in Billings on Monday and Tuesday without us biting our fingernails. I hope and pray that all goes well, that Brooklyn is healthy, and it can be the start of another chapter in our fairy tale.
