March 21st via induction.
We went for my 36 week visit today. After an ultrasound and discussion with my OB, we decided that it was best to proceed with an induction at 37 weeks (which to Kevin's shock and horror is next week). For a couple reasons, one is that this boy is going to be big, weighing in at 6 lbs 12 oz as of now (35 weeks 5 days, remember Calia was 6 lbs 15 oz at 38 week 5 days when she arrived), and two with the cyst (now 12cm x 18 cm) there's an increased a risk for complications. So, she'd like a controlled enviroment, which sounds good to me. Anytime after 37 weeks is term, so he'll be fine, but we are having an amnio next Thursday to check lung maturity, just in case. Exciting times. 11 days to go.
