My cerclage went off without a hitch on Tuesday. Thankfully (for us) Gustav stayed east, and all went as scheduled. My surgery was scheduled for noon, but when we checked in at 10am, they were already calling for me from the OR. So with a quick check-in, changing, checking the baby on the doppler, goodbye to Patrick, set up the IV, go over the procedure, talk to the anesthesiologist, joke with Dr. Swaim, and I was wheeled into the OR at 11am! They're NEVER early...LOL! It went terrificly, and apparently Patrick ran into Dr. Mac in the hallway, and he was thoroughly confused as to why I needed a cerclage. Dr. Swaim explained to his shock I'm sure...LOL!!
One of the nurses was explaining my history to another nurse and it cracked me up "She went through years of infertility and miscarriages to finally get her daughter, and now they can't make it stop"...LOL!
Anyway, minimal spotting Tuesday and yesterday, nothing so far today. No Tylenol or anything after, just some napping and a lazy day at home with Larkin yesterday.
I'm still avoiding the maternity clothes, but my pants are starting to ask for mercy so we'll see how long that lasts!

I am so thrilled that everything is going well!
Larkin is so very lucky to be getting a sister!
Congrats! I love hearing about Dr. Mac's surprise! Thank you for returning to your blog after time at home with Larkin. I would love to hear about how your transition back to work has gone. (I'm at home with my 3 week-old daughter and will be heading back in 9 weeks.)
