Green Light

Dear Baby-
I have been trying to write this letter all day. In case you can't tell by the title of the letter, your lungs are mature and we received the green light from Doctor Davis to go ahead with the induction on Thursday morning! I called Maternal Fetal Care @ 8 AM when they opened to see if they had any news for us. The receptionist told me that something had come across the fax late yesterday, but the Doctor wouldn't be in until around 9 AM to read it. I left my number and thought about going back to sleep. About 2 minutes later, Doctor Davis called me. He told me that the lungs are mature and we can ahead with the induction. I said, "How weird, I just called and Doctor Conners wasn't in." "Oh, I know I am at the hospital and decided to break into Doctor Conners office to get the results myself." How resourceful is he! Anyway, he asked me if preferred tomorrow or Thursday to come into the hospital. Of course, I chose Thursday to give my family any extra time to get here. After a fury of phone calls and a shortage of hotel rooms (thank to A&T Homecoming), everyone has been notified and travel arrangements made. By the time I processed everything and ate some lunch, it was time to go to work. Then our internet/email was down at work, so this is first chance I have had to update. It looks like we will finally meet you sometime on Thursday or Friday. It feels very surreal and almost like I am having an out of body experience. I am going to go into work tomorrow for a few hours and then spend the rest of the day getting any last minute details worked out for Thursday.
See you soon!
Love,
Mom
