We had our BIG U/S today and we are 75% sure it’s a GIRL!!
The coffee didnt really work – - and the doctor saw 2 lines that he is ALMOST positive are the labia!! There was definitly NOT a penis or scrotum. anywhere in sight . . And he said we are going to say girl, he wrote down that I am having a girl and he is now going call baby her/she and do another U/S in 8 weeks to be certain . . . and reassure CHarlie before he spends hours painting pink stripes .
In case anyone is curious, she’s lying completly across me . .. head somewhere under left boob, butt under right boob and feet between my ribs ; thank god i havent felt it!! (obviously not as high as my boob just where in my belly she is in relation)
Anyways as far as clothes, I was good today and only bought one little OshKosh outfit for spring.

I am having a C-section and cant have an epidural and dont want general anaesthesia
A little background —
I am a L1,2 Paraplegic with rods from around L4 up to my bra line, so T5 or 6ish???!
Feeling doesnt stop at the belly button COMPLETLY but it starts to fade at the belly button. Even though I can’t feel touches to the skin I can feel deep right up to my pubic bone. TMI but I cannot feel sex.
I do not want to go under general anaesthesia unless I REALLY MUST!! I do know I cant have an epidural due to the Spinal Cord Injury.
WHat other anaesthesia are out there for me that I can know about ahead of time and ask for so they dont do general….
I want to be awake when they do my C-section so DH can be in there and so I can see my baby right away instead of waiting in recovery.
I have been under general several times and come out quicky but I dont want to wait at all!!!!!!!

My wheelchair cushion got a huge hole in it so DH has now tried a second thing to fix it – - – I need to order a new one but they are $350 but I have to have it because I can’t be on my chair without it. Well Anyways he used an old pool float, crazy glue and goop – - its covered anyways so you can’t see the ugly stuff.
