New Due Date

Due to my doctor's schedule, our c-section date has been moved to 11/21 with the amino still on 11/19. We also met with the anesthesiologist at the hospital last night and he doesn't see any concerns. He recommends an epidural rather than a spinal block because the spinal block would be more likely to impact my ability to breath. The epidural numbs more gradually and doesn't numb as high up the chest as a spinal block, thus less likely to result in oxygen changes. Any changes that do occur with an epidural will be gradual so I can adjust and not panic like I might with sudden shortness of breath that may occur from a spinal block. So, looks like we are all set . . . now we just need to get the crib set up =)
