Almost there

Well as some of you know my ob-gyn passed away a week ago. Well last Friday My dh and I met his partner for the first time and he will be delivering me, well at my check up I am actually 2 centimeters dialated and 50% effaced.  He thinks that I will go sometime before my next appt but I will not be holding my breath for that, lol.  Can I just tell you how much it ***** to lose such a wonderful doctor, everytime I think about my delivery without him I cry, I know it's probably the hormones, but it still ***** that I was so close to delivery when he passed.  I would never wish this on my worst enemy, it just plain *****.  So everybody please pray that I go at least by this weekend.  I will post if anything happens sooner.  Thanks.

He was only 60 and passed away in his sleep.  It's just really hard to know that he will not be there when I deliver this baby, he delivered me and my 2 girls.  Thank you for your prayers I need any I get at this time. :o)

go on friday and we'll deliver on the same day!!!  :)  my doc didn't pass away but i'm in the same boat w/ not being able to have my regular doc deliver me (he delivered my other 3) b/c of having to swtich hospitals.  but either way it will all be ok and good luck w/ getting your labor going!
