    Just wanted to post that we head down to UCLA Children's Hospital tomorrow...DS was born with Pulmonary Stenosis and needs a valvuplasty...basically they thread a cathedar through an artery in the groin and blow up a little balloon to stretch out the valve. It should take 2-4 hours and if all looks good, we may be discharged late that afternoon!

    My OB is really concerned that I might go into labor due to the stress...so I have copies of all my prenatal records and am even taking my hospital bag just in case.

    I'm surprisingly okay and not freaking out...yet. I have a feeling I'll be a basket case when I have to hand my little boy over to the surgeons though...

    In any case, I just thought I'd let you guys know because I have mentioned it in other posts and gotten lots of support.

    Wish us luck on an uneventful and successful surgery and that these girls stay BAKING!!!

    I'll update as soon as we get back!
