You Cannot Predict the Future

Today was our first appointment at the Maternal Fetal Medicine 4F clinic at McMaster's hospital.  Everything about today's appointment was positive.  Nothing that was said today hadn't already been said; the information was just cast in a different light.
In our previous visit, the doctor we met, let's call her Doctor X, presented us with all of the information and then told us the many ways that my labour could go wrong.  She painted a very real and scary picture.  Today's doctor, who we will call Doctor Y, had in my opinion, a much more balanced approach to my situation.
After my ultra-sound in diagnostic imagining, we headed up to the 4F clinic, which is right beside Labour and Deliver (where I had Ariel).  After not too long of a wait, we first met with a Senior Resident, who performed all of the normal pregnancy check-in type stuff (weight, blood pressure, listen to baby's heart beat) and repeated my medical history exam just to be sure they had all the correct and updated information.  She also went over the results of this morning's ultrasound.  In an upbeat kind of way, she told us that baby's wellness check was good, her weight is in the 10th to 50th percentile (normal), my amniotic fluid levels are in the high end of normal (but normal), and everything else on the ultra-sound looked good - normal!
Then the Obstetrician came in, and it was time to hear the bad news.  I waited for it, and after a few minutes what she was saying wasn't really making sense:  "Everything looks normal.  Our team will see you again in 2 weeks".  I actually had to stop her to ask, "but what about delivering early, and my chance of preterm labour, and what if, what if, what if....".  She reassured me - us -  immensely.  In her eyes, and many years of experience, (and this was the new perspective) the probability is still greater of me going to term (37 weeks) to deliver my baby, and because everything looks normal right now, she would assume a normal, natural full-term delivery.  No inductions, hospital stays or emergency racing to the hospital.  She was very much at peace with the notion that me and the baby are on track for a completely normal and natural delivery, for the time being.  She said there is no use in speculating what could happen at this point because I'm only 32 weeks pregnant, and you cannot predict what will happen closer to delivery.  Being a planner, Dan thought I would be upset with this non-commital attitude, but I find her positive outlook much more fitting to my own view of the world.  Yes, I am still a high-risk pregnancy, but that is why I am being monitored, and so far, so good!
We left with a lot of questions still hanging around our necks, but realized today was not the right time to ask them all.  We have many more appointments where we will meet the neo-natal team who will care for our baby after she's born, and the Paediatric surgeons who will perform the surgery, as well as the other Obstetricians on the team at the clinic.  Meeting all of these different health care professionals will happen in the upcoming weeks, and these nurses and doctors will best be suited to answer all of our specific questions pertaining to their areas of expertise.  The realization that there is not much else for us to do or worry about at the moment is a calming one. :)
