Baby is head down!

Thank God!  I know he could flip again but that's good news. I was nervous he would still be breech today and I really did not want them scheduling a C for me.  So I feel relieved.  They did a 3D ultrasound too which I've never gotten to see before. How cool!  It was soo cool to see him like that. He was nuzzled up pretty close to my belly so it was hard for her to get a good shot and she had to nudge him a little bit so he would move back and finally got a good profile. so cute! It's crazy how much they can see.  Home stretch now thank goodness!! 

The only part that depressed me was the other mom in the waiting room who was 38 weeks.. has one child already at home and looked much smaller than me at 35 weeks. I was like seriously.. why are you so cute and I'm so huge!!??  lol

Yeah!!! Mine was head down after being breech for so long. But now she keeps turning transverse. Quite frustrating.

He must have been listening to his mom.  All weekend I kept poking him saying.. listen up Mr.. you need to turn that little butt around because mommy did not sign up for a C-section. lol  So glad he moved!! Hopefully he stays that way.  OOh I can't wait to see those little cheeks in person.  It was so cute seeing him on ultrasound today.

I checked on my makena injection too and the pharmacy sounded like they are shipping another vial to the doctor so I don't know why the doctor kept saying they were stopping at 35 weeks. Weird. I don't know!  Today the NP said.. well I was thinking about what you said.. about going into labor at 37 weeks and 6 days and your last shot being at 37 weeks but your body didn't KNOW you weren't getting another shot so that could have been coincidence.  I said well yes of course it could have been coincidence but my body did know that I was 4 days post the time when I would have had the injection so clearly it knew that the progesterone was leaving my body.  Just weird. I don't get it.  I've never heard of them stopping it before 37 weeks.

Yay!  Such great news!  Let's hope that baby stays head down for the duration!  :-)

i knew it was too early to start talk of c section!  Now...don't recline back!  that opens up the hips wider and makes it  easier for them to get their heads  out of there and flip again

cneiding  i thought so too!  I don't remember my previous OB even checking position at 34 weeks.  I was relieved to that he flipped. I haven't felt any huge movements since this weekend so hopefully he stays. My biggest challenge with reclining back is that I constantly feel like I can't breathe.  My kids like to cuddle in our 'big bed' at night before bedtime so when I'm cuddling with them I'm usually leaned back against a bunch of pillows.. mostly sitting upright but not straight up.  I do tend to lean back in my work chair too. I just feel like I can't get a deep breath so I'm constantly trying to breathe!  I feel blessed to have this baby but man I can't wait until D day. lol
