Turns out VBAC isn't an option anyways

She's breech!  I had my 38 week and c-section pre-op appt today.  I had him do an internal even though I have a c-section scheduled for next week since I had still hoped to try for a VBAC if I went into labor on my own before then -- so I wanted to know if I've made any progress -- I haven't.  Only fingertip still. 

Because of still wanting to possibly try for a VBAC we started discussing whether she was actually head down.  Last week he said he wasn't sure she was head down.  In order to attempt the VBAC, she would need to be.  He decided to do an u/s to check and sure enough, she's breech!  That explains the hiccups feeling more like they're at the top of my belly and the kicks feeling more like they're hitting me in the pelvic bone.  Plus, the hard lump at the top of my belly which turns out to be her head and not her butt (way to hard for her butt).

I kinda feel like a huge weight of wondering has been removed from my shoulders now that I know the scheduled c-section is the right move.

Wow, that's crazy!  I'm sure it's a relief to know that the VBAC is going to be the way to go.

Wow!  I'm glad that now you won't have to second guess yourself at all about the c/s since VBAC wasn't an option!

I'm sure it's a load off to know the c/s plan is "the one".

I can't believe you're going to have her so soon!!! I'm excited for you!

There you go.  I'm glad you found out and you can have peace of mind knowing that this is the best option.

Wow - crazy that that little one flipped so late in the game.  I guess she helped put your mind at ease.

wow- NEXT WEEK!? I just saw you and it still isn't sinking in that you are having that little girl so soon :-p

Glad that one decision is out of your hands and at least now all your relatives can have faith that their carefully laid schedule won't be altered- haha

Glad that weight is off of your shoulders!  And I'm glad that your little one was sweet enough to help you decide (I can't believe it's next week either!  Good luck!)

I can't believe it's already time for her arrival!  But, so glad she helped make the decision for you and you won't end up wondering "what if?".
