Hi! I thought that I would start this thread selfishly because I have questions, and also since most of the group is at the point of weekly check up's and might want to chat...
How far along are you? 37+1
Questions/Updates? At my regular check in at 36+5 last week we saw that baby was breech. After a more detailed ultrasound that showed that things are ok, we scheduled an ECV for today. After 3 attempts it was a success! I'm wondering if any of you had an ECV at this point in pregnancy, if baby flipped back on their own, and what it felt like if they did. Both OBs were optimistic that she would stay put based on how difficult she was to flip, but of course I'm worried every time I feel her move around in there now!

Hopefully for you she stays put.

Questions/Updates? Nothing major. Failed ECV last week. Still breech today. NST Friday. Ultrasound, NST and appointment next Wednesday, scheduled c section next Friday morning.
Just trying to figure what I need and prepare for the c section. I had a natural birth with my son so it’s a whole new ball game for me.

I'm 37+1
Dr .Appointment with my strep b results on Thursday. I was positive with DD, which was no big deal, but it's good to know.
For whatever reason I am super paranoid about going early with this one. I'm also so uncomfortable most of the time, that I worry I won't know a contraction from a regular BH or cramp. DD's labor had no thought to it. My water broke, I was strep B positive, so we went right in. Never had to time or keep track of anything .
Iron levels good, waiting on GBS results. She skipped the cervix check this week but said she'd do one next week bc they have to feel around up there to confirm head down position anyway.
The GBS swab was painless with my last pregnancy but this time it hurt like a bitch because my crotch area is already so painful. Ugh.
@nugs41 No idea I'm sorry

Questions/Updates? Dr said that at my next appointment (39 +1) she'd do a membrane sweep if I want to. I'm super torn. Anyone have experience with this? This is my 2nd baby, and my 1st one came a week late which I definitely don't want to do again! Not sure if I'll be ready by next week though. I think just anxiety about having #2 is kicking in right about now. I'm also still going through a kitchen remodel that was supposed to be done 2 months ago, so I've got some added stress going on.
Also, good luck to you @princesslockness
I also did the GBS swab last week, and it was uncomfortable for sure, but quick. I tested positive so that sucks, but this whole breech reversal has been on my mind so I'm not worrying about it too much. Had another ultrasound today and she is still head down and looking good, so I'm just so thankful for that and thinking that as she gets bigger she'll be more likely to stay.
