Breeched

Had a doctor's appointment last Tuesday at 34 weeks. Always look forward to those, especially when there is an ultrasound involved. Mike came with! Baby is healthy and growing. Measurements from the ultrasound determined she is approximately 5 pounds and 2 ounces. Not sure how she came up with the numbers but she mentioned that baby shouldn't be more than 8 pounds. I'm okay with that because I would really love her to start tiny. She has some precious tiny outfits from the shower. The pictures from the ultrasound weren't that great this time but according to the tech and doctor, she is perfectly healthy.

Bad news: she is breech, the stinker! Dr. Brigger wants another ultrasound in three weeks, during Spring Break, to determine if she is going to turn in preparation for delivery. If she hasn't flipped, we will be scheduling a c-section and hoping and praying she's that 97% that turns just in time. Apparently there is not much I can do to talk her into it and we will just have to wait and see. She was also with her feet up to her head, in a taco position. Hope she is able to wiggle herself into a comfortable position soon because she's getting too big to move around much. Her kicks and movements are a bit more painful. I imagine she is kicking a bone or a nerve somewhere because sometimes it sends shivers down the leg. But I love her and I'm happy to be carrying her around for about 4 more weeks.
