Bit of a Baby update

Welp - Getting close now!  Only a few more weeks .. 2 weeks we are thinking .. unless ...... well .....
   
  The baby has decided that the way to be born is booty first. hmm 
 
The lil stinker turned .. again.  He was "headed" in the right
direction but then changed his mind aparently.   This isnt a big deal for now.  The doctor wants me to come in on Wednesday the 21st to have him turned.   
 
  Im not Real sure exactly how they do this ... its external ... I
supposed some pushing and shoving is involved.  (Like I dont get enough of that from the inside already ).
   
  Three things can happen during this lovely sounding process -
      * Worst case: the placenta separates (OW!!) and thats pretty unlikely and dangerous.
      * My water could break ... meaning baby is comming, ready or not!
      * I could go into labor later on that night or soon after.  No biggie.  We are pretty ready for
that, just in case.  (And both Grandmas are counting on it.)
   
  So thats that!  Fun fun fun .....  hmm
   
  Keep us in your thoughts and prayers.  Everything should go just fine.
  We will keep everyone posted!  big_smile

Love,
PL aka Adriane
(and Jarrett, Jake and ..... new baby ... we really need to agree on a name!)

Well you call it 'pushing and shoving' I think they call it massaging. wink big_smile tongue

Re: Bit of a Baby update

My son had to be turned about a week before delivery.  It was uneventful.  They took ultrasounds to ascertain his location.  The doctor felt around on my ex-wife's abdomen to verify.  He and an assistant pressed on a couple spots on her abdomen to flip him around.  They checked with ultrasound to verify he was flipped to the proper head down position and nothing unexpected had happened.  A week later she went into labor.

Piece of cake wink


Nah, NoExit.  This boy should be named Largo wink

Re: Bit of a Baby update

I believe he left out the verb 'worry' GL.  Come on, that was pretty clear anyway. wink
