Rants and raves on modern motherhood

Breech baby has turned!

Well I had a routine checkup yesterday (I'm in my 37th week if you ask them, my 38th if you ask me) and told my doctor I suspected the little one was still in breech, and she pulled out the ultrasound to verify. Well 'lo and behold, my little girl is now head-down! I had felt her attempting the turning while I was trying to sleep during the hot weather the week before last, but I wasn't sure if she was successful because it still felt like something hard was up in my ribs, but I guess that's her feet now. I can't express how relieved I am that I won't have to schedule a C-section. Doctor was concerned about my amniotic fluids being low, but I drank a whole lot of water and today my fluids were normal and both the fetal nonstress tests came out fine. I also got my disability leave started sooner than I had originally planned because my workplace has gotten really stressful for me and I needed out. So a lot of good things are happening and I'm so excited to meet my little girl!

Breech at 33 weeks...what to do?

So I had a quick ultrasound yesterday to check up on baby girl (long story...I had a mild electric shock at work and wanted to make sure she was OK) and the doctor who was monitoring it informed me that my daughter is in a breech position right now.
