Breech Baby - Part 2

Today's blog is a follow up from a few days ago about baby girl #2 being breech.

Today was my 35 week baby/mommy check up. I am healthy. More importantly Baby girl #2 is healthy! That is the good news and it is always great to hear that we are both healthy and doing fine! 

Unfortunately she is completely 100% breech - confirmed by ultrasound! Her head is near the right side of my rib cage. Her abdomen and butt region are right above my cervix. I am bummed! Really bummed! I really thought she had moved over the weekend!

In about two weeks, we will try ECV to get her to flip. If that doesn't work, a C-Section will be scheduled for week 39. I'm hoping that she will just be a good girl and flip on her own! Most of the people in our family are pretty stubborn though, so I can't expect her to be any different! Its in our DNA to be difficult I think! Even our dog is stubborn! Dogs are not supposed to be stubborn!!! It is my destiny to be surrounded by creatures big and small who are just as stubborn as I am or more so! I would worry if this baby is any different! ha ha!

I will blog about how the ECV goes once it happens! If anyone is actually reading this, keep your fingers crossed for us that she flips on her own before the ECV or at least that the procedure is successful! I am completely scared of the pain, but its worth it if it works! 

I will try to find something more fun to blog about tomorrow! :)
