Well tomorrow is a big day! Our little one 37 weeks and officially full term. She weighs aprox 6.5 pounds and is about 20 inches long. She should be head down and in my pelvis by now. She has definately dropped over the last week and I definately feel much more weight and pressure. I am still having a lot of braxton hicks contractions but am feeling well for the most part. (laying down floor in the basement gets me kinda sore but it is one of those necessary evils for this little one to have a bedroom)
It is also a big day for another reason. Last week when we went in for our appointment, this little one was found to be breech. That's right, head up and tushie down. Since then, we have been trying just about everything to turn her around. Tomorrow we have an appointment with another OB who is going to try to turn her around with force. It has a 60% success rate so we will have to see if it works. The only thing is, if she doesn't tollerate it well, they will have to do a c-section tomorrow. I can't believe I might be able to meet my daughter face to face as soon as tomorrow! However, she still doesn't have a room or any furniture so I would like to post-pone our meeting for one more week...
So I am left tonight excited and a little scared (I know that it will not be comfortable tomorrow). I just can't believe that after all these weeks we are here near the end and I will soon have my little girl in my arms!
