So, after a pretty rough weekend, I went to see my OBGYN today to make sure all the crazy pains I was having were normal, and not premature labor. Also, the baby is 30 weeks this week, so he wanted to do another ultrasound to see if she was growing. (At my 20 week visit, she was measuring really small, so I've been worried like crazy!) Well, after my exam, everything looks pretty good. The ultrasound explained the pains. The baby has caught up, size wise, and is actually weighing in at 3 lbs, 2 oz; 2 oz bigger than normal. Way exciting. Not so exciting is the fact that unnamed baby girl is breech. We're crossing our fingers that she can turn herself by the due date. At least it explains why it feels like her constant kicking is right on my cervix. It is! We've just been hoping for good news for the past 10 weeks, and now that she's caught up, we're exstatic! Now if she would just turn upside down, and kick elsewhere....Monday, May 4, 2009

You poor girl. I hope she decides to help you out by the due date and get in the correct position.
Yeah! I am so excited and happy that she is catching up! I knew she would. I'm sorry though that you've had to worry about her all this time. I'm hopeful that she'll do a lot more flips and turn herself around in the next 2 months. Can't wait to see the little peanut!!
oh my goodness - I so know what you are going through. I had a blessing and prayed like crazy that Izabel turned and man when she turned - ouch! Nothing like a 7 lb baby turning in your tummy in one night! I will pray she will turn for you.
So glad she is healthy and growing! I can't believe you are already 30 weeks! Where is the time going? This is getting exciting!
I am so happy she is growing and everything is good. I hope she turns for you! I am excited for your baby!!
Wow I hope she turns quick! If only we could teach them to be good listeners before they come out ha ha!! Good luck, lets do lunch soon.
I am so happy everything is going well. Keep us updated. I am getting so excited for you to have this baby. Your other two are so adorable.
I am so glad things are going good. I hope she turns too! So do you have any cute names...I need suggestions.
I am glad she is growing...maybe if you stand on your head she will turn around - you were always a good gymnist :) Hope you are all well. Lets play soon.
I'm glad things are good and healthy for you. Maybe you could stand on your head and the baby would turn haha!
