My appt today!!

Maddie&EthansMom wrote: I had my appt today. Ethan is still breech! He said if the fluid levels are good next week, but he was still breech he may wait until the 8th to turn him and induce as planned. If my fluid has somewhat diminished then he will turn him next Weds and induce then. He says he could still turn on his own, but somehow he didn't seem too convincing. I may have a baby next week!! I would love to be able to hold him in my arms. I simply cannot wait to meet him. I will be 37w 4d at my appt and Ethan is almost 7 pounds. The doctor said he would be comfortable doing it next week. Of course he said I could always go into labor between now and then, but I doubt that happens. I am dilated to a 2 which is really good news for me. When I went in with Maddie I wasn't dilated at all, therefore I was in labor all day. My doctor informed me that would not be the case this time. DH is just beside himself. He is so excited. He had to go back to work for a couple of hours so he took Maddie with him. He wanted me to get some rest. Sometimes he just really surprises me.

My weight is good, but I gained a little more this time. My BP is good and the mole he took off last week was fine. (he also wrote off those charges for that visit) LOL! Ethan looks good and he is still a boy! I think my Group B strep test came back okay as well. Gosh, I can't believe it is sooooooo close!!!

And he could definitely turn on his own before then...I'll keep my fingers crossed.

My doctor said there were some exercises you can do three times a day to encourage him to turn??? Maybe you could look into these, it wouldn't hurt!
