May 24, 2002 - 37 Weeks - Yippee!!!
Today's doctor appointment brought good news. She's finally decided
to flip over and looks like she's in good position now. The doctor says
that at this point he considers her full term and would not stop labor if it
started. So, we got our final instructions on when to call the hospital
after the contractions begin and we go back to the old fashioned method of just
waiting it out. Not only are we happy that we won't have to go through
surgery and/or attempts at turning the baby, but Mommy is happier now
too. Since the baby flipped and dropped the heartburn has gone back
to manageable levels and I can breathe again. The doctor did an ultrasound
to confirm the baby's position. We didn't get a good picture of the face
because of where she was, but we did get a really good look at a confirmation
that she is in fact a girl. Even Chris and I could tell right away what we
were looking at. So, no need to keep a couple of emergency boys names on
hand "just in case"!
