36 weeks and NOT BREECH!
I went to my 36 week appointment yesterday and had an ultrasound which revealed 2 things. Number 1 -- Natalie has flipped around and is in a head down and ready-to-go position. Number 2 -- Natalie is a BIG girl! The ultrasound estimates her to be about 7 and a half pounds already, and if I go until close to my due date, the doctors say she will be 9 pounds or so. Wow! Now I kinda want to have the C-section so I don't have to push her out! Just kidding, but it is nice to know that I might end up avoiding a C-section! In other news, mom is coming up on May 27th in time for my birthday on the 28th to stay with me until and after the baby is born for a while! I am so glad she is willing to do this -- I know it makes Derek rest a little easier having her here and ready to help out when I go in labor. And I'm just excited to have her here so we can hang out and have some mom/daughter quality time! Derek is in Louisiana now for a few more days for Casey and Bridgett's wedding, so hopefully Natalie won't try and appear while he's gone. I'm not worried -- I got checked yesterday and I am not really dilated at all. I should be good to go!
