Baby is in position!!!! Exactly where it should be.

The tech said everything looked great, everything looked as it should be. The doctor came in and told me that everything was as perfect as could be, exactly what we wanted. "Excellent pockets of fluid" even. Baby is estimated to be 5lbs 13oz, but that can be higher or lower by as much as a pound. Either way, he said that was an ideal weight for the baby to be at. I feel so relieved. I feel like I have a little of my joy about this pregnancy back.

I have all these "HA HA" feelings toward the midwives right now, but Tim says I need to release those to the universe. :P


35 weeks tomorrow!



OH! And guess what, the midwives sent the WRONG order to the lab. They sent the one from March that wanted the back of the head rechecked, that my midwives said wasn't necessary, so I had to ask them to actually check position of baby and weight. GO MIDWIVES!

So you still have to do that glucose bullshit? And did they take your BP today?

This was at a radiology place, not the midwife office, so no blood pressure taking. I do still have to do the glucose test, but screw it, if I fail I fail, but if I pass, I swear to god I will not let them make me feel like crap any more!

Yeah! I added that the midwives sent the WRONG order over, so I had to actually tell the tech what we were looking for today. :P

It was absolutely ridiculous. I think they must be way better with people who are 100% *typical* in their pregnancies, but come on, I haven't been that off the charts!!

WOOHOOO! :D :D

Honestly there's still time to turn but odds are s/he'll stay down now. spin front to back, maybe, but not so much with the flipping. And there's always moxibustion for that! haha ;)

I'd never heard of moxibustion!

Yeah, I realized baby could still move a few times, but I guess at this point if baby is head down, they figure it will likely stay down. Hope it does.

Moxi is what I did to turn Zach - where I held those burning sticks near my pinky toes. lol Worked in three days! It was AWESOME.
