Breech Baby

Yesterday I had a doctors appointment and ultrasound. It was fun seeing Mariah. She is very cute with chubby cheeks and big lips. We didnt get any good pictures from the ultrasound though. But Mariah is being a stubborn baby and she is breech! She is what they call Frank Breech which means that her head and feet are up by my ribs and her bottom is down in my pelvis. The doctor does not think that she will turn due to her size (almost 6lbs already!) and her position. So I have a c-section scheduled for May 15th! Only 3 weeks from tomorrow. We are getting very excited, and cant believe it is so close. She may turn on her own and so we can cancel the C-section, but I am not getting my hopes up! So only 22 days till I meet my beautiful daughter!

Turn baby turn!!! Sending head down vibes your way. Like I mentioned on our bd, I have faith that she still may turn head down. My son turned breech at 38 weeks and like I said my theory is if a baby can turn breech at 38 weeks then she still just might surprise you and turn head down and it she doesn't oh well you have a set date and you get to meet your baby girl soon!!! How very exciting!!!Good luck!!!
