No baby yesterday, they sent us home. Baby just did not want to cooperate and stay head down when the dr. came in. We attempted to move it twice, and I KNOW it was head down after we played music for it, but the dr. didn't come into the room until AN HOUR LATER!!! And by that time, the baby had moved back to head up :( so that's when he sent us home.
I have another apt. Monday to check on position and talk about induction again or c-section. If baby's head is down in the office, I want him to break my water right there and then I can walk over to the birth center! Hopefully I have that option, it's my body right? I'm the paying "customer"
Been asking for lots of prayers that the baby does the right thing and goes head down and stays head down!!!

CRAZINESS!!!
Ok, so I had an apt. last Thursday, everything went well, according to plan, wait until I go into labor and go to the hospital.
We had an ultrasound yesterday to check baby's weight, and to see if it's healthy.
Baby is a shocking 6lbs 8oz (I have only gained 20lbs this pregnancy) wowza, that's TINY! Hopefully the ultrasound is off a bit and the baby is a little bigger than that. Everything else looks GREAT the baby scored an 8 out of an 8 on kidney function, heart function, breathing, and so on. BUT! Baby was breech, head up, NOT what we wanted to see or hear...I started doing things to help the baby move head down like playing music near my lower abdomen to make the baby move head down again...it likes doing flips!
Today we had an apt. to go over the results of the ultrasound, and for my weekly check up. And to hopefully hear the heart beating telling us the head is down..but he did an ultrasound and said baby was oblique, but moved the baby to head down, and it seems like baby is wanting to stay head down for now! And we scheduled an induction for Thursday...so put my mind at ease about baby flipping on me so much...so that's that and we will be a family of 4 on Thursday!
Pray baby stays head down!
