Doctor Visit
Yesterday I had my 37 week check up with Dr. Silvers. He said the baby has not yet descended into my pelvis and is in a seated, head up position. As you can imagine, this is not a position condusive to normal birthing! What's going on, Matty?!? He also said that my amniotic fluid is lower than the week before which would make it a little more difficult for the Baby to flip on his own and also more diffiuclt for Dr. Silvers to attempt an external flipping technique. So, I go back next week for another check up and if he is still being stubborn (he's half Mazzarese, you know), we might have to consider a C-Section- which I am a bit bummed out about. But Fotis and I are trying to be optimistic and hoping he'll assume the position!

There are some positions you can try to help persuade him to move. Not sure if they were the saving grace but I did it with mine and she was born head down. Poke around online about moving breech babies. Best of Luck to you!!
Kami sent me!!
Babies (fetuses?) are amazing little beings, here's to hoping he surprises you with a flip soon!
I hope he makes the transition also. I was very against a c-section and thankfully did not have to have one. Sending you good vibes....
There is some time. He's just being stubborn. Already acting up at the doctor's office. Get used to it!! :)
Little stinker! They have minds of there own.
Come on, turn baby turn!!
Hang in there Jessica.
We are sending big fabulous bloggin wishes your way!
I am here from Dallas K's . . .
I hope all goes well. Two of my close friends both had C-Sections, one planned b/c of breach and that went great. Even breastfeeding wasn't an issue afterwards. Good luck!
Found you via Kami.
First off, congrats on the baby!!! Secondly, he'll flip down when he's ready. :)
Six (Kami) sent me for some good vibes :)
