No Such Luck

Ultrasound shows baby is large for its size. Estimating weight to be 7lbs 8oz, head and abdomen circumference off the charts.

Amniotic fluid levels are good but on the higher side of the range.

Baby is still breech.

Blood pressure once again slightly elevated. No protein in urine.

Lots of words tossed around -- c-section, induction, external version.

Re-evaluation appointment on Monday to discuss options.

Ok,

Find a Chiro who is experienced in turning babies. I'll head over to my super cruncy BB and see what the women over there say about how to turn. It was a chiro who was able to help me get Syd's (then known as bean) head out of my hip. She liked to hang out transverse.

Fingers crossed. Turn baby Turn.
