A Praise & A Funny(?)
The Praise: So baby boy was breech at our 30 weeks scan. We had another scan at 34 weeks due to movement declining (not majorly, just enough to notice) and he was head down. Then an ultrasound at 36 weeks for measurements due to our last baby being 9lbs. At the ultrasound he had flipped and was sideways 😑 this stressed me out so badly because I knew I would have another (final) ultrasound at 38 weeks to see if he was head down, and if we wasn’t, we would have to talk about attempting to spin him/c-section. I’ve had 2 successful vaginal births and really did not want a c-section 😩 I had been stressing the past 2 weeks because I could see and feel that he was still sideways. The day before my appointment (which was yesterday) I text my women’s small group at church + anyone else I knew that was a prayer warrior and asked them to pray he would flip head down. That night/morning he started turning (could definitely feel him... it was extremely uncomfortable 🥴) between 1:30-2:45. Still had nerves because... did he flip head down?! Went to my ultrasound at 2:40 pm and HE WAS HEAD DOWN 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼 y’all, I busted out into tears and couldn’t stop. I was SO HAPPY and just kept telling the tech sorry 😂 anyways, GOD IS GOOD AND THE POWER OF PRAYER IS AMAZING!!!
The Funny: ever since he flipped head down, I swear I’ve had to poop every time I pee 🤦🏻♀️😂 like, I don’t feel like I have to at all until I sit down! Idk if he’s just pushing on my bladder in a weird way now or what, but I’m definitely getting cleaned out well before he comes 😂
I’m 38w3d today, he’s measuring 8+ lbs, and I’m 2cm dilated but cervix is still very thick. If he doesn’t come on his own, we will have something in the books soon for his DD weekend (September 26) 🙌🏼🙌🏼 can’t wait to welcome baby boy #3!!!
