Baby update

So, we now have 31 days left until our little girl is due to arrive. I am feeling pretty good, relatively speaking. I do deal with your basic lower back ache/nerve pinch, but for the most part, I can't complain.

Unfortunately, our baby was breech at my last appointment. I wouldn't be very concerned except that these days, doctors are so scared of being sued that most aren't willing to let women labor normally with a breech baby. There is still some time for her to turn to a head-down position and that is what we are seriously praying for. We'd love your prayers as well.

Oh, and YES, I have definitely looked up ways to get a baby to turn. I have tried (and continue to try) lying upside down on an ironing board at an incline, while sticking an ice pack at the top of my stomach and soft classical music playing from headphones at the bottom of my stomach (boy, is that ever uncomfortable). I've also soaked in a hot bath with ice at the top of my stomach. I plan to go swimming regularly and do handstands in the pool. I have an appointment with a chiropractor tomorrow, and I've already looked up an acupuncturist near me. I'll be getting a blessing here tonight and fast Sunday is approaching. I am not just sitting idly and crossing my fingers. I guess it gives me something to focus on. ;)
