Yikes...guess I haven't posted in long time!

So...where to start. It has been a while. Have had a couple ultrasounds since posting and I think most everyone knows that the baby is breech. We decided to try anything and everything to flip him. So, I have put my hips in the air, played music down under, talked to him and then even sought out help. I started going to a chiropractor who specializes in the Webster Technique. This is doing adjustments to the hips, pelvis and lower back to help give more room to baby. It also involves loosening the ligaments that hold the baby up and then inversion. Inversion just means pretty much that I put my knees on something and bend over onto my elbows so my butt is in the air. It pretty much sucks to be in the position...I have gotten better at it, but it still sucks. And to top it off I broke the little table I have been using last night, which when broke pushed back and put a hole in the wall! Nice...real nice :) Anyway, I have been been to the chiropractor now 5 times. Last night was the best night, we had some good movement...so keep your fingers crossed.
I also tried this last Saturday to do what is called External Cephalic Version. This is a more invasive technique. I had to go to the hospital and be hooked to an IV, just in case something went wrong and we needed a c-section. Have to admit that is what scared me most...having a kid that day. So, anyway you go to hospital, get an IV and a shot so you don't have any contractions. Then, the doctor comes in lubes you up and pushes with all his might. They first push him to do a forward roll. We do that twice. Then, we try backwards. When they went backwards, we had most success (maybe some gymnastics in his future), but when the doctor let go, he went right back with head up. Then, they tried one more time forwards. No success! So, no flipping that way.
I am still hoping for flipping. I will keep seeing the chiropractor. But at the doctor today they made me schedule for a c-section. So...guess we have a date...February 11th. We don't have a time yet, but I am sure they will call me tomorrow to tell me when. Some days I have come to terms with a c-section which isn't at all what planned for and other days I get mad. However, ultimate desire...healthy baby, so in the end I guess it doesn't matter.
Everyone think of baby flipping!!!! I will keep you all posted.
