Update: Head down & cleared for delivery

Thank you to everyone for their prayers during the past couple months. Yesterday we had our final ultrasound to see if the placenta had moved the 0.2 centimeters that it needed to. The ultrasound tech said everything looked great and it moved out of the way!! This means I am cleared to try for a vaginal birth instead of planning a c-section. We are happy that the baby is healthy and will come on it's own time (I say that now in hopes the baby doesn't decide to take over 40 weeks to come out).


During the ultrasound we were finally able to also get two good 3D photos.












The baby still loves to have their hand near their face and we have a little thinker. During the photo session the baby was poked a little to try and get some better photos without the hand near the face. By the end of the session, the photos show the baby's frustrated face and the desire for no more photos. We also were able to see the baby practice breathing and yawning. Who knew being in the womb was so tiring? The baby stays head down pretty much all of the time with the spine to my left and feet/hands pushing against my right side. Last night the baby rocked out, and I mean kicked, moved, and enjoyed the music of Idina Menzel (Tony award winner for Wicked). Guess the kid loves musicals as much as it's mommy.


We can't wait to meet the little person in about a month, 5 weeks. This weekend we will post photos of the finalized baby's room, and the growing mama. Blackout curtains are harder to find then I thought for our wider then usual window. Have a great week!
