External Cephalic Version (ECV)

I went in for my 36 week check up today. I had a sono first to check on the size of the baby (6lbs 7oz) and to see if the baby is still breech. He is.

The Dr. and I talked for awhile about my choices. Pretty much I could do the ECV or have a Csection. I really don't want a Csection so I decided to go for the ECV. They are schedualing me for one on Monday at noon.

I'm not that nervous about the process itself I'm worried about everything else. Since I'm already dilated and effaced he'll probably come pretty soon after the ECV. Thing can go wrong and I might still have to have a Csection. A big worry for me right now is they suggest an epidural while having this done. A big pro to having one is that if something happens and I have to go for an emergency Csection then it's already in there. If I don't have one then they might have to knock me out completely and I REALLY don't want that. A con to having the epi is that if I do go into labor after this then I still the meds in me. I really want to be as med free as possible for labor. I'm really torn on what to do. . . luckily I have 5 days to think about it.

On another note we are having Jeramyah's party on the 2nd after I get off work. Just a few friends and family at the park, hot dogs and cupcakes. Simple since I'm so far along. I could wait until after the baby but I'd really like this to be the last thing Jeramyah has that is completely on his own. I'm sure he wont remember it but still.

A Little Update

So I haven't blogged about anything in awhile...I'm super lazy and these people that blog daily/weekly make me sick. =)

I went for my 35 week check up and I'm dilated to a 2 and 70% effaced...what does that mean you ask? I could seriously have this baby any second now. No steady contracts though. I go in in 2 days to get a sono to see if he's still breech, and to see if I've dilated any more. If he's still breech more than likely I will be schedualed to have a Csection the next Monday. I'm hoping that we wont have to do that.

Jeramyah is as cute as ever....I have baby brother in my belly and he has baby sister in his. Fine with me he can keep her in there for as long as he wants! =)

We all know kids say some funny things but J says things just a little differently and they crack us up. I know one day he will say everything correctly and that we'll forget how he said it so this will be an on going list of the words he says and what he is REALLY saying....

Bing Bing Ball = Ping Pong

When J wants to play baseball he'll hand you the bat and say "Strike zone, no walking, no swing." Our little coach.


Jeramyah's other new thing is saying everything he doesn't want to do is too dangerous. We tell him he can't go out front with out someone because it's too dangerous. The other day he couldn't go to bed because it was too dangerous. Wouldn't talk to grandma because it was too dangerous. It was cute the first 5 times or so now it just bugs lol.

I know there is a lot more that he used to say and doesn't say much any more. I'll hopefully think of some of them and add to the list....
