Week 35

So we had an appt with the Dr this week and our stubborn little boy is still breech :( We will have an ultrasound again at 36 weeks to see if he's finally turned. If not, we will have to discuss C-section dates. Of course, if he moves to a head down position by the time we are scheduled for surgery, we won't go through with the Csec. I will also most likely try some acupuncture and a chiropractor to get baby to spin.

We also interviewed 2 different pediatricians this week. One was so so, but the other one we liked a lot. I would still like to try to find at least one other office to visit, but the one Dr we liked is here in Monument which is really convenient.


My discomfort level keeps progressing. Sleeping comfortably is a thing of the past. I have had different numbing issues in my hips and legs. This has proven interesting when I am walking outside and all of a sudden my leg gives out :)


I knitted a couple of hats and some booties for baby. I have a few pics below for you all to marvel at...lol!

How your baby's growing:

Your baby doesn't have much room to maneuver now that he's over 18 inches long and tips the scales at 5 1/4 pounds (pick up a honeydew melon). Because it's so snug in your womb, he isn't likely to be doing somersaults anymore, but the number of times he kicks should remain about the same. His kidneys are fully developed now, and his liver can process some waste products. Most of his basic physical development is now complete — he'll spend the next few weeks putting on weight.
