I can't believe I'm 32 weeks pregnant! That is just crazy. We had our ultrasound to check growth today so that we have an idea on her size if she decides to come early like her big sister. She looked great! Check out the very cool 3D ultrasound pictures.
She may be a boxer when she grows up! Here are her little fists--
They aren't the best pictures because she was so big- they estimated 5 pounds!!! and because she is breech :( She had both of her arms and one leg up by her head so it was pretty hard to get a good look at her. The doctor said she is measuring about the same size that Ellie did...around 3-4 weeks ahead of schedule, and she was hopeful that she may turn on her own. She did mention c-section or trying to manually turn her at 37 weeks. If I happen to go into labor they will check right away by ultrasound if she is breech and I will have to have a c-section if she is at that point. Otherwise they will plan to do another ultrasound for presentation at 36 weeks and then we can decide what to do if she is still breech at that point. I've been googling ways to get a baby to turn- pretty funny! I must say I did try laying on a pillow with my feet up in the air. She moved around a bunch, apparently not to happy with that configuration! I also did the headphones on my belly technique where you play music really low and supposedly the baby tries to move towards it. Ha! I hope it works but I'm pretty doubtful that she'd really care about that. So we have another two weeks and we'll head back to the doctor to see how things are going.
