The To Do List Gets Shorter

He turned, he turned, he turned! Tiny B is no longer breech! Wahoo!

Yes, I KNOW, many babies have done this BEFORE and many babies will do it AGAIN, but with the parents Tiny B has, and their own particular stubbornness and inability to listen to anyone else EVER, I had real doubts he'd ever do as he was told and make the damn turn.

While I know things could still change, and I know all the labor stuff is still COMPLETELY out of my control, I'm still quite happy he turned. I understand it doesn't mean that things will now go exactly how I want, and I am MORE than okay with that cuz my priority is him coming out ALIVE and HEALTHY, but it's still nice to know that at least for NOW, both he and my body are doing all the things they should.

Wooo!!! My Twin B was transverse for SO LONG and I was convinced he'd never turn, but he did. Unfortunately it made no difference because they were born by emergency C-Section, but I was proud of him in any case.

Awesome!

Now that he's turned, he just needs to grow a little more so he doesn't have room to do it again!

Jendeis said...

Yay! Great early present!

Courtney said...

This is excellent news! So much less to deal with on labor day if he is already head down. Sounds like wheels are already starting to turn on the journey to birth day. So excited for you!

Sheri said...

That is great! I hope he gets nice and comfy and just settles down, getting ready for the big day!

Michelle said...

That is such good news! YAY!

Lavender Luz said...

That's a really good one to be able to check off your ToDo list.

Good on ya, Tiny B.

Yay - congrats on the non-breechness! My little fetal guy is breech too, but then again he's got arse-loads of time to turn his arse around, so I'm not worried (yet).

Awesome! Such good news!

Ruby was breech for the longest time and I remember distinctly when she turned. I was soooo happy. Glad to hear that Tiny B is in position!

Ready for take-off!

That's great news. My little one was still trying to escape with head out the right side and feet out the left side this morning....

Yay for turning!

Great news!

I have a really hard time with the whole labor being out of my control thing. I'm a project manager damn it. An EDD feels like a deadline. The problem is that babies are like the worst employees ever and its impossible to hold them accountable. *sigh*

Yay Tiny B!! See? He's already a cooperative little guy.
