Well done baby boy

A baby update for those who are interested:
My very obedient son has decided to be head down. We had our 33 week appointment today and the doctor found baby’s heartbeat down low, so that confirms that he’s shifted position. As long as he continues to get comfy in my pelvis, he shouldn’t be going back to breech, which means I can have a normal birth and am not at risk for a c-section. Phew!

Things look good — he’s active and my uterus is growing right on schedule. Weight gain isn’t awful and I’m trying not to really worry about the numbers going up each visit. My blood pressure was high upon first reading but then was good and low after my appointment. I think I might have just been nervous about the baby’s position.

We have our next appointment in two weeks and we’ll take along our birth plan for the doctor at that point. After that we’ll be going every week until the little guy makes his appearance!
