30 weeks and counting
I have no idea where the time has gone. One day I am reading a positive pregnancy test, the next I am taking the elevator instead of the steps at work. What is going on?
Today we had our 30 week check up but we are trying out a new OB. After our last visit with the PA OB I felt very defeated and like they were not even willing to talk about options. Today's visit was with Cherry Hill OB and let me tell you.... it was a great experience. I have not been so happy with an OB practice since I lived in Nevada. The doctor we talked to today was so nice and very informative. When I told her that both babies she said "Well you're 30 weeks so you still have lots of time for the babies to turn." That is the first time a doctor has said anything like that to me! She said that she understands why I would want to do a vaginal birth and that the recovery would be better especially with 2 little ones at home. I have another appointment with them next week and I am going to talk to them about any methods they recommend or have seen work for spinning breech babies. So now, instead of delivering in PA I will be delivering Virtua in Voorhees. Is there a chance I am going to have to have a c-section... yes but do I have a hope that if these babies turn they will encourage a vaginal delivery... yes. Ultimately I want whatever is best for these babies. I want them to come out safe and healthy!
Please continue to pray for the babies and for me as I grow bigger and slower every day. The boys don't really understand what is about to happen, but Joshua is super cute cause he always wants to kiss my belly or talk to the babies. He is already a big help with throwing away Finns diapers of finding a cup, so I think he is going to like helping me with two little ones.
On another positive note, Joshua is doing a great job in the potty training department. He is even waking up from nap with a semi dry pull up. Instead of having 4 kids in diapers, I will only have 3! That's exciting!
