Chubby Cheeks and today's appt- updated with some new info

Original post by michele31

I had my 5th sonogram today and the first thing the tech said is 'Your baby is beautiful. Look at those chubby cheeks'


My little one is progressing right on schedule. BUT the femoral (sp?) bone is 1.5 weeks ahead of everything else Scott's DNA is winning So Scott will either be calling UCONN for Women's Basketball or PITT for Boy's Basketball try-out dates in the year 2020

The baby's estimated weight is 6-6.5lbs, which is good and means that my GD is well under control.

Okay, the non-stress test nurse had to say 'Did you know your baby is breech at almost 37 weeks' And the u/s tech also said that to me. Both asked, 'So when is your scheduled section?: I said, 'Yes. I do know that the baby is breech but I still have time for the baby to turn.' I went to a meditation circle last night and had Reiki done (a healing art that is done to promote energy and balance). So I am trying every single thing known to Women to get this baby to turn.

I am not dialated or effacing at all- which is actually good news in this case. We, meaning ME, needs a little extra time for the baby's done timer to pop and the baby to turn.

UPDATE: The doctor said that a turn is not done on a mother with GD so for right now, that option is no longer an option. Of course, I have asked for other opinion but I am doubtful about it. I have 10 days for the baby to turn and then I would need to schedule 'other' stuff. So even though my leg hurts I am going for a walk. I read that it can help the baby turn....turn baby turn.....
