And...

They are going to turn the baby and induce Friday at 9:30am. I'm not looking forward to it, BUT, at least I kind of know what to expect. They may also invert and bind me after the version to keep him from flipping back, and there is still a decent chance I'll have to have a c-section. Unlike last time though, I know I can clean the house, make sure laundry is caught up, and stock up on library books to read during early labor!

FORGOT TO SAY: The U/S tech forgot to note where the cord is, if its above the baby,no problem, but if its below, they aren't going to mess around and will go straight to a c-section.

Praying for you, Bonnie. Have Braden or one of your sibs let us know how things go. I too am praying he turns on his own. But if that doesn't happen it's good to know your doc will do what's best for you and the baby. Yes, you need to take a nap! :}

Thanks so much for letting us know. I admire your peace and laid-back attitude about it all! I vividly remember last time, when it wasn't quite so laid-back. :) I'm not saying YOU weren't laid-back, just the situation!! :)

How wonderfully exciting to know that so soon, you'll be meeting your new little one face to face!

Oh, Bonnie, I am so sorry. I will continue to pray that all goes well with you and your little bambino. Just continue to rest on the Lord; He is trustworthy.

I'm still praying that the baby will turn on his own, and that you'll have an easy time of it.

last time? Did you have a c-section with your last too?

Oh drat. Turning a baby, I hear, is no fun at all. I was thinking you were going to have a c-section. And c-sections are sounding pretty wonderful to me right now. I think you might beat me after all. STiNKer!

can't wait to meet your little guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
