Well, I had another doctor's appointment this morning and it was more encouraging than last weeks'.
I, of course, saw a different doctor and came prepared with lots of "what if" type questions relating to the possibility of a C-section or the baby not turning. As it turned out, this little boy is moving and headed in the right direction, though it can still definitely change.
This week, instead of laying diagonally across my uterus, he is definitely "centered" and head down, just not technically engaged in the pelvis, meaning he is still free to float around in there and do as he wishes. This doctor did not think anything was likely happening regarding any progress and she didn't even check, but she did seem very confident that she could tell where his head was. That was a good sign.
Then she asked again how big Emily was when she was born. So I asked, "Does that mean that this one seems big?" Her response was that she thought Baby boy will probably be in the 8 lb. range (Emily was 7 lbs. 12 oz) So....that could be interesting.
So, that's the update. Hopefully everything keeps heading the right direction...pun intended!
