Sending many flip vibes your way!!!

Wishing you a head down baby, and no need for the version tomorrow!! Your doing great Mama!

YAY for being term today!!

Congrats on being full term and I hope the version goes well tomorrow.

Thanks ladies!

Reaching term is wonderful... and crazy! I feel like I have been pregnant forever, and at the same time like it has gone by so quickly!

I had an intense acupuncture session today- I guess the guy decided to pull out all the stops...but so far, haven't felt any special movement since then. And I was still getting kicked in the cervix a little while ago, so... I'm really just hoping that the version goes easily and smoothly tomorrow. I have been doing so much to try to turn this baby... I guess I'm just hoping that if s/he doesn't flip on his/her own, then that everything I have done has prepared a good space for him/her to flip easily with some help.

I'm feeling emotional... it's so frustrating to be so different from my DH when it comes to some things... I mean...we both want what's best for our LO, right? But, sometimes it seems that he honestly thinks I'm putting my virtues or morals or something ahead of the well being of our child...like, (no offense to anyone who is) I feel like he treats me like those religious people that don't take their kids to doctors but only pray for them. Like I'm bucking the system just for the sake of bucking the system. Sigh.

We went to the hospital tonight for the tour... I suppose it was good to see where we'll be, etc...but, honestly, it probably made me more nervous than comfortable. It's still a hospital, and the nurse was still a nurse (made some comments about considering drugs, etc)... sigh. Maybe the one good thing is that she and some of the other nurses were so taken with my DH's accent that they seemed more interested in him than me... maybe it'll be the same way when I'm there in labor... I can just hang with my doula, and they can entertain each other...

Hope the version goes well for you and sorry DH is not on board. That would be hard. Is he willing to read anything? For my DH reading actual studies that supported what I believed made him understand. How does he do when talking to your mw? I find my DH is really trusting if my mw says something, more so than if I tell him the exact same information.

What time is your appt this morning? I'll be thinking of you. {{{turnvibes}}}

So we're headed to the version this morning... appt is at 8:30am (1/2 hour from now!). Wish us luck! I'm wearing the blessing necklace that was put together for me at my shower... hoping all these good thoughts and everything I've done so far all makes for a quick and easy procedure!

Moonshine was really active last evening/during the night... but as far as I can tell, s/he's still breech at this mo.

Good luck this morning! *flip baby, flip*
