The baby, he has turned. Hooray! I’d love to say it was something I did, but it wasn’t. Shortly after I started fretting I felt some major movement. The acupuncturist said, “Don’t do a thing. You can turn a baby breech just like you can turn a baby upside down.” So I tabled everything until we got another ultrasound, and that’s when we got the good news.
Tomorrow I’ll be 37 weeks. It’s so nice to be in the home stretch. Doc is projecting seven pounds at delivery and that it won’t be any time in the next few days. I know both of those things are simply educated guesses, but they work for me fine so I’m putting them in the ‘win’ column as well.
The other night Alden put his arms around me and said, “Don’t worry Mommy. I gotcha.” I can hardly stand the sweetness.
Tomorrow I will probably be complaining about work or my hips or the heat, but today life feels awfully good.

Oh! What a sweet boy! Those moments make everything worthwhile.
And yay for head-down baby!

Congratulations on the baby getting ready right on time! I hope the last few weeks go as well as they possibly can!
