Not really. I don't have much of anything to say. My life consists of the kids and TV. I did start reading a new book today on a school in NYC (I think) that doesn't allow any type of ADHD medicines and allows students to self-manage and self-direct their learning (and they get lots of gross motor and free play time). It's pretty interesting. I personally like the traditional classroom atmosphere, but I can see where some kids would really love this type of environment, particularly those not well-suited for the traditional classroom.
Appointment today. Well, she was running late as she always is on Friday, so she was in a big hurry. She said she thought the ultrasound overestimated the size and I agreed ( my belly is much smaller than previous times I have been pregnant). She said last week I was 2cm, 50% effaced and still posterior (meaning my cervix of course). Then she said it was about the same this week. She started to leave..
"Is the baby still breech?' I asked.
"Was it?" Tone of surprise. " What did the ultrasound say?"
"They didn't say in the ultrasound, but you said it was."
She reached down and pressed into my abdomen.
"No, it's head down now."
I muttered something about thinking the head was pressing into my hip instead of my cervix at times, and she said that was quite possible since it was still floating high (I may have weeks left to go).
But now I am totally confused. I woke up absolutely CERTAIN the round "bouncing" ball at the top my chest was a head. I KNOW it wasn't the butt. But I guess it was a foot or knee or something. I feel bad about all the poking and pushing to try and get the baby head down. I really hope it doesn't get a deformed face from all the prodding.
I am sure when she felt my cervix, she felt the head or she would have said something. But, honestly, I am baffled. Did I worry all week for nothing?
When is this baby going to come? I should hold off for one more week before trying "stuff" (cohosh isn't working), like castor oil, but the anxiety is getting to me.
