Breech who?

yes, that's right.. we're finally sure she isn't breech she's cephalic(headdown)! I was so relieved when we saw her on the scan on tuesday. It was also strange to see how big she has gotten, I mean obviously we knew she had grown, but when you see her like that it's like, WOW that's inside my bump! She is actually still moving lots and sometimes it can be really uncomfortable especially when I'm just in bed trying to fall asleep, sometimes it actually hurts so it's not really nice. But then again at least she is moving and we know she is doing ok =)

I started washing all her clothes today so everything will be ready when she comes =) I've packed my hospital bag and hers aswell so we're all ready now=) I think she's going to be either on time or a few days early, but not more. 99% of my family has been born bang on time so it wouldn't surprise me if she would be too =) I wonder why so many babys are born premature these days. I mean on the forum I go to (Bounty) on the Due In April group, 10 boys and 16 girls have already been born and most of them were in the beginning of March, 2 in February and 2 in January! I would be really worried if I had Violet that early.

I do feel alot better about giving birth now. I don't know why I just feel alot more confident about it all. Maybe seeing the ward where I'll be going and learning more about what's going to happen and what can happen has settled my mind abit too=) But I'm just so happy to know I'll be able to give birth to her naturally.

Yay! I'm glad she's not breech. I've always thought that when I have kids I wouldn't feel like I'd actually 'given birth' unless it was in the conventional pushing way. In my mind it would seem like kind of an anti climax to have a caesaerean. But then again, it's probably just one of those things that you can't really make a decision on until you're in that situation.

Keep calm, everything´s going to be allright dear Petra! I like it very much the name you chose for the baby girl, Violet! I´m thinking of you.

PS: I was premature too... I was born at the 8th month.
