34-weeks

We are really starting to countdown the weeks, and now days, until Shelby gets here.
At my checkup this week they told me that she is still breached and that if she stays that way at 36-weeks then they will schedule a c-section for November 29th or 30th which will have me at 39-weeks.
I'm not freaking out about it because it is what it is.
Time will tell but I've decided I'm only concerned with a safe delivery.
One thing is for sure. 
Baby girl is moving around like crazy! It's so surreal to feel!
Other than feeling tired and uncomfortable, things are good. I've gained 22-pounds overall and I've been blessed with little or no swelling. I even still have my wedding rings on believe it or not!
I guess the only thing I really have to watch is how much I eat at night. Getting too full is a recipe for disaster. I can't breathe and feel sick uncomfortable.
This weekend we are going to continue to put the finishing touches on the nursery, buy items we still need, and spend time relaxing and visiting with family.
TGIF!

I think you should so all of those old wives tales trying to get her to turn and report back! I hope she turns! xoxo

Wow...I hope you don't have to deliver at 36 weeks. Are there other complications?? I didn't think breech was anything to worry about until after 37 weeks? Lots of prayers to you!!

You look beautiful! I gain 54 lbs w T and then about 33 with Maci. So far I'm on a good path and hope it stays that way ;). This will be my 3rd c-section! Each recovery period thus far was different but not too bad. Love feeling baby move around!

I had a c-section both times. The first one was not planned but the second one was. In terms of a tale of two deliveries, the second one was a much easier process. Whatever happens, will be fine. My son was born at 37 weeks, and my daughter at 39 weeks.

CUTE picture!! How exciting!! I will be praying for a safe delivery! Shelby is a cute name :)Thanks for the encouragment on my end. They said to brace myself that its highly possible they will freeze for me on this cycle and yes, put the embryos in me down the road but since they aren't sure if I will get OHSS or not, they might do egg transfer as planned. You are right. Rollercoaster for sure!!
