So I attempted the external version on Wednesday. And I won't ever do that again. The experience was the worst & most painful procedure I have ever endured. And after four attempts at turning the baby, it was unsuccessful. I was screaming & crying, and Darren was crying, absolutely horrible. I now have bruises on my stomach, & I'm in a constant state of wondering if the baby is okay. Now we are scheduled for a c-section on June 8th. So we'll be meeting our baby girl sometime that afternoon.
I'm having to change gears a bit. No longer will we be able to fly solo in our first week with the baby. The baby & I will be in the hospital for 3-4 nights. Then we'll come home to be cared for by Poppie & Momma Boo. I'm looking forward to that first week at home together. After that Aunt JoAnn will come help us keep house & home in one piece while we continue to learn to parent our new baby girl. I'm feeling good things coming our way & that Prenatal Peggy is keeping a close watch over her granddaughter.
