External Version

(I think that's the name of the procedure we just underwent). A team of 2 doctors, 2 midwives and a nurse gave it their finest shot-yours truly can vouch for every ounce of the effort they exerted- but push as they may Flipster was extremely happy to remain heads up. stubborn 'lil fella. So with fingerprint bruises forming on my belly as I write this, I'm feeling pretty good about announcing that we'll probably be meeting the babe mid-next week via a "designer birth" j/k about the designer birth title. We haven't finalized our plans, as though that would even be possible with a birth, but everyone, including Mark and myself, are pretty sure babe's not going head-down from here on out. I'll continue my handstands, maybe play some music low in belly, but I'll think we'll pass on the incense that filled our house with pot-smelling smoke last night.
For now we're off to the Cheesecake Factory!

You are such a trooper! I just can't believe that little somersaulter is hanging out.....you must have made a really nice home for them and that's why they are refusing to come out....or let's say protesting! Thanks for the updates, we continue to be on the sidelines. Your stories, although not that we are hoping for any of these events, are very entertaining!
