Breech

Baby Boy is breech at this point and has been for a while (the entire time?).  If he stays like this and doesn't flip, this means Mama Rudd will have to have a C-Section.  Dr. Cowboy Boots (Bryan's name for him because he wears cowboy boots with his scrubs) said it is very possible that he will flip between now and delivery, BUT at 32 weeks, if he hasn't, we are going to go ahead and schedule a C-Section.  We will schedule it at that point because apparently they book up pretty quick.  If he happens to flip at any time, we will cancel the C-Section.  I feel no certain way about having a C-Section; I just want what is best for my little munchkin.  If he is meant to come into this world that way, then that's the way we'll have to do it.  I have tried and am trying to keep a very open mind about having a baby.  I know every baby and mommy's body is different and so many things will be completely out of my control.  The strangest thing to me is that we are already talking about this.  My next appointment (in four weeks), I will be almost 30 weeks, which means two weeks later, I will go back to see if we are scheduling a C-Section.  This pregnancy really is flying by.  I'm sure I won't feel like that in my 8th or 9th month, but at this point, things have gone by pretty quickly.  

Oh....I also had my first stranger acknowledge me being pregnant today.  A man that works at the convenience store said to me, "What's up, Baby Mama"?  It made me laugh out loud.  I see people give my belly the eye, but no one has been brave enough to make a comment.  I don't blame them.  Even if it is VERY obvious to me that someone is pregnant, I still get nervous about saying anything about it.  You never know. :)
