Apparently Baby Swiderski likes to plan things out. That must be why she is breech!! I found out on Monday that she is NOT head down (as she should be by now). At first I was excited because Dr. Block said we needed to to an ultrasound - "Great!" I thought, I haven't had an ultrasound since 20 weeks. Though I failed to realize what all this meant...
As soon as she got the ultrasound going she told me the baby is breech and that we would schedule a c-section. WHAT?!? I'm not having a c-section! I didn't even pay attention during that part of class since I wasn't going to have to do that! I was pretty bummed on Monday feeling like I was missing out on something or taking the "easy" way out. I talked to a lot of people (mom, Trisha, Mary, Kristin K, Kristin S, Kim etc.) and I'm pretty ok with it now. I'm more worried about the recovery period. At least Ryan will be around the first week, then mom will be up for the 2nd week to help out (yeah!).
Though it was funny this am, I was telling Ryan maybe we should think about getting a bassinet for our room since I don't know how hard it will be to get out of bed to feed her. I said, "at least you can get up and bring her to me the first week, but after that I'm not sure how hard it will be to get up every time". I went on from there to say maybe we should look for a bassinet or see if we can borrow one...but Ryan didn't actually hear any of that. He said "wait, so I bring her to you EVERY time she cries at night??". I think he was thinking he might get to sleep through it. OH, funny husbands :)
