37 Weeks!

After 6 days in the hospital, going back into labor each time this IV drip of anti-contraction meds slows down, I am ready for this baby to come out!  Since 37 weeks is considered full term, and my mom is due to arrive in Korea in just 3 hours, it is time to make a change.

Tomorrow morning around 10am (9pm on Sunday, EST) my doctor is going to attempt an external cephalic version and attempt to manually flip the baby.  It is our prayer that if it is going to work, the baby would turn easily, and if not - we won't force it - but go ahead with a c-section.  There is some risk involved, since the baby's placenta is on the anterior side, but it is sill possible for this to work without any problems.  Pray that - no matter what - the baby will have a safe delivery!

Below are pictures from this past week, click to enlarge!

sweet treats! to satisfy this Momma's cravings!
 Apparently my family likes to match.. so I gave in. ;)
