The Most Beautiful Thing In The World…

!@(soldsign.gif popimg: “SOLD!”) <—- Is this wonderful sign adorning my front lawn! We FINALLY sold the house last Saturday – as an added bonus the couple who bought our house has accepted the May 31st closing date!

Ahhh what a feeling! In 2.5 weeks we’ll be moving to our fabulous new-to-us house in the “old” part of town. I can barely wait. The time is flying by and I really should be packing right now instead of sitting here typing. But alas, my in-laws called last night at 9 pm to tell us they were about 2 hours away from our house (they live a 5 hour drive away). We had no idea they were coming. So there’ll be no packing this weekend until they leave – oh darn, as if I was looking forward to packing…

I had my 30 week mid-wife appt. on Tuesday. Baby is doing well except he/she has decided to flip back to the breech position. My mid-wife has suggested that I have an external cephalic version (ecv) if baby is still breech at 37 weeks. Not fun. In the mean time I’m walking the dog twice a night and walking on lunch in the hopes that gravity will cause the babe to flip. I absolutely do not want to have a c-section. I am VERY pro natural childbirth – no drugs, vaginal delivery etc… I’ll try the ecv if it comes right down to it. Delivering this baby vaginally breech may not be an option ’cause it’s kneeling on one foot, and the other foot is in a “frank” breech position (foot is up by the face). I’ll find out the results of the U/S I had on Tuesday (to determine the location of the placenta) at my next mid-wife appt. May 24th. I’m going every two weeks now – scary that we’re this close to the end. Before I know it I’ll be on maternity leave in my new house looking after a baby and a toddler! Gah! So much responsibility! Only 32 more working days until I have this baby!
