Getting Close

Like a good patient, I went to my appointment at Lion's Gate on Friday. I'd never been there before, but I thought it was pretty nice - better than Victoria General where Anneka was born. I also met Dr. Scally - a very nice, warm man - who basically told me he hoped he didn't have to see me again! The appointment confirmed what I already knew; the baby was vertex again (and has been since Tuesday afternoon). Funny thing is, for me, it's way easier to have the baby breech. The pressure on my pelvis, cervix and bladder is released and I sleep long and deep. Now the frequent middle of the night bathroom trips have returned (and actually worsened) and I'm not as rested. Still, not too bad for almost 39 weeks.

Another focus this past week have been discipline practices for Anneka. I went to a parenting workshop at the Waldorf school and got a lot of good information and strategies. We've noticed an improvement in just the last few days. More about that later.
