Yesterday I had another Doctors appointment. She still hasn't checked to see if I am dilated. Why you may ask? Because miss Poindextress is laying at an angle. I have posted before that she is all on my right side, but I was hoping that she head was still in my pelvis. Obviously that was wishful thinking on my part. Her head is basically on my right hip (which explains why my right hip always hurt!) So her butt and bottom of her back are on my right side her midsection is curved towards the bottom of my belly with her head on my right hip. I need her to move!! However, she has been in his position for a really long time so I am a little worried that she won't move. Ryan says I am just being paranoid and he is probably right, but after learning that 1 in 4 women have c-sections I am getting anxious. I am going to start walking a couple of miles every night and hopefully gravity will help her move down!
My Doctor told us that usually with first time pregnancies it takes about 2 weeks to go into labor after the baby drops. I REALLY don't want to go past 40 weeks so in my perfect world she would drop next week and I would have her the week before I am due. However, I realize that no one cares about my perfect world! :)
Any suggestions on how to get her to move her position would be greatly appreciated!!

Samantha, that was really confusing? is she all on your right side? wouldn't that be straight up and down?
Just give Poindextress the time she needs and she will move....I do care about your perfect world....but Poindextress will come when she is ready to face this world and not before...You take care of her and yourself and I'll see you Sat...Love Ya, Aunt Sandy
lauren- her body is on the left side... but her head is at my right hip. so she is laying at an angle. Rather than up and down.
Ok, that makes sense. Sorry, you know I'm blonde and get confused easily, and then you mix left and right into it and i'm just done for:).
Hopefully she moves, but don't let it stress you out if you have to get a c-section. If it comes down to having one, feel free to ask me any questions. I had a great experience and a quick recovery. Either way, you'll be fine and so will your baby girl!
