so, here i am, at the hospital today. that was my very first medical bracelet and i was incredibly excited about it! the doctor gave me a shot in my arm that made my stomach muscles loosen (that way, she could maneuver the baby easier). then the doctor proceeded to push on my stomach as hard as she could. there were little tears coming out of my eyes, but i didnt make a peep! the doctor managed to get the baby's head dislodged from my ribs, but not much more than that. after about 10 minutes, she decided that the baby just wasnt going to move. that was a lot of pain! i am kinda sad it didnt work, but at least the baby is happy and healthy in it's little breech position. so, unless the baby decides to move on its own in the next couple of days......... c-section around the 1st of february!
