No Go!

Here is the update on Baby Girl Sutterfield! After 3 1/2 hours at the hospital, she did not turn! Must be stubborn...don't know who she gets that from! I went in early this morning and got all hooked up and the nurse started to monitor me and the baby. Baby Girl was great! Good heart beat, etc! Well, I was contracting a little, or should I say, more than normal, so they waited before they started the version. Mom and I just hung out and watched t.v, while I went to the bathroom every half hour (the I.V was filling me up!). By the way mom, thanks for coming with me...it made it easier to have someone there instead of being alone the whole time!

So, 3 hours later, the doctor decides to go ahead with the procedure. I had been warned many times how uncomfortable this was going to be. The Doc tells me he will only try for 2 minutes and that is all, because I won't be able to handle the pain for any more than that. I had no idea what to except, but WOW! When he started moving her around...it was indescribable what I was feeling. The worst was when he was pushing on her head...I really have no words for it. I tried to relax, while my mom told me to keep breathing in the background...I was very tense. So after 2 minutes of this, the doc realizes that Baby Sutterfield has got herself wedge pretty good in my pelvis and there was no way he could get her bum out!

So, we left it at that and decided she wasn't moving! Now, we move ahead. I have one more doctor's appointment next week and we will see if turns on her own by then. We went ahead and scheduled a C-Section for Monday, September 24th. Mark your calendars! ( I had to wait until then, because Eric has to take his test and I want him to be ready for the baby...he has kind of been in his own little study world lately...:) anyway, that is the plan for now...it is nice to have a scheduled date of when our little girl is coming...that could all change if she decides to cooperate...we will let you know.
