Piper Update...

We had a sonogram today to check her size and to make sure she is not getting too big. Thankfully she is right on track to be about 7 pounds at most so that was good news and definitely an answer to prayers. As of right now my doctor has pushed my due date back to April 13 (instead of the 6th) because at her 20 week sono she was about 1 week behind. So hopefully sometime in the first week of April we will get to meet her=)

We did also find out that she is breech... or semi-breech... basically she is not upside-down yet. Next week if she still has not turned we will discuss options with the doctor so please pray that she will turn on her own this week. I absolutely will not let them try to turn her and I hate the idea of a c-section so it would be ideal that she do the work on her own. She seems to be as stubborn about all of this as both her sister and brother and I was seriously hoping to get one that would just go with the flow and make it easy on me.

On a happier note, we were able to see her little face and I think she is going to look a lot like Belle=) And if I do say so myself, Belle is pretty cute=) My doctor saw her the other day and asked "does she know how pretty she is?". My answer was "unfortunately yes, and she has no problem telling us either".
I think Daddy has his work cut out!

I am so glad that prayers were answered and she is a size that you can handle. I will pray that she turns around on her own this week. Also, Belle is adorable so I cant wait to meet little Piper. She already has an adorable name!
