So, I just got back from the Dr. office and here's what was said...
Here is a very good picture of how Lee is supposed to be positioned. At least, this is how the Dr. would like him to be. See picture below.
This is how Lee (the Dr. thinks) is laying. See photo below.
After feeling around my tummy for quite a bit the Dr. couldn't tell if Lee was head down, or bottom down, but he could tell me that he was no where near where he was supposed to be. His head is not down and engaged like it should be (or was for that matter). He needs to be like the first picture. My Dr. scheduled an ultrasound for next so he can see exactly how Lee is laying and what he is doing. He was joking around with me saying that he must really like it in there... LOL! I asked him what would happen if 40 weeks came and went and still nothing happened and he said that we would cross that bridge when we get there, because as of right now it looks like he could be in there for another 10 weeks and be perfectly happy with it! LOL. We'll talk next week after the ultrasound whether we should just do a planned c-section or wait it out a little longer. Steve will be coming to that appointment, so hopefully everything goes ok :D
Other than that, my blood pressure was a little bit high and I gained 2 pounds. Oh, and I'm still pretty swollen (feet and legs) :(
My next appointment is Thursday (May 31st) at 11:45am. That was the only time that they could fit me in. I'll let you know how that goes!

That's how Malachy was. But I think he had dropped he was just facing up. I hope Lee gets in postion soon! But if not I think a scheduled C-section has to be better then having an "emergency" one. Just don't let them induce you! =)
Madison wasn't in the right position either and I was scheduled for them to turn her (which is suppose to be quite painful) and if they couldn't turn her I would have had to have a c-section. Well she turned all on her own! We actually saw it happen too, one day she just went super crazy and my stomach was all over the place.
So you just never know is all I'm saying!
How did your appointment go??
