32 Weeks, Day 3 – Helping the Baby Get Into Position for Delivery

Keeping track of what week you are while pregnant is a pain. A lot of women forget the exact week until they go in for their next appointment. Tracking my weeks should’ve been easier—seeing as I’m writing a blog about it—but I just realized at my most recent doctor’s appointment that I screwed up my weeks after I returned from Europe! Apparently, I forgot a week, so instead of being at 31 weeks, I’m actually 32 weeks (8 months!) along, according to the doctor. According to my calculations from day 1, this would now be on track. In order to make sure that I don’t mess you up in following my journey I need to correct the past month of blogs to the doctor’s date. I believe starting from March 26th the date will be updated in my blogs, so don’t be alarmed!

I had a doctor’s appointment on Tuesday and all went well. The baby is getting big and measured at 34 already. I hold my husband responsible for this as he is predicting a 9 lb baby boy! My son was 7 lbs 15 oz and 22 in. I believe this baby might be a little bigger, but not a 9 pounder. When my doctor measured me she also noticed that the baby isn’t completely in position yet, so I’m thinking that the measurement might be a little off. Also, she told me that I need to return in 3 weeks, then every week after that; if the baby isn’t in position soon they’ll have to physically turn him or her.

Now, you first timers may think you have to do everything the doctor says. You don’t! I’m only 8 months pregnant and have 2 months left to go with plenty of time for the baby to get into position. Right now, looking at me straight on, the baby is positioned downward, with his/her hands off to the left. The head is just left of center, too, with the baby’s back pressed against my skin on my right side, feet kicking into my ribs. This isn’t too far off of where he/she needs to be, so I’m not worried one bit. I can help them further move into the proper position through yoga and visualization techniques.

Birthing position

Yoga is good for positioning the baby and also for you as a mother, as it feels great and helps with relaxation. Here is Amy at Yoga Bellies showing the two yoga positions and acupuncture you can do to help turn the baby on your own: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m7MTaMflkf8. I really like this video with Jessica Levesque of www.EmbracingBirthbook.com. She shows several great moves to help position the baby well before you give birth. Lastly, here is a website that gives several options to helping turn the baby, especially if you know they are breech.

Like I said, I’m only 8 months pregnant, so I’ve got time to work on these positions daily until the baby finally turns. If you’re in the same situation, don’t stress! Talk to your doctor or midwife and try to find out the baby’s current position and use the advice above. I’d do everything in my power to turn the baby on my own before letting a doctor manually do it. Remember, don’t let the doctor pressure you unless you are in labor and the baby hasn’t turned. If you still have weeks to go before labor, you’ve got time.

May you be blessed with health, love and prosperity. ~ Holly
