Turn, baby, turn!

So, I am now at 38+ weeks. I had an ultrasound yesterday and learned that the baby is in the posterior position. This means he is head down (good) but face up (not so good). Well, his head is turned towards the front of my belly. Justin says he must be a beach bum like us and wants to see the sun too! So, I have to try some positions to get him to turn his head towards my spine. This will make labor much easier for both of us!

I need to post some pictures of our latest "nesting" activities--the finished backsplash in the kitchen, the almost completed deck, and the nursery. I promise to get going on that today...stay tuned, as I will post those online ASAP. Oh, and maybe a picture of me in one of those baby turning positions! :-)

Love the blog! Great way to keep us Michiganders in the know!
I hope you are both getting plenty of rest. Can't wait for baby boy Sorenson to arrive. Push him out, push him out, WAY OUT!

Love, Kerry

Evan was in that position too. I wish I had known that. Pretty hard on your back. But-he came out beautifully! Kerri P

Wow. That seems super uncomfortable. I'll send postive thoughts for some rotation! I can't wait to see pictures of the "nest".
