Hello everyone! We just wanted to send everyone a quick update. As some of you may or may not have heard, during our last appointment with our midwife, they thought that Lincoln was in a breach position. For those that don't know what that is, it means that his head was up with his feet down. For birth, this is a less-than-optimal position. It was a little distressing because we had planned to give birth at a birthing center and if Lincoln was breach, it would've meant Holly would've had to have a cesarean section. So yesterday, Holly visited her chiropractor who was trained in techniques to help turn babies. After about an hour of work, she came home a little sore but feeling good. Then this morning, we went in for an ultrasound to confirm Lincoln's position. Much to our surprise, Lincoln had flipped over and was in the normal head-down position. I guess he isn't as stubborn as his momma! Okay, maybe he gets it from his daddy! LOL!! Needless to say, we were VERY happy. So here's his updated picture:
If you look closely, this is a picture of his face and that's actually his tiny foot just beneath his little mouth. Very cute if you ask us! I think he looks like his daddy! What do you all think?? The technician did her measurements and he currently weighs 5lbs 12 oz! He is moving along just perfectly. He is actually measuring a week behind our estimated due date (4 July) so he may make his appearance a little later than we had expected. We'll have to see though. Feel free to make changes to your guesses if you feel like it. Alright we love you all and hope to hear from everyone soon! We'll keep everyone updated as we get closer!
