At my last appointment, our new OB (we switched to a female OB who is wonderful!) discovered that Noah appeared to be 'upside down' and mentioned possibly having to have an ECV, which is typically performed at 36-37 weeks to help turn a breech baby. She recommended having an ultrasound at my next (yesterday's) appointment to confirm whether or not he was breech. Well, the very good news is that Noah decided to turn!! Although it is still possible that he will flip back, we are hoping and praying he stays in the vertex position.

Unfortunately, P wasn't able to see the ultrasound, but the technician was able to burn a CD of some photos, so we have photos to share :-) Our new OB also has a 3D/4D ultrasound machine so we even have a partial face photo :-) He had his face buried again in the placenta (it must be comfortable! :-) so the photo is a little distorted, but still adorable :-)
You can see his little fist up by his face...he is definitely getting cramped in there!
