Well, folks...yesterday we went in to have an external cephalic version performed at the local Naval Hospital. This is where you are given a spinal (huge shot that numbs you from the chest down) and two doctors manhandle your belly in an attempt to turn your breech baby. Little Wyatt did not appreciate all of the pushing and pulling and unfortunately refused to turn. It was not a very pleasant experience for me, but I'll be fine...just a few days of soreness (which I can only liken to being beaten up).
Anyway, we are now scheduled for a c-section on July 11th. So that will be the day unless big boy decides that he'd like to come earlier...which is a possibility because as of yesterday I am dilated 1 centimeter and am having moderate contractions every 5 minutes or so. So we'll see...and we'll keep you all updated.

That's great that you've started a blog! I did one for my little girl and people have loved keeping track of her.
