(re)Version … or not
Apparently, The Girl is stubborn.
After last week’s version, she flipped back to a head-up position. So back we went to the hospital last night to try again, this time with the goal of inducing labor after the successful version in order to avoid further baby flips before the due date one week off.
Three attempts later, she was still head-up, spine-across. Stubborn, this one. So we’re in for a scheduled C-section on Friday morning, preceded by an attempt at a version following full spinal anesthesia to relax the abdomen. That’s apparently a far more statistically successful maneuver than the normal version technique, so we hope that it works. A successful version would be followed by immediate induction of labor rather than a C-section.
So we’ll have a daughter on Friday one way or the other!
