Arimeh have you looked at the Spinning Babies website? They've got lots of info on fetal positioning and helping your baby into a better position for birth. You've got lots of time yet to help that baby move. Try not to stress! It'll be OK.
Oh - and I think that stalking your midwife is a sign that you're clicking well with her. I still hope that I'll run into my first midwife at the grocery store someday. I really loved her, and was SO sad when she moved to a neighbouring practice where she could work part time after she shattered her ankle. I'd love to sit down and talk with her for a while.... I like my current midwife and she's very experienced, but I don't have the same connection with her.
Teni: you are not being silly for sharing your thoughts And FWIW i would *totally* go to the appointment to get the scan images of my baby. that's my baby afterall and i would want all of them!
but i do agree that you should contact your IM and let them know that you went. it can be really weird and intimidating realising that they are there for you. i find it hard to call up my IM even now lol! but it is what they are there for. they are there for you and baby. let your main midwife know, as she will most likely want a copy of the report as well. Usually you can ask the hospital to send a report to her as well (do you have her address?). if not, get a copy of it and give it her at your next appt with her. and seriously, ANY concern or niggle you have, feel totally AOK in calling them they will love and support you so much...it's truly fantastic, trust me xx
Arimeh: oohhh, that would be so full on having a 38 weeker turning lol!
Breech isnt bad Arimeh it is also normal. you can still birth that baby. is your IM able to help you with breech birth? I know that my team are really experienced and when we were worried about DD3 at one point they told me that i would still be aiming for a HB . there are some really fantastic breech birth info stuff out there. if you feel that baby is content to stay that way, i would get reading and arm yourself with all the knowledge you can muster so that whatever decision you need to make it is yours ITMS.
