Went to see my doctor today for my 39 week checkup and this is one reluctant baby! She is indeed head down but she is sideways, laying on my right side. Her butt and back are along the right side of my belly and her feet are up in my lungs. Doc says that the cervix is nice and soft but that her head is WAY up there. I am supposed to have a little 'talk' with her and get her to reconsider engaging her head so that she comes out someday soon.
I am not uncomfortable or in pain really other than having a nasty cough that I can't seem to get rid of...that is making me crankier than anything. Every time I lay down I cough and cannot get to sleep because of the 'tickle' in my throat that wont stop. Lozenges, tea and water are not helping. I have (sort of) mastered the neti pot to clear out the nasal passages and that is helping. WHY must I have a 2-week long cold on top of being massively preggo? Seems totally unfair.
Sorry about all the complaining. I hope to be complaining about contractions soon instead.
