37w0d : HE DID IT!!!!

i had the growth scan this morning, and quinn's looking good. he is measuring quite a bit ahead...he's measuring between 38w4d and 39 weeks on all his parts (especially his tummy :). his size estimate is 7#9oz, which means DH wins the bet we took (i bet his estimate would be around 8#4oz, and josh bet 7#8oz).

the BEST part?!?!? quinn has moved into a head-down position!!!!!!!! i was up ALL NIGHT LONG last night b/c he kept doing weird shit. he rarely wakes me up with his movements, but last night was something else...he rarely let me sleep :-) i am guessing he moved head down last night b/c before we went to bed, we were admiring the outline of one of his feet just above my right hip (still transverse with his legs over his head).

though quinn is now head down, he is in a bad position for labor. hopefully, he will get straightened out and facing the right direction soon (he's curled into a c-shape with his spine on my right side and his legs stretched into the left side of my groin (comfy). most importantly, his head is turned so that he's facing my left leg, though his head is engaged in my cervix (he needs to be looking toward my butt for a good labor position)!
