Update on Baby Roper

Yesterday morning I had my 28-week check up. My doctor ordered an ultrasound because at my 18-week ultrasound my placenta was low and the doctor was concerned that it might block my cervix during delivery. Thankfully the placenta has moved up…but…Baby Roper is in the breech position, with his head up at my ribs and his feet up by his face in the style of James Smyth (whom Oakley delivered this way -- bottom first)!!! He is in the “diaper changing position.”

He also was not very cooperative with the camera – he was playing peek-a-boo and kept covering his eyes with his hands. It was really cute, but made it difficult to get any good pictures. Between the feet & hands, it was hard to get a good shot of his face. Graem thinks he looks just like Mason but it was hard for me to tell (and probably even harder to tell from these pictures because I had to scan these so the quality is not the best)! He still has plenty of time to flip into the "head down" position. Here are pics from all of his ultrasounds...
