| MW Appointment-My little man isnt playing the right game!! Well i had a mw appointment today, when i last saw her my little man was nicely head down and looking like he was going to be heading out in the near future!.........well not today!!!!
Hes moved quite well and is now lying straight across my belly!  
Im so disappointed!!! i really thought that he was going to be early! now i havent got a hope in hell!!!!
Also to top it off i went to get my raspberry leave tablets today and holland and barrett are suffering with a huge shortage across england....so ive ended up with the teabags, which im sure will be awful!
Apart from that everything was fine! Looks like ill be having an october baby though not september liked i had hoped!
Get to see mw again in 3 weeks.........he better have moved or there will be trouble when he arrives!!!!
I went to buy a birthing ball from mothercare, but decided i wasnt paying £17 for a ball!!! so Off to do some crawling around now!......isnt that suppose to help move them??!!!!
Thanks for reading!  Becki xx |

Just a tip too... when I saw the mw, I mentioned raspberry leaf tea, as I have bought some, but not started drinking it. She said that it's ok to rink it if the baby is in the correct position, but if you are trying to move baby, DON'T drink raspberry leaf tea. It's a uterine toner, so it will tighten the muscles of the uterus, making it difficult for baby to get in the right position.  |

| My baby was breech from 28 weeks until my 34 week appointment this Tuesday, I got down on all fours for 20 mins each day (once or twice a day), slightly uncomfortable but it appears to have done the trick according the the MW as she thinks she's now head down.
Good Luck, I hope baby works with you and moves for you soon x |
