During our now weekly visit to the midwife we learned that our little darling, though head-down, is in a somewhat posterior position. What does that mean? She's facing out. Now I believe it's just because she likes the feel of the sun on her face, and when it comes time to meet her family, she'll be a good girl and turn, turn, turn.Why does it matter, you ask? Well, my midwife explained mothers whose babies are face-up tend to push longer, and have a higher risk of tearing, or of needing an assisted delivery or a c-section. But, my midwife and doula both said that babies turn all the time and I shouldn't be at all worried. Yet. But just in case, Will is gonna keep on croonin'.
