I saw my midwife yesterday... she was certain Jackson was still breech. He's definitely making himself comfortable down in the pelvis, and she was concerned he might have had a leg caught underneath himself as she could only feel one for certain.
I went to my ultrasound appointment today prepared to hear that he was breech, and trying to keep a positive outlook on the increasing probabilitiy of a caesarian. The technician checked with me about where his back usually was, squirted on the gel, put the handpiece (yeah, extremely technical term) onto my belly and said "Head down, nicely settled into the pelvis so we won't get many face shots. Lets take some measurements."
That's right, he's turned! Thank you everyone for your prayers during this time. I have no idea when he flipped although I suspect it was a few days ago. Now I can get on with planning natural waterbirth #4 instead of elective caesarian #1.
Oh, Jackson's around 3kg (7lb). And that other leg my midwife couldn't feel yesterday was tucked up under my ribcage.
