Thanks girls
Sorry seeming so negative today, but i am just a mess...
I called the ultrasound dept at the hospital. Apparently they signed off the results at 2pm and my MW will get them within the hour. So i called the MW. She is doing home visits today and will try to swing by the birth center later tonight to let me know. i told her about my placenta (anteriors are notoriously known to cause posterior babies, which is the satan of all births IMO, DS had anterior placenta and was posterior and, well you can see my birth story in my siggy), anyways, she said "Try not to worry too much about the placenta. The techs can be weird but i have never seen one withold the sex of the baby! Thats so weird. And we will talk about the placenta and different thing we do to try and get the baby up front." ...needless to say i am thinking fat chance because i did EVERYTHING you could do for that (with isaiah) and NONE of it worked...in the end if the baby wants to face the placenta, they will...ugh...
Ah is that what they call it and why? All they said to me was he was sunny side up and the hardest type to deliver. I had no idea it was a thing or u could tell ahead of time hmmmm. But I am praying that never happens again. Not fun.
Well there are various reasons why a baby would be posterior (thats the official name for "sunny side up ) But only 5% of babies are born this way...lucky us anyways, having an anterior placenta certainly does NOT gurantee a posterior baby, but its pretty notorous to cause it. Hope we both are the lucky ones!!! Apparently they like to face the placenta and thats why they cause them so much, but ya never know we could get blessed and have a "normal" presenting baby
