We went to the doctor this week and had the first internal exam with our new doctor. Everything was good, but she said that what she was feeling against my cervix was a little softer than when she normally feels a head down there. She said everything else felt like it must be a head, but because of the softness she wanted to do an ultrasound to check.
So we got our first ultrasound since 20 weeks! Her head is definitely down. The softness? Well, it seems she is peering out of my cervix! The softness was an eyeball (or a cheek or something)! If she comes out with one blood shot eye, we'll know why!
After the exam, baby flipped from ROA to LOA. The reason ROA isn't as good is because it's harder for the baby to tuck its chin into its chest and present the most narrow part of the skull to the opening in the cervix. No wonder she was ROA. She was peering out of my cervix trying to see the world and I guess it was easier to get into that position with her back on the right. Well, ever since she got poked in the eye, her back is on the left. I guess she's not so interested in seeing the world now that there was a finger missile coming for her eye the other day! :)
