The date is set!

We have our c-section scheduled for next week. We weren't originally planning to have a c-section (I was actually looking to avoid one at all costs), but unfortunately the baby is sitting like this inside me:



The literature on c-section deliveries for breech babies is a mixed bag. But, I trust my doctor and I know he (the baby) will be fine. Apparently my doctor participated in a clinical trial of breech births during med school, and has delivered more of them than your average doctor. He recommends a cesarean birth, especially with this type of breech presentation.

Oh well. Maybe next time I'll have a more cooperative baby?

Sometimes I hate Utah, sometimes I love it. Today, I love it.

I have a feeling this blog will become a "baby blog" in the next 3 weeks.

Because I'm not wise to the ways of yeast, we decided to try a yeast-free crust (we made a few alterations: 1/4 c. more water and garlic salt in lieu of sea salt). It turned out just great.

99°F + stinky lake + 1,000,000 brine flies = worth it
