Dr. Tracy thinks that Baby Keegan might be breech (his head is up, not down). Rona wanted to avoid any more ultrasounds, but we’re going to get one done on Monday so we know for sure which way the little scamp is facing.

If he is indeed now sitting on his bum instead of his head, there are things we can do to encourage him to flip back around. We thought Zoey was breech, too. Rona had moxibustion done the morning of Zoey’s ultrasound breech-check day, and she was just fine when we took a look. If Keegan is breech, we’ll do moxa and other things to get him flipped back around. There are several non-invasive methods with very high success rates.

If he is breech and stays that way, it makes an intervention-free home birth much less likely. We’ll keep you posted.
