Yesterday morning I felt her flip again and had it confirmed by the midwife at the birth center last night! I'm going out this morning to get a belly band to try and contain her though the midwife said with this child if she wants to turn again, she'll find a way. I'm still going to do everything I can to get her to stay head down though! She was moving so much we got her heartbeat in 3 different spots at the same time! My midwife seriously asked me if I was absolutely sure there was just one baby in there! LOL
I asked if all else fails and she's still breech when I go into labor if there are any docs at the hospital who will deliver vaginally. She wasn't sure but said if I go over well into labor (like 6 cm or so) and tell them I do not want a c-section they'll probably let me go vaginally since this is my third baby. So that was reassuring to hear. Obviously the goal is still a head down birth center birth but nice to know I've got some options if that can't be.
And I just wanted to share--my little sister got married on Saturday during the tons of snow and it was just beautiful! I was her MOH and despite the weather she had a great turn out and all her vendors showed on time! She really wanted snow pictures and she definitely got that! These are a couple from her photographer's blog:

Wooohooo!!!!!!!!!! That is SUCH a huge relief!!!! Nolan turned just about the same time as Lila, down to the day. And if it is any consolation, he is stuck head down and while sometimes it feels like he is trying to turn, he just....can't.
I will keep my fingers crossed that she stays put. I was like you though - I was asking a million "what if he turns back questions" and there isn't anyone in Rochester who would deliver a footling breech (which is the position he kept getting himself back into). So that is great news for you if someone will at least let you attempt it!!
Those wedding pictures are GORGEOUS!

Thanks guys! She originally wanted an October wedding but some family drama pushed it to February and she really wanted snow.
I've got my bellaband on and Lila absolutely hates it! LOL She keeps punching and kicking it but she's still head down! I'm also continuing to put cold things at the top of my belly and shine a flashlight and put headphones playing classical music down at the bottom of my belly. I'm also doing some accupressure stuff. She definitely is keeping me on my toes but I'm hoping she cuts me some slack and stays down! LOL

I hope she stays put and doesn't flip again. I'm off to look at the pictures from your sisters wedding.
The pictures are stunning! She looks beautiful and her husband is very handsome. I'd like to see some pictures of you too!

I'm glad she turned, I hope she stays that way!
On a side note, I've been reading up on patient rights and such (specifically I am reading a book called Born in the USA: How a Broken Maternity System Must be Fixed to Put Women and Children First... or at least I think that is the title). It breaks down each right you have as a laboring woman. One is that you cannot be turned away for care by the hospital if you are in labor until you have the baby, it is called patient abandonment. The other is autonomy... you have the right to refuse treatment, even if the docs think it puts you or the baby at risk. So I might be completely naive about how this really works considering I've never had a child, but if you put those two basic rights together, it seems if it comes down to it and you stick to your guns, they can't force you to have a c-section if baby is breech. At the same time I know some hospitals have policies that directly conflict with your rights to refuse treatment, but you also don't have to sign off to all of their policies.

Thank you for that info Krista! I know they can't "make" me have a c-section but I'm afraid I won't have the guts to refuse if they really try to scare me into it if it comes down to that. I think if she flips again and is breech when I go into labor hopefully she'll be frank breech like she usually is and that position is a good one to go vaginally in. I think having my midwife there with me will be a big help too.
