Let's flip baby!
I went in for my 36 week appointment today. I was so excited for this – I’m not sure why. Perhaps because it signified the start of actually talking about delivering the baby?!?

I’m back to following a plan. I still don’t know what the main goal will be for this winter/early spring (i.e. which race we’re going to exactly target), but it feels so good to be at least working hard toward something. Yesterday was the start of my strength plan and my first tempo run. Both…
Time to start posting some of the fabulous things I’ve tried/made lately! This is one of my absolute favorite dishes now. I wasn’t so sure, even as I was cooking it, but it turned out great. I’ve made it again recently, this time using red beets (since the true recipe is supposed to be Scarlet…
I knew this wasn’t going to be my best race. Despite how my legs felt and how inconsistent my training has been, though, it went OK. I finished 16th, which was 3 spots higher than I was seeded to finish (they post the personal bests for the elite runners). Two of those three happened to…
I tend to only write about the great workouts and the great weeks… today was not one of those! Today was my first “progression run”, planned to be about a 20-22 mile total run. First, though, MERRY CHRISTMAS, everyone!!! Hope you were able to celebrate it with family & friends & loved ones!! Back to…
Salad Ingredients: 1 beet, peeled and sliced ~2 tsp olive oil to lightly coat beets Walnuts (can candy them if you want, but I don’t find it necessary) Spinach and baby greens Goat Cheese crumbles Chicken, if desired Dressing Ingredients: 1 Tbsp olive oil 1/2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar 1/2 Tbsp lemon juice 1/2 tsp honey…
Jeff, one of Craig’s friends, changed his work schedule around so that he is able to drive down to Northfield every Friday to do a workout. How lucky am I?!? Once the ski season is over, we should be able to have a pretty good sized/fast group training here in Northfield Friday afternoons! Let me…
So I guess that means we're not running on Wednesday…
Best of luck, I'll be praying for you and baby.
Looks like we can schedule 3 more weekly "run clubs" before the c-section on the 15th We'll just have to move the Wednesday run to Tuesday the week of the 15th :).
Sending positive turning vibes your way!!! Just like any race… you've got this!
I tried, they tried. No luck. But — there's a reason for everything. Maybe this just better prepares me for a C-section and I'll be even more giddy/thankful if baby flips and I can deliver naturally!
Just happened up this post and I am asking God to give you a miracle…John 15:7 and Matt 18:19 in Jesus name!! Thank you Jesus for her Miracle Amen.
Thank you for this! I had to look up the passages, they couldn't be more perfect:
John 15:7 If you remain in me and my words remain in you, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you
Matthew 18:19 Again I say to you, if two of you agree on earth about anything they ask, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven
Thinking of you! Ouchies! (which is a word that proves I am not ready for motherhood).
There's nothing wrong with that word! 🙂 It was a little "ouch-y", I will say that 🙂
Fingers crossed for you, Nichole!! Have you done any of the natural exercises to help turn the baby? I had success turning my first child using this site: http://spinningbabies.com/baby-positions/breech-bottoms-up/305-body-work-for-breech. Don't know if it'll work for you (and be careful it might cause you some heartburn/nausea) but it might be worth a shot! Good luck and keep us posted!
I'm on it now!
