Ultrasound and Doctor Visit

We had an ultrasound this morning. Dr. Draughn wanted to get one more during the third trimester so that we could see baby's spine a little better after the bones have hardened. Everything looks great! The sonographer could not find the hemivertebrae nor the spot in the heart! PRAISE!! We did however confirm my suspicions....He's Breech...He still has time to flip though. Dr. Draughn says he does not really worry about it until around 34-35 wks. I've been feeling him "tap dance" on my bladder! Baby is still measuring pretty big. Estimated weight according to measurements today says 4 pounds 2 ounces. Average 30 weeker weighs 3 pounds. Fluid looked good around him. We even saw hair on his head!!! He was even practicing breathing (he's getting ready for the outside!)
~heart rate 145bpm
~fundal height 35 cm (4 1/2 wks ahead)
although Dr. Draughn says that breech baby's measure bigger b/c of position
