Across the Grain

Today was our monthly checkup.  Im at 21 weeks, have gained 7 lbs total, and have a beautiful, healthy baby in my belly.  This baby however, has decided to lay across the grain”, which makes my life a little less comfortable.  The head is at my right, with its back facing downward, and feet curled up just to the left of my belly button.  The doctor said there is more room up and down than across, but the baby still has plenty of room to move around.  The only time the doctors get concerned with the way the baby is facing is at week 36 - the head must be facing downward.  Hopefully, this is not foreshadowing of this babys personality  always across the grain!
