Bernice
This is Bernice, a giraffe in a tutu. It was only a matter of time before a girl entered the giraffe-making frenzy here at the moment. She's made from wool that isn't exactly giraffe coloured, but I'm hoping the long neck is a giveaway to her intended species. She'll be over at etsy tomorrow night with a few friends - finally!
I had another appointment with my doctor today. The little guy is still measuring large and is still breech. There's plenty of time for him to wriggle around, but - and goodness only knows I could be wrong - I've a feeling he's found a comfy spot and will be reluctant to budge. Time will only tell!




your giraffes are gorgeous especially Bernice she is a sweetie!

I love Bernice too. (She's definitely a Bernice! That name suits her beautifully.) Don't give up on your little fellow. Think lots of positive "turning" thoughts. I had a little fellow turn of his own accord at 38 weeks. So, it can happen! (He measured large too and weighed 5.4kg when he finally came at 40.5 weeks.) Good luck!

With a little pouch & tail she could totally be a kangaroo!

Oh My Goodness she is absolutely adorable! I really thought it couldn't get any cuter than the neckties...I was so wrong!!!

Bernice just makes me happy! Look at that cute little pose she is doing. And a tutu? Darling!! You are very talented and I have always admired your dolls.

She is just lovely!
Oh, those little guys can turn around up till the last minute. My second was breech and turned the last week and then turned AGAIN during labor. He earned the middle name Turner.

My daughter was breech from the start, and looked like she wasn't going to budge, but turned around just in time at 36 weeks. Phew!
Oh, and Bernice is lovely!

Oh my goodness!!!! Gorgeous. She looks so friendly too - hehe.

Bernice inspires a deep love within me. Unfortunately [for me] even that love, vast as it is, isn't enough to get me out of bed at 4:15 a.m. my time. Sorry, Bernice. It wasn't meant to be.

Hopefully you'll get some wriggling going on soon but if you don't just being mentally prepared will stand you in good stead. We had a surprise breech. It wasn't what we expected but everyone is happy and healthy. So, either way everything will be fine, don't worry.

I love the colours you choose, they always look so good together. Bernice is a delight!
Hope your little one makes the turn : )

Wow, how did everybody buy them so fast? Between one minute and the next I refreshed and they went from not up to gone.
