Hi everyone.
I'm 37 weeks & had a scan last Thursday to confirm baby is still in the breech position.
It has been like this for some time now and my midwife says it is unlikely to turn without assistance.
I've got an appointment this week for an ECV, but i'm really not sure if i want to go ahead with it or not. My feelings are that baby is in this position for a reason and why force it to turn around if it's happy up the wrong way. I know it means a possible Caesarean but I've plenty of help on hand should this happen.
I've left it too late for holistic therapies but have been trying various positions and manoeuvres to get baby to budge but no luck so far.
Is anyone else out there in a similar scenario? I'd love some opinions or experiences on this as i'm in a real quandary as to what to do!
