Hi
I had my 36 week check up today and baby is breech. I'm getting this confirmed by a scan on Monday.
I realise there is still time for it to turn however I was wondering if midwives know you are breech - do they book your c - section ahead of your due date with a view to delivering at 40 weeks (if still breech) or just wait for you to go into labour and then take you in for a c - section on labour day if baby hasn't turned? How is it managed?
Am trying a few things at home like rocking on all 4's, the torch/music trick etc etc!
Otherwise baby is measuring on time...
I have obviously been aware that things can change during pregnancy but am hoping for normal birth, midwife unit and in a pool! I hate surgery and the idea of recovery time impacting. Those weeks after baby is born. Also with a c section I don't like idea of parting with baby :-( not my plan at all! Fingers crossed this naughty baby turns but want to find out what hospitals do and how they plan?!
