I'm a FTM to be and my little ones in the extended breech position, I'm currently 36w2d.
I've been booked in for an ECV on Friday and I'm really nervous, I really hoped for a natural birth as I have heard from many people that the recovery is usually quicker than that of a c section. I really want to breastfeed and I know if I am to I may have to persevere that bit more if I am to have a caesarean.
Also I have a few questions for the person on the day of the ECV such as how many they've previously performed and that I don't want it doing in a rough manner if that's the way they're going to do it.
I haven't really been given any instructions regarding the ECV such as what not to eat or drink on the day or if I have to fast beforehand but I haven't been given any instructions on the preparation.
Thank you to anyone that can shed some light, I haven't really set out my queries as questions, sorry!
