Hi
Just got back from my 34 week check, baby is breech and has been the entire time.
My midwife doesn't sound too positive about the baby turning and has actually made it sound pretty hopeless.
This is baby no 2 and I was hoping for a home birth so the possibility of a c-section instead is a quite upsetting.
Midwife is also refusing to do a home assessment which apparently is required, in our area, for a home birth until the baby has turned. Is she just being obstructive? She didn't come across as being supportive when I told her about wanting a home birth when I was 28 weeks. Have been waiting for her to come and do the home assessment for six weeks and today was told the reason she hasn't done it, is because of the baby being breech.
How late did your breech baby turn? Hoping you can all lift my spirits.
