I'm just needing a bit of advice, I'm 34+2 and have an appt next week to discuss the baby being breech (it's been over a month since he moved into this position)
I'm just wondering if it's worth going for the turning procedure given the low success rate for first babies especially and the fact that as long as he baby's healthy and well I'm not particularly fussed about how he gets out. I've obviously been reading up on c-sections and working out my chances of VBACs for further children but all in all I'm going in there with no preference to how I give birth. This is mainly due to the fact the baby has been diagnosed with Bilateral Talipes already so I'm kind of the opinion he's going to have enough to deal with without some guy stressing him out trying to turn him if he's obviously not naturally wanting to.
I don't know if that sounds really odd or not but I just want some opinions on whether it's worth attempting this procedure as my midwife said it will be offered (and she didn't even seem very hopeful on me having a VB anyway which I thought was pretty odd)
I'm a bit hormonal today so hopefully this makes sense
