Hi, i'm hoping for some advice. im just under 38 weeks and after my baby has been frank breech since 30 weeks I had final presentation scan yesterday and talked to doctor about options. My last child was also breech and i had an ecv which did work but the pain was just unbearable that i swore I'd never go through that again.
This time I'm. More concerned as I have an anterior placenta and have found evidence that the risks are much higher due to this.
So why do i find myself feeling pushed into an ecv which is supposed to take place on monday morning.? The doctor was quick to point out that while success rate was only 50% he could have my baby out in under 4 minutes should he become distressed or placenta detaches.
I reluctantly agreed yesterday but have had no sleep all night and jave been so emotional. I have this awful nagging feeling that somwthing will go wrong and im just waiting to pluck up the courage to ring to cancel app :(
Ive never been very good at stating my wishes and feel like im going to end up having to go anyway and they will perswade me to let them.
Whilst this is my 4th baby and id rather avoid a section id much rather have a planned one than an emergency its just getting the point accross i guess.
So confused and worried :(
