Hi all I am booked in for ECV on Monday and am starting to get quite worried about it. A lot of what you read online is women having really unpleasant experiences.
I am wondering whether this is down to the nature of the internet (when something goes bad we are all more likely to talk about it!) or even perhaps that when it doesn't work out we might be naturally might be more disappointed?
....or maybe it just is awful!!
All of the NHS/RCOG literature describes the process as mostly uncomfortable and painful for some... so there must be some women out there who didn't find it terrible? Surely the procedure wouldn't be offered if it was that bad?
I know it is the right thing for me to do from a practical/life perspective (lots going on and avoiding a c-sec if possible is preferable). I'm under no pressure from medical professionals to have the procedure. ... I guess I am just after some reassurance/good news stories!
