Getting a breech baby to turn...

[buttonmoon78]

I know it's early days (am only 27wks) but this baby is breech. Everyone says not to worry as it's so early but all 3 previous dcs have settled into position v v early.

#3 was also breech and TBH I was in such constant pain with spd (and off my face on pain relief) that I simply didn't care. He was turned at 37wks and induced at 38wks but I have no intention of doing ecv again.

So, bearing in mind that I am reasonably unable to be very mobile, have no intention of doing anything which opens my pelvis etc, what can I do to turn this baby?

If this one doesn't turn, I'm not sure I'm happy to try a vaginal breech birth so I think it would be a section. Which I'm quite keen to avoid...

I'll also post this in pg.

Try moxobustion acupuncture ive not had any luck with getting mine to move but it has good results.

DS was breech and i tried moxibustion and also a rather attractive exercise that involved me spending as much time as I could manage kneeling on all fours making sure my pelvis was higher than my shoulders! (Think we found lots of info on google that helped.)
Not sure which helped the most but he turned after a week/10 days of putting all this in action and stayed put.
Good luck! Xx

The acupuncture has definately got this one moving unfortunately not into the right position though. Her feet are in front of her face so think she's pretty stuck.
