as DD was back to back and facing the wrong way which resulted me having a emergency c-section

Dd1 was transverse

Dd2 was breech then turned at the very last mo

Ds was breech

Mine tend to get stuck though as have odd shaped womb.

Can you be specific as there is
transverse where the head is not engaged and this is usually a section
deep transveresse where a baby's head is engaged but baby is OP (back to back) and his head is stuck.... that can come out but it is hard work.

yes i had a transverse pg throughout my pg till i was 36 weeks and babys head was engaged but little i (and midwife) knew the babys head was facing the wrong position and back to back - had an emergency c-section op in the end

So it was a deep transverse.Have you considered seeing an osteopath to see if it's to do with your pelvis shape ?

biglips · 07/04/2006 21:55

well no never really thought of that as i assume that my pelvis shape is fine
