I'm 39+4 so labour could be any time soon! Baby was breech for weeks so I went for a scan a couple of weeks ago and she had turned. However my midwife last week said that she thinks she's now lying back to back.
I've been doing all the spinning babies exercises, but IF she doesn't turn and is still back to back during labour what do I need to know? For example I've just read a thread about the use of keilands forceps which I now definately do not want, however I wasn't aware of this a few minutes ago! I feel I need to educate myself on what could happen do I am prepared and can make the best choices.
I was feeling ok about the birth but now getting worried that it's going to be long and painful and distressing for baby.
