Hi all

I was wondering when they would book me in for a c section of my baby still hasn't turned?

I'm currently 35 weeks and my lil girl is lying across me causing severe nerve pain so I'm unable to walk. My stomach hasn't got bigger in size in a month tho she has (weird) I have a consultant appointment in a few days to discuss a c section but was wondering when it would be x

DD was transverse. Diagnosed at 36 weeks (I was lucky to be spared the level of nerve pain you describe), tried an ECV - she was turned successfully, but turned back that evening. I was booked in for an ELCS at 39+1 to avoid breathing problems. Just to warn you, I was hospitalised for 10 days beforehand as my consultant was worried about me going into labour (I didn't); I don't know if that's still routinely suggested; it was strongly suggested, we only live 4 miles from hospital. It was a very dull 10 days!

Hello my little boy was breech and they booked my c section at 38 + 6. I hope all goes smoothly for you.
