Just had midwife appt and she is quite sure baby is breech...she says plenty of time to turn as am 32/33 weeks (LMP vs scan dates are a week)....I can't help but feel rather blue about it as am desperate for a VBAC after emcs with DS and I know if baby stays breech, there is no chance

Am sitting forward, birthing ball bouncing etc - what are chances of baby turning?

DS was an unstable lie until about 34 weeks when he turned firmly head down and stayed that way until he was born. It just happened one day and was a very odd feeling but I could definitely tell he was turning Grin

Yes plenty of time to turn esp as it not your first there is more room in there. Try not to dwell on it too much have you seen this website www.spinningbabies.com/baby-positions/breech-bottoms-up/305-body-work-for-breech

Yes I've been on to spinning babies but a bit wary of the flipping position for breech as don't want to put too much pressure on the c section scar iyswim?

I have a v shaped pillow and sit upright most nights, although do put feet up on footstool - maybe I should stop that?? Have a birthing ball as well so think I need to get on that more frequently

Have just queried accupuncture as well - anyone tried that?

I think the chances are pretty good! I had a scan at 31 weeks and my baby was bottom down into my pelvis, head snuggled into the placenta and her feet in front of her face but now at 36+4 she is head down.

Good luck and hope you get your vbac! Smile
