just had another scan and baby is breech im now 32 weeks and just wondering if i have a good chance it will turn or is there something i can do to help.
thing is this baby is going to be huge its already 5lb. this is my second baby, first baby was never breech. im really scared ill need a c section. do they ever allow a breech baby to deliver normally these days?

spinningbabies.com/. There is lots of time!

Some people do deliver breech babies. But a CS is not the end of the world either, as inconvenient as it might be.

Good luck and get those legs in the air! :)

Mine is breech I too, and I'm almost 33 weeks. I think there's still plenty of time for it to turn, and ECV might be a possibility for you if it is still breech later on? I'm pretty much set on a c-section though (for completely different reasons relating to my last birth) so not too excited about whether it turns or not. But my midwife did say that they don't get too worried unless babies are still breech at 36 weeks. There is loads you can do to encourage it to turn, the spinning babies site is a good starting point, and accupuncture / moxibustion claims an 80% success rate.

I was breech at 34 weeks and by 36 she had turned head down, so I wouldn't be too disheartened. I felt nervous about the prospect as well though. I'm 36w now and baby is ROA so that's given me something else to worry about. Let's face there's always something!

Only 3 to 4% of breech presentations at 32 weeks are still breech at term. Loads of time yet to turn.
