Back to back at 37 weeks

[beexx]

So I'm 37 weeks. Little one has been back to back for weeks now. I'm getting really really anxious that he won't turn and I'll have a back to back labour. I'm really scared. Does anyone know how common it is for babies to turn before delivery or if there's anything I can try to help him get into position?

Take a look at spinning babies website spinningbabies.com

I've had two back to back labours and honestly it's not too bad! DS2 was out in 6 mins of pushing! No damage to me in either labour at all

I've had back to back labours with both of mine labour was mainly in my back but only 45 minutes long and out in 2 pushes it's not that bad if they don't turn, to be fair though no one knew my baby was back to back

My baby turnt at 38 weeks to back to back 🤨 had him at 38+3 didn't know until I was in labour.
Same as PP my contractions were all in my back which they thought was just labour pain in my back took a 3rd midwife to realise he was back to back. Doctor came in as concerned about HB when contracting and I'm pretty sure he turnt him as midwife said they can turn babies but not given the go ahead to do it and my baby came out the right way 😂. Please don't be anxious even though he got turnt I had a normal delivery without any interventions. I was pushing for 3 hours but tbh I was exhausted and just don't think I was pushing properly at this point.

I'm sure the advice used to be to get down on the floor and wash the floor with a handheld brush or cloth or something, apparently that motion moves the baby but I don't know if they still say that now

Mine was back to back at 37 weeks. I'm now 39.5 and it's now the preferred way round.

My midwife wasn't too bothered when it was back to back and said as long as head down, a lot of babies even change at the last minute.
