Transverse baby

[sarahc336]

Hi, anyone have any experience of having a transverse pregnancy after 34weeks. I know there's still time for them to turn but they're feeling quite comfy in there at 34 weeks 😄
The nhs website says if they're still transverse after 37 weeks they might have to admit you to hospital, I really don't want this at the moment obviously with covid dnd having no child care for my 3 year old as partner would simply struggle to be off work at the moment. Just wondered firstly if your baby turned amd second did you have to stay in the ward, thanks 😄

I think if they haven't turned by 37 weeks they don't make you stay in hospital they just book you in for a c section around 39 weeks

This is what happened to me. I had my baby turned by ECV. It worked but he turned himself back again within days. Booked in for c section at 37 weeks. Think this is pretty standard.

My baby was transverse at around 33 weeks but I managed to turn her using some of the ideas off the 'spinning babies' website. There are some videos on YouTube as well. I did the 7 forward leaning inversions in 1 day activity and it did the trick. She went head down and stayed that way for rest of the pregnancy.

Thanks guys, yeah I've decided to start trying the spinning babies exercises as I've heard good things about them from friends with breech babies. Sounds like they just book you in for a c section then rather than making you stay in which is good, especially in the current situation 😄 thanks xx

Mine was transverse 37 weeks. They talked about admitting me if he didn’t turn but because I lived a reasonable distance from hospital they just gave me advice on what to do if waters broke (down on floor, bum in the air, call ambulance) On the day of the ECV he turned
