ECV or c-section?

Went in for reduced movements today and had a doctor do a scan of baby’s position, she has turned breach. I’m 37+2 they have booked me in for a provisional ECV. O was told if I want a section instead I still need to go tomorrow and tell them so they make me a plan.
does anybody have any experience of either of these please

I have to add baby is measuring big, I have extra fluid around baby and an anterior placenta

I chose a c section. I also had an anterior placenta which makes it less likely to work plus increase the chance of complications.

Whilst I wish I'd been able to have a vaginal delivery DD was born safely. It's such a tough decision.
