Breach baby

Had a growth scan today and baby is breach. At last scan they were transverse. Is there still a good chance they will go head down as I was surprised they've gone from transverse to breach in four weeks!

Baby is 90th percentile and estimated 4lb11oz today. I also have high BMI so unsure if this will make any difference as more likely/less likely.

I had an emergency section with my first and been undecided what to do this time round..

How far along are you? Most babies settle for cephalic in the end. Sadly mine did not haha

Given it’s not your first and the baby has already moved positions, I think they are very likely to move to be head down for birth.

My second was breech right up until nearly 37 weeks. He turned by himself, which I had no clue about. There's still time

My first baby was breech - the midwife told me 9 in 10 babies will turn by 36 weeks and very few stay breech. Mine did though!
