Hello, I am almost 37w pregnant and my baby has been back to back for a while. Often b2b babies end up needing forceps delivery and I've read so many bad things about it I just don't want to take any risk, considering how safe C sections are nowadays.
So my plan is to try naturally, hoping he will turn during labour (seems most of them do), but if he doesn't, request a C-section instead of forceps. But I am not sure how realistic this is, i.e if the hospital staff will consider my wish; a C section when the baby is too down is riskier, so I need the midwife to tell me honestly when to stop hoping and safely move to C-section during labour, however every time i tried to discuss the plan with them they say 'we will see then' which worries they will let me progress until it is too late.
Wondering if anyone had a similar situation, whether planned or not, especially if they have been to UCLH hospital.
Thanks !
