Transverse head to right - 35 weeks

[rosiebutterfly]

Hi all, never had this before but today I’m 35 weeks 3 days, 36 weeks Monday and I’ve had a scan today and they have said baby is laying transverse, head to maternal right.
has anyone else had this and baby has turned? I’ve read that you’ll have to be admitted at 37 weeks most of the time and have a c section but I’ve spent 9 months convincing myself to have a vaginal birth ( traumatic first birth ) now I have all these thoughts in my head.
has anyone also had a small baby? But first one was quite large? My husband is 6’5 and I am not small, but this time around my baby is also on 15th percentile and my daughter was 99.8% so I’m just worried there’s something wrong but they said he’s tracking normal but the ultrasound tech did ask when I’m having a midwife appointment I’m assuming they’ll read my notes and advise next steps? I will refuse that procedure to turn baby aswell as I don’t want to do that just looking for some advice thank you x

I know I’m really confused I did mention it again today that I’ve seen all over the internet people are usually admitted at 37 weeks and that’s when she said about that there’s a small risk of cord prolapse and went into all the things to do if I go into labour, all feels quite uncertain to be honest and don’t want to do any ball exercising or colostrum harvesting etc because I don’t want to bring on any labour it’s so tough, although I’d prefer to be at home I’d actually feel safer at the hospital as it’s all very scary and uncertain right now

My 4th was transverse I was admitted at 36 and had c section at 37 weeks due to reduced movements.
I was already booked for c section at 37.3 due to previous complications.
Number 5 was also transverse but this time my consultant did my section at 36.2 so I didn’t need to be admitted

Ho are you both doing today @rosiebutterfly?

Thanks for asking! :-) I had a midwife appointment last Saturday still transverse, I have a scan today - guessing this is the deciding factor as I am 39 weeks on Monday with a consultant appointment a few hours after the scan eep, I keep telling myself baby has to come out one way or another just can’t shake the petrified for c section feeling/ who knows he may engage, but even how inconsistent he’s been worries me aswell lol he might flip back and then I’m in even more trouble 🥴

Hope he scan went well today

he turned!! I can’t believe it! lol so c section off the cards again for now 😂😂

That’s wonderful news! Thats exactly what both of mine did only they did it a little earlier. Bet you’re looking forward to meeting him now?

Just to let everyone know little man was struggling and after ctg monitoring for 13 hours they decided to get him out via c section, the c section was an incredible experience and have no idea why I panicked so much in the first place, i had no complications and it went as smoothly as possible so happy

@rosiebutterfly Congratulations! Lovely news. Enjoy him.

Congratulations @rosiebutterfly That is such lovely news
