Otherwise I've been told by consultant midwife, midwife and Dr it's a caesarean and I don't get much choice either way after the complications with our 1st child (which I was blissfully unaware of until a few days ago! Thought she was a straightforward natural delivery but apparently not)

Really don't want a caesarean so would be very very grateful for any suggestions

TIA

How many weeks are you?

I was told I was breech at 34 weeks, now at 36 weeks, scan confirmed the baby is the right way round.

I don't think doing anything in particular caused it to turn - I reckon the baby decides what position it likes and stays there.

However I did do a yoga DVD with lots of exercises on all 4s, a couple of doses of moxibustion and a bout of stomach flu, the latter of which made the baby move alot constantly for 3 consecutive days.

There's been a few threads on this lately over the past couple of weeks, so do a search on the website and have a look at the responses.
