c/s to be scheduled

it'sbabytime

Me too.

My little guy is still breech and Dr said the chances of him turning on his own at this point aren't very high so she wanted to get me "in the books" and they will be scheduling my c/s.  I still have the option of trying the aversion procedure at 37 weeks but she explained its about a 30% success rate and that its uncomfortable and painful. That being said, she is good with me either trying aversion or just going straight to c/s. She gave me tips on positions to try and make him turn and also mentioned accupuncture but dont think I want to go that route.

I'm kinda bummed, I didnt want a c/s at all and hoped I'd just go into labor and after today's appt I feel the chances of him flipping on his own aren't good. ugh.  Just when this pregnancy was smooth sailing, there had to be something pop up at the end!

It's always something with us IF girls, isn't it? I am crossing my fingers that he turns!

What a bummer. I'm sorry.

Hopefully he'll turn on his own so you can avoid a c/s.

I hope he turns on his own for you!

So sorry!

Have you tried a chiropractor? I know 3 women who had babies in breech positions, they went to a chiropractor and all of their babies turned after getting adjustments!

If you choose to try this make sure you go to a reputable one and who has experience working on pregnant women. Good luck!

I'm holding out hopes he turns for you so you can have a natural birth, but I'm praying for whatever is safest for you and LO!

I'll be keeping my fingers crossed that he turns. My gal is breech as well but the MV at my last appt told me she has "plenty of time" to turn. Hopefully she's right but I'm still doing those positions & other things to tryto help her move.

I've got one head up as well and a csection on the books. I hope he turns but if not at least we have an end date and the goal of a healthy LO in our arms!

Have you ever tried acupuncture??  I swear by it.  And I know my old practitioner in California said that he could get a breech baby to turn.

I"m sorry, but I"m still crossing my fingers that your LO flips so you can avoid the c/s.

My little guy flipped back and forth till 37 weeks and stayed down at 38 weeks. Don't give up hope. GL!

I'm sorry he hasn't turned but you're right - it could still happen or you could get him to turn manually! Crossing my fingers for you! Either way you're getting so close to meeting your LO and that is awesome!
