Natural Birth

Vaginal breech delivery anyone?

Mostly just curious. I've had two vaginal births, and my OB said that he definitely wouldn't recommend a vaginal breech delivery for a first baby, but I'm wondering if it would be ok now that this is my third delivery. I'm obviously way too early to know if this will even be an issue, but its always something I've been curious about anyways.

    Yes, but it was not exactly planned that way...

    Baby had been vertex at 40w2d. Looking back, I think she flipped the day before I went into labor. The nurse that checked me on admission to the hospital missed or misread the position and it was

  • My OB will deliver breech babies. If mine is still breech when I go in for my 32 week appointment next week we'll start doing more of the spinning babies exercises. If she doesn't flip by 34 weeks I'll visit a Webster chiro. If she's still stubborn we'll

  • My OB will deliver breech vaginally, but I know others in the practice are much much less willing and flexible about it. She delivers apprx 60 percent of her patients, so...

  • I personally have decided I would pursue a vaginal delivery if I had a breech baby. It's another variation of normal, the problem is finding a care provider who knows what to do (and what NOT to do) in a breech birth. Thankfully my midwife will be able to

  • I delivered my little man vaginally. He was frank breech. I had planned on having a homebirth but then found out that he was breech at about 34 weeks. We did everything we could to get him to flip but he just wasn't having it! So luckily my midwife knew a
