I went in very optimistic for my external version today. Unfortunately, DD2 was not cooperative. Dr. could only move her about 90 degrees instead of the 120 needed. The whole experience was pretty uneventful though.
DH was surprised Dr was that firm with my belly and the L&D nurse in the room commented that most Docs don't try for so long. Kiddo is just stubborn.
So c-section tentatively scheduled for Wednesday, Jan. 12th. Not the delivery I expected, especially after DD1's easy vaginal birth, but DD2 looks healthy and that's what matters.
Re: Version = Fail, C-section scheduled
I'm in the same boat.
I had a great vaginal delivery with DD. But, this little girl is pretty much stuck in the breech position. My c/s is scheduled for the 13th.
Good Luck!

Had a failed ECV on 1/4. Tried a chiropractor with the Webster's technique on 1/6 and 1/8. The chiropractor got rid of some of my discomfort, but I think baby is still stubborn and breech. My CS is scheduled for 1/19. I'm so very scared of it for me and baby.
On the bright side, I can't help but to think that maybe our babies just like to be closer to our hearts. :-)
Good luck!!!!
