And now I'm freaking out a bit. We scheduled my version for Monday, I'll be 37 weeks which is the day I went into labor with DD. I'm trying anything possible to avoid a csection but am super nervous that if things go 'wrong' I could end up with an emergency csection on the spot. I am at 3cm and have been getting a cm/week, so the Dr feels like once we get him flipped things could progress quickly anyway. Please send any T and P you have to spare my way for a flippy baby. I'd much prefer him to flip on his own by this weekend to avoid to version!
Any version stories would be helpful if you have them from previous pregnancies!

Thanks!!!! How long was your attempt? I know it can vary greatly but I'm just curious.
Damn. I spent 10 minutes looking for a good flip gif and came up with NADDA.
T&P regardless.
good luck to you.
the idea of an e version bothered me too much to schedule one for us. Baby is breech and we will likely have a c/s.
I hope it is successful for you.
When you've been married this long, you need a ticker to remind you.

He wasn't fully breech when they did it so he wasn't stuck In my pelvis so I think only 90 seconds. It only hurt really bad as his head was passing my hip and abdomen area where I had my appendix removed as a kid. I'm assuming there were adhesions that got torn or something. The shot they give to prevent contractions makes you jittery for about 15 minutes but it isn't too terrible all together. It was pretty amazing how far they push their hands into your abdomen and how physical it is, I'm glad they monitor the baby the whole time! Please keep us posted on how it goes. My doctor had said they would only try a couple of times for a minute or two each before giving up, so it won't last forever.
Edit wording
If you haven't already, spend the weekend doing lots of pelvic excersizes to open up that area, hopefully it will either get baby to flip on their own or at the very least increase the chances of a successful version.
