Breech at 37 weeks

hey all. Our sweet little girl has turned breech on us. She is already looking like she weighs 8 lbs so an ECV is our only medical choice to try to avoid a c-section. Anyone else having or had an ECV? What are some things I can do to maybe help encourage success? I'm doing all the at home techniques to try to get her to flip on her own. I go in for the ECV tomorrow. Really hope it doesn't induce labor since my doula, and my parents are out of town and my sister who is a different type of nurse is working tomorrow.

  • My boy has been breech for weeks. I started going to a chiropractor because version was super expensive plus I have anterior placenta and I was worried that it would likely induce labor or cause issues. So We are trying the chiropractor and if he doesn't turn by next week we have to schedule a c-section. We are praying and believing that he will turn! Good luck girl! These babies do whatever they want though.  
  • I did accupuncture and moxibustion when I learned that my 3rd was breech at 37 weeks. I had just two or three sessions and went I went in for the external version, she had flipped.
  • ECV wasn't successful. having a a hard time finding a chiro who will do the procedure and for not an outrageous amount. going to start going to a pool and try some exercises in the pool along with other techniques we found on Spinning Babies. She has a 1.5 weeks to turn on her own ohterwise we have a scheduled c-section.
