Baby decided to flip breech and I'm just 10 days away from due date. I've gone through Bradley Method classes and was set on an unmedicated vaginal birth. This news is absolutely devastating to me. I've tried the positions to try and flip him and have remained active during pregnancy with walking and yoga -- basically everything they tell you to do to get baby into position. I will likely have the version procedure for the doc to try and flip him manually tonight but this isn't always successful and may be painful. It might also send me into labor and if he doesn't flip a c-section is required. In the meantime I'm going to try some voodoo magic at an acupuncture clinic this morning and you'll find me standing on my head while wrapping holidays gifts. Just had to put this somewhere as I'm feeling super down but am trying to remain positive.

And just to add, I've had 2-sections and am about to have my 3rd. You are still giving birth! I work just as hard to give my babies life as a vaginal delivery, so try not to feel devastated.
Good luck to you!

I have been going to a chiropractor for the Webster technique, which is supposed to align the pelvis to ensure there's room for the baby to flip.
I was lucky that my baby flipped 2 days before my scheduled version. Not sure if it was the chiro that did it, but it doesn't hurt to try. (Especially since it has helped w my SI joint pain and I have been sleeping better)
Good luck!!

My c/s is scheduled for 1/16 due to Baby A being breech. Baby B is transverse, not that it matters since A needs to lead the way. I'll be 38+2 so we'll see if I make it that far.
