I thought I'd get lucky!

Well it has happened! I didn't think it was going to happen to me, but 44 days left and baby girl has gotten her foot lodged up and stuck in my ribs! It hurts and I am afraid to move certain ways because I am scared I'll break her little leg! Anyone have any tips on helping her vet it out or will it stay there until I deliver? I can just picture the doctor tugging her out of me saying "she's stuck good, we will have to cut you to get her out" lol its not funny but really scary actually!!

That's the worst! My last pregnancy was like that for the last 3 months. My.doctors assured.me he was head down. Nope he was transverse his foot WaS in my ribs and his head was on my other side. I needed a c section and I was furious!!  I was going to attempt a vbac this time but my gf just lost her baby girl attempted one. So I'm def.not now.  Hope your baby moves that's no fu !!!
