Transverse

Soo my doctor hasn't given me an ultrasound since my 20 wk anatomy scan and I went to a 4d ultrasound tech to get pics/confirm sex. The doctor said she was breech by hand measurement and the tech said she was transverse. I still feel that she is even though I'm 35+5 and consequently I'm suffering the worst pains.  I literally feel her hands running aross my belly button and can view it happening.  My doctor refuses to check me any futher until I'm 38 weeks and honestly I'm considering finding another ob. Anyone else dealing with something simpler???

I would find another dr. My lo is breech also and I was told bub needs to be turned PRIOR to 37 weeks incase you naturally go into labour.

Thx. Everyone told me to find someone else. He just seems unconcerned and I'm suffering in the meantime.

My baby is transverse... but I'm only 29.5 weeks. I'm not yet concerned. If I were you, I would tell my doctor my feelings in detail...then if they disregarded my thoughts, check to see if you can switch that late in your pregnancy.

Thanks for the advice ladies. I didn't want to be that cranky preggo but the pain has just gotten worse. Oh my 4d ultrasound was done at 32wks. So my doc has known and just shrugged it off. This experience with him has ruined any chance of me wanting to having a third:(.
