Breeched baby at 38 weeks
I went to the doctor a 4 days ago and they told me my baby is still breeched and they was giving him a week to turn and if he doesn't I'm going to get scheduled for a c section. Is there any way to turn him without hurting him? Last night I felt a lot of movements kinda like he was trying to turn, and it felt like he was sideways with his head in one side and butt and legs in the other, but when I layed down on my back my belly looked like it was a triangle shape.? Does anyone know how he could of been laying? Today when I lay flat on my belly it's just all flabby feeling not hard at any certain places or anything.
A trained midwife can help turn the baby into a better position. It is possible to deliver a breached baby as well.It happens everyday all over the world with out C section.Do not allow the doctors to bully you . Do your research about options NOW.
I'm in the same boat except 35 weeks, have a look on spinning babies or Google - forward leaning inversions, breech tilt, pelvic rotations, using an ice pack on baby's head and heat in pelvic area, playing music etc. I'm trying to get mine to turn as I really don't want a section. Good luck!x
