Recent midwife app
I have an appointment today at 34+6 and baby is still breech, I was told I’ll be seen again in two weeks and if still breech I’ll be sent for a scan. But midwife did say there would be an option for a vaginal breech birth, has anyone opted for this and how did it go?
Another thing that came up was that I was measuring 2 weeks behind and I know the measurements are to be taken as a guide and not exact, but due to my age (42) I thought one of the concerns are that the placenta is more at risk of not working as well particularly at the later stages of pregnancy, would anyone have been expected to be sent for a growth scan? Am I overthinking it?! 😬
TIA xx

Yeah my baby kept flipping. One week i was scheduled to have a csection then she flipped and then they said i could natural and then she flipped again, by 40w1d she was in the right position

They can do a growth scan which can also determine if baby is still breech. If u feel hiccups extremely low in your pelvic region then the baby has flipped. Also more kicking near your belly button (harder to be sure). It is normal for babies to not turn until 37+ weeks. It's not unusual to be right side up still,. something like 20% still haven't turned
