Breech

31 weeks and my baby has been breech for the past few apts. Is there anything I can do to try help him turn as I’m really hoping for a water birth and today my midwife mentioned a c section if he doesn’t move by 34 or 36 weeks.

That’s crazy to me as you have a whole 9 WEEKS left until due date and that’s a lot of time for the baby to move. I’m 35 weeks almost and at each scan (we have one every 2 weeks) she’s in a totally different position and not once has my doctor been concerned. Up, down, left, right, inside out. I bet he will make his own way to head down and you’ll have your water birth for sure 💙💦 xx

@Emily yes, my hospital booked me for a c section at 34 weeks with my last baby as she was breech still, got to the c section at 38 weeks all ready in my gown etc.. they said "just quick feel to make sure" and she had turned! I didn't even feel it! But then had to wait another week to meet her 🤣

My baby is also breech but they’ve said there’s plenty of time yet so not to worry x

Google spinning babies! Worked for me in both pregnancies to flip them back. But it is common for them to book a provisional date if they haven’t moved by 34 weeks. Doesn’t mean it can’t be cancelled if they do flip though ☺️ x

My first baby was breech all the way to the end and noone mentioned a C section to me. I had a water birth x
