Dont worry! there is still loads of time for him to turn, Zaara didnt turn till 36 weeks (from memomry) and even tho she was head down and bum up, she was looking at the wrong direction so I ended up with a c section (now she is a difficult baby) LOL

We tried the one where you get someone to shine a torch at the bottom of your tummy and the baby is supposed to see the light and turn to have a look at it...yeah right. My son saw us doing it and thought it was a game so we had to do it to him every night for a week...so cute!]]> Wed, 23 Apr 2008 21:09:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16604&PID=364528&title=oh-dear#364528 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16604&PID=364504&title=oh-dear#364504 Author: Shezamumof3

I did the handstands in a swimming pool one - All it did was get water up my nose and funny looks from the other swimmers at the tepid baths.

It provided a great deal of amusement for my friend though. Contrary to what I thought prior to trying it, pregnant women do not float. ]]> Wed, 23 Apr 2008 20:48:04 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16604&PID=364493&title=oh-dear#364493 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16604&PID=364489&title=oh-dear#364489 Author: Shezamumof3

Samara was breech and I was booked in for a c-section ten days before her due date. Two days before the scheduled c-section I went into labour and unfortunately started pushing and the Dr gave me an exam and could feel one of her feet so was rushed for an emergency c-section.

Good luck with the turning exercises - I tried all I could find on the internet and she didn't move an inch!

She said not to book it before my due date cos he might still turn. I asked her about going into labour and she said that they would wisk me away to middlemore hospital right away and do a emergency c-section if I went into labour before my due date.

Yeah hehe well if he doesnt turn, then I will most likely have a c/s on his due date the 10th June, my midwife said not to book it before then cos he might still turn.

Im going to try all these exercises and stuff and when I se eher in two weeks, hopefully he had decided he likes being head down instead of bum down!]]> Wed, 23 Apr 2008 18:02:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16604&PID=364323&title=oh-dear#364323 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16604&PID=364318&title=oh-dear#364318 Author: MrsMojo

My sister did this with my niece, she'd turn to get away from the freeze then once the area warmed up again she'd move back to breech again - stubborn minx!!

Scrubbing floors, painting scotias, and resting/watching tv kneeling with your upper body resting on an exercise ball are all supposed to help.

If he doesn't turn you get to choose his birthdate - that's a cool advantage. ]]> Wed, 23 Apr 2008 17:58:54 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16604&PID=364318&title=oh-dear#364318 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16604&PID=364316&title=oh-dear#364316 Author: james

Lots of the Jan girls had breech babies for a while - we reckon it was all that legs up the wall stuff after TTC But by the end I think Rowan and one other were the only ones left that way round.

So there's a good chance he'll turn for you. There's a thread on ECV lurking around here somewhere if you need to do some reading on it. I'll find it and bump it up for you.

And if worst comes to worst it's not too bad I promise ]]> Wed, 23 Apr 2008 17:35:39 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16604&PID=364302&title=oh-dear#364302 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16604&PID=364287&title=oh-dear#364287 Author: SouthernBub
