Baby’s position changing

I'd be keen to try a vaginal birth if this bub is extended breech, but given how big my babies are it might not be an option. Both gremlins were footling breech at one stage but they turned earlyish.

I think texting your m/w is a good idea Wendz, it can't do any harm and better safe than sorry.

ella was breach and the times i ended up in hosp were due to her moving from sitting breach to going across my tummy....OMFG the pain and concern!

She was never going head down tho and never did so at least yours knows the way down already and hopefully will go back down if breech! without too much effort!

Hehe you should talk to wrxchic who gave birth to a breech baby who turned that way the day before she went into labour! Eek!

Nah seriously, I was going to be booked in for a c/s with a transverse breech bub but he turned at about 35-36 weeks to head down but posterior. Apparently subsequent babies just go along doing their merry own thing and can turn and engage in labour, whereas first babies usually do it earlier. I reckon just talk to your m/w. How are you carrying? I was carrying really flat with Jack as he was stretched right across. Someone said one way to tell was if your bump is bigger above your belly button than below, then bubs is head down as the big bit is usually the bum and legs (head will be far enough down that you can't see the bump of it). Hope that helps a bit, or at least doesn't freak you out any more!
