when is baby breeched?

Question

I'm a ftm and I'm 32 weeks and will be 33 weeks at my next doctor's appointment. My last appointment the baby was not head down yet. At what point do they consider the baby breeched and decide you will be having a c-section?

Answer

My doctor said she isn't worried about it until 36 weeks.

Answer

My doctor starts to monitor at 32 weeks because most babies do flip head down by then. If still breech at 36 weeks will schedule ECV or C-section. Of course baby could flip after that and still allow for vaginal delivery but it gets less likely as they get larger, especially if they haven't been flipping on their own.

Answer

At the end of pregnancy, 38-42 weeks. Baby can turn at any time. If you go into labour and baby is breech they will do a c-section.
