Has anyone had a baby flip from breech position at 34 weeks pregnant?

Question

Hi guys!! Third baby here and currently 34weeks and first time I have had a little one not turn head down by this point. I am smaller then I was with all previous pregnancies. I have only gained 25lbs or so and I am 5'0" even and 127lbs so I am petite and I am afraid that she doesn't have enough room to turn. Although my midwives are not concerned. Has anyone experienced something similar and had baby move in correct position in time. I really don't want a c-section.

Answer

I'm 36 w 1 day today and my baby was breech all last week. She switched back to the appropriate head down position at 35 w 3 days. I also had been trying a number of things to encourage her to flip for a few days prior that I do think helped. Check out spinning babies. I did a couple of the positions suggested there, ice pack at the top of my belly over baby's head, brought my yoga ball to work and sat on that and did hip circles, bounced, etc all day long. Sounds silly but it worked! I did NOT want a c section. I'm also only 5'1". Good luck 😊

Answer

I'm 4 foot 10" and baby didn't turn until two days ago (35 weeks 1 day!) although I did use some techniques that I believe helped in his process of going head down (bouncing on a ball, going up and down stairs on all fours & having a hot bath)! Don't worry babas still got time, good luck mama 😇
