I feel ya momma. I’m not looking at a c section (although it could always be a possibility) but if I don’t go into labor naturally I do not want to be medically induced and give up my water birth plans. I’ve got time but up until now I was like oh ya it’s going to happen and now I’m like oh crap I probably ought to start to think about and accept whatever happens happens. ❤️In the end it means baby is here and in my arms and that’s my ultimate end goal 🥰
ECV failed
Well, went in to try for an ECV for my breech bubba today. Baby wasn't having a bar of it! So now I'm staring down the barrel of a c-section I desperately wish I could avoid.
My first was such an incredibly positive birth experience and I was so looking forward to the same again. Now I need to let go of those expectations. Accept that if they turn on their own then awesome but most likely it'll be surgery and all that entails.
My brain knows I should just be grateful that bub is totally fine and that I live in an age when the solution is relatively low risk for both me and bub. But my heart is sad and I'm having trouble processing the change in plan. How do you choose babies birthday?? I love not knowing exactly then it will be. Sigh.
Sorry for the stream of conciousness. End rant.

Try the ice pack on top of ur stomach & heating pad on the bottom. It’s worth the last chances of flipping before delivery. My baby was breech, head down, breech again & head down now from 35-38 weeks. It’s worth trying I feel as though that’s what did it for me I was in pain that night I was praying it her was turning & the next morning she was head down at my appointment. Hoping & praying she stays head down again until delivery but I still have a c section scheduled next week Incase since shes known for her gymnastics. I know how u feel it’s a rollercoaster of emotions & stress. Hang in there 💕
CSection is really not that bad! I had a csection with my first because she was breech as well! My staff was AMAZING and I had a very positive experience! My doctor scheduled it for me so I didnt choose the birthday! I would see what your doctor can do! I know my hospital is getting FLOODED with csection and inductions and it is very hard to schedule anything!! Otherwise, just find a date and pick it. Haha.
