Flipping baby?

Question

I'm currently 33 weeks, my appt was cancelled on Friday and I can't be seen again until 35 weeks. Shes currently breech and I am so uncomfortable. Like the worst pain I've experienced being pregnant. If I call l&d would they be able to get the on call ob to flip her? I can't keep chasing 3 kids with a head in my ribs and the most excruciating burning sensations.

Answer

They won’t try until 37 weeks. Have you tried going to spinning babies website and tried their tips? Have you tried a chiropractor to help flip?

Answer

Try spinning babies. A dr won’t electively flip your baby right now because it could prompt an emergency c section. Also, the procedure for it is excruciating and not always successful. I’ve had 2 breech babies

Answer

I had the ECV done at 36 weeks. It didnt work for me and I had a c-section but I think it has around a 50% success rate if I remember correctly.

Answer

I agree with the above comment. I doubt your doctor would flip now. Its still considered normal for them to be breech and flip on their own by 36-37w. BUT ive heard great things about spinning babies. Youtube it. They have exercise and positions to flip baby at home.

Answer

Some doctors can and will flip baby. It’s called an ECV. But it’s an actual medical procedure and from my understanding will only be done after 37 weeks due to risk for emergency c section. (It can put stress on you and the baby). I don’t think your doc will just flip the baby just because, unfortunately.
