Breech baby - any experiences?

Question

At my 36week appt I found out our LO (second baby for me) is complete breech😭. Im really hoping for a vaginal birth. OB said I’m a candidate for version (ECV) so I have that scheduled Wednesday (at 37+1). Anyone have experience with a breech baby after 36weeks? Experiences with the ECV procedure (success or failure)? Other methods to get baby to flip? I already see a pre-natal chiropractor and I’m having acupuncture tomorrow. I started doing the spinning babies exercises as well. Just trying to avoid a c-section if I can 🤞

Answer

My baby is frank breech. I have an appointment Wednesday at 38+2 to try to turn it. If that isn’t successful I’m having an elected C-section.
My dr said since this is my 3rd (1st two were vaginal deliveries) that I’m a good candidate to deliver the baby vaginally but I’m not comfortable with the risks.
I’ve been swimming daily and started seeing a chiropractor, hopefully baby turns on their own by Wednesday!

Answer

Literally going through the same thing! Also found out she was breech at my 36 week appointment and have an ECV schedule Wednesday also at 37w1d! Praying they flip for us 😊

Answer

My second baby is transverse… will meet with the dr at my US on Monday. I’m nervous. My first was a vaginal delivery so the thought of a csection really scares me. The thought of a ECV that makes my baby go into distress also scares me…..

Answer

Baby has until labor to move head down. Swimming can help baby move, hands and knees and upside down aversions might help baby change position.

Answer

I'm in the same boat with my 3rd. She is so different than my other 2. My others measured weeks ahead, head down early, simple straightforward vaginal unmedicated deliveries. This one is transverse at 36.5 weeks and measuring around 2 weeks behind. Hoping she flips because I really would be in a bind figuring out c section stuff with a 3.5 yr old, 2 yr old and a hubby in med school 😭no family near as we moved overseas for school

Answer

My third baby was 100 % breeched at 38 weeks! 
I did everything I could to flip her I was successful. I did yoga walked a ton slept with a ton of pillows in between my legs. Saw a chiropractor. She flipped 3 separate times. Once I got her head down I belly bound. At my 39 week apt They confirmed she was still head down. I was induced 3 days later it was the longest three days of my life. 
I also couldn’t do the procedure to flip her because I have a heart shaped uterus and it isn’t safe.
