Breech

So our little girl is breech!! I am 32 weeks along and she doesn't have much time to move into position. So, our options are to try to turn the baby around in a couple of weeks or to schedule a c-section. The doctor was giving me the pro's and con's of both. Any suggestions???

My sister-in-law's baby flip flopped between being breech and not breech on a weekly basis near the end and she ended up not needing a C-Section so there is still plenty of time for her to move...I'd say avoid a C-Section if possible..and like Shari said...it's definitely worth a try!

I had a c-section with Makella because she was in distress so I would say If you have a choice try and get her to flip.. Of course the end product out weighs whatever happens but I would so much rather had her normal, because now I have the issue of trying to see if this next baby can come normal, but chances are I will end up with a c-section again.... Good luck. Keep us updated

Well, I don't know the risks of flipping the baby but I'm scared to death of a c-section so I would probably opt to flip her. But I would think she still has plenty of time to flip like Christina said. My doctor said they don't worry about that until 35 or 36 weeks usually. Good luck!

Try flipping her but be prepared lots of times it will induce labor so wait until the last chance but just be prepared for a c-section if needed. Just try and stay calm and know that everything will be o.k. either way.

Think Madagascar. You want to move her, move her, you've got to move her, move her. haha I'm so clever :). Seriously though, I'd avoid a c-section if you can.

I'm with Hailey. Do some jumping jacks or something. Shake it up and let gravity do its thing. I am so excited for you to have a girl!
