Frank breech baby

[Tiggersmom2]

Well, my little Stevie was frank breech at my 20 week but my doctor told me not to worry....she would move head down. I went for my 35 week check up and sonogram and guess what....she is still frank breech!

I am scared to death of a c-section. If anyone has any ideas how I could get this little stinker to turn...it would be much appreciated.

Did your doctor talk about anything they can do to make her turn? At my 33 week appointment my baby was lying sideways and my doctor said that if she hadn't turned in a couple weeks they could do an external version (pushing on the baby from the outside to make it turn) or send me to a doctor that does acupuncture to make her turn. Another way I have heard of doing it is to get on your elbows and knees so that your hips are higher than your head, and stay it that position for 15 minutes a few times a day.

My baby went head down on her own so I didn't have to try anything like that... there's still a possibility yours will turn on her own too but I think usually by this time they're getting big and running out of room and need a little encouragement.

Every appointment towards the end of my pregnancy my son had his head down then when I went into labor he was frank breech. If you do have to have a c-section don't worry about it too much. I was scared to death too but it was actually really easy Good luck

This was my got to place for infor when Johnny was breech. He did turn head down and I have no idea if it was because of something I did or because he just turned but they have tons of info

Hey guys!!! I had my sweet little girl on Jan. 30!! She turned to the vertex position on the 29th...I felt it when she did it. It was a beautiful birth and very fast...I went to the hospital and was admitted at 9:00 a.m., my little Stevie was born at 1:09 p.m.
