We finally decided to do an External Cephalic Version (ECV) where the OB manually flips the baby before delivery. It was the most painful experience of my life but it worked and I was able to deliver naturally. Hooray!

I was doing these same things back in June with our little breechling. My OB even told me to lay upside down on a slanted ironing board propped against the couch. Like I could have gotten my big preggo butt back up! lol. Day of delivery, he tried turning her but come to find out her cord was snaked around her, making her breech. The c-section wasn't that bad. Recovery was a little hard but the actual section was a breeze! So if you end up needing one, don't panic, they go quickly. Best of luck to ya. And yes... you'll know when she turns! :0) Following from MBC. Merry Christmas! .-= Crystal Martin´s last blog ..<a href="http://www.reviews.thecinnamonhollow.biz/2009/12/19/pom-wonderful-pomegranate-juice-review/" rel="nofollow">POM Wonderful Pomegranate Juice Review</a> =-.

She is still frank breech and I can feel her head right at my belly button. Current plan is to keep trying for her to turn on her own and then at 39 weeks to try an External Cephalic Version. I will have to get an epidural to have the best chance of success with an ECV, which is disappointing, but I figure since I will have to have a c-section if she does not turn that I would have the epi for that anyway! My fluid levels are so low now that post ECV if she turns they will induce and if she does not they will do a c-section. If she flips naturally and my levels do not go any lower they will let me go into labor naturally. Like you needed that book! Thanks so much for the advice and the follow. I am off to your blog!
