Just got back from my 33 week sono..

Everything looks good except the baby is breech..

The Dr. said that he should turn on his own hopefully and if not we can either schedule for them to turn him (I think its called "aversion") in the hospital around 37 weeks or just schedule a c-section for 39 weeks.

Has this happened to anyone or anyone you know? I was reading about it online and just curious about anyones experiences with this.

Thanks!

when I went for my 34 week my baby was head down, but the dr said that could still change.....you have plenty of time for the baby to turn!

My daughter was VERY breech and a version was not a possibility for me. I had to have a scheduled C. If you have any questions please feel free to FM me.

Andrew was also breech the whole time, and based on his size and the 50-50 success rate of a version, I chose to schedule a c/s. However, he had hsi own plans and came 3 weeks early, but I still had a c/s. He was 9.7 lbs and 22" long!

I don't regret not having a version because even if it is successful, they can turn again. You have to decide what's right for you based on what your doctor says.

Just know there is still plenty of time for the baby to turn!

I had a sono at 32 weeks and my son was head down. I got all excited but my doc said don't get excited just yet b/c he still has plenty of time to move. Thankfully, he stayed head down. So don't get discouraged just yet. Your baby has time and may move into position before the big day

Don't know if you go to a Chiropractor, but there is a technique that some use called the Webster technique. It helps to get the baby around & into the correct position.
You could always try that.
