Version Failed...
Well we tried the external version today and unfortunately my little guy is extra comfy in the spot he is in and wouldn't turn!! It was uncomfortable, but bearable and the baby did fine during the whole thing. I'm still having contractions and they are about 5 min apart (have had them since 28 weeks), but I am not dilated (but thin) so we were able to go ahead with the procedure. Now it looks like I will be having a c-section on 9/25!! I'm kinda excited to have a date- only 2 weeks from today

Re: Version Failed...
I don't know if you still want to try, but I literally just read today to try putting ice packs where the baby's head is, and it might turn away. Another option is to rock on a workout ball back and forth and side to side to open up the pelvis just enough.
If that doesn't work, or you don't want to try it...YAY you're gonna have a baby on 9/25!!!!

LOL, I've tried it all!! Let me tell you- ice packs are NOT comfortable on a big belly I've tried hanging upside down (inversion) and some other things on spinning babies, but nada. I'm convinced he is in that position for a reason at this point. I was delivered breech so he is just taking after his mama Thanks for the tips though, I wish they would work!!
