34 Weeks And Breech
Posted: 05-03-06 10:00am

I am 34 weeks along and I just went to the dr yesterday and found out the baby is in the breech position. I had a complication free vaginal birth 7 years ago. The dr said she wants to do another ultrasound in 3 weeks and if the baby has not turned they will do a c-section or try to turn her depending on how my amniotic fluid level is at that time. I have heard horror stories about c-sections. Does anyone have any words of wisdom, encouragement or advise. Is there a way for me to gfet her to turn on her own? I really do not want to have a c-section. I posted this in the 3rd trimester forum and no one answered me. I guess I should have posted here.
Thanks in advance

Haha thats funny I heard horror stories about vaginal deliveries. As a matter of fact, thats all I hear about them. Anyway, u have 6 weeks left, that is still plenty of time for the baby to turn.

Yes, it still has time to turn, try to be positive! This does happen! Try not to stress(i know that it is easier, said than done).
The best to you and yours!
