I am 39 weeks pregnant with my second child and haven't had my MS meds in 18 months due to doctor complications. In the last 2months I have been having what feels like seizures when baby flips from head down to breech. As of yesterday she is breech and completely facing the wrong way. Do I do the intensive flip procedure? Or just wait for the 16th to see if we get induced if she flips on her own or if she is still breech do the c section? I have already been through 3 hours of seizures this morning just from baby moving and my doctors are not concerned. Literally stuck in bed unable to stand. My 6 year old is a huge help with taking care of our dogs while I am down. My husband works 12 hours a day 7 days a week. He won't be able to be with me on the 16th and doesn't come to any of my appointments.

To each their own, but for my daughter, she was breech and we tried doing the intensive flip procedure and it didn’t help. Came to find out it was because she had the cord wrapped around her body (not in a life-threatening way thankfully) and she wasn’t able to turn around, so the procedure didn’t even really matter. Now, my situation was different to what you’re asking but consult your doctor. There are other complications that can come with that procedure too and it doesn’t always work, so you might be putting yourself through more intense pain and processes for it to maybe not help. It more depends on how set you are on a vaginal birth as compared to a c-section.

we did the flip. She didn't stay put to be induced so had to do a c section.
