I’m currently 36 weeks pregnant and baby is breech🥲. I have a week to basically decide if I want an ECV, section or to go down the breech delivery route.
I feel so stressed as none are options that I’d actually want. Is anyone is the same position?

I'm 33 weeks my baby is breech they're going to check 1 more time at 36 weeks if he's still breech I'm doing a C-section I know too many people who've had complications trying to turn the baby and a breech delivery isn't safe is what I was told

My son was breech the whole way through and I had to have a section and was absolutely fine no complications whatsoever! This time baby is head down so going for a VBAC but would happily have another section too if I had to!

I know they say there is no room for baby to turn now but i was absolutely heartbroken that my son was breech as i really wanted a natural birth, i tried everything (the techniques on spinning babies etc) and he randomly flipped on his own at 37w+3 (i had a big meal so he was moving loads and then laid on my side, literally felt him flip!) the day before my ECV was booked so there is still a chance🤞🏼 i was also looking into moxibustion which people swear by

I'm 36+3 and in the same position, just had a meeting with breech team to discuss options this morning. Feel free to message me if you want to chat about it
It's a lot of info and it's very overwhelming but I'm here for you💗
I went to my midwife appointment this morning for a sweep.
Baby has been ready this whole pregnancy. I am 39+3.
I had a scan 8 days ago, she was growing lovely and engaged.
They couldn't do the sweep because baby has decided to completely turn and go breech right at the last minute 😞
Now I have to sit and wait all weekend until I hear from the hospital with a plan.
Stats show the most likely option is now a c section due to the timing.
I am absolutely gutted this has happened 😞

I’ve just been on monitor at assessment unit and they’ve asked if I’m having any tightenings and I said I could feel them but nothing major. Midwife said they are measuring higher than braxton hicks, has anyone else had this and it progressed?
Thanks!

Never had a an experience of 4D. Had a scan at 17 weeks today they gave us a sneak peek. A friend I showed it to has said it looks like the baby has a cleft lip. Is it a shadow? I’m now worried. Would this be something that shows on a 20 week scan? First baby. Unsure what to do or think. 🥺😢

I would love to do my outings with my baby, however every time I take him out I end up having to take him out the pram and walk with him in my arms lol. It therefore puts me off wanting to go out as much because he cries in the pushchair.
Maybe I should take him out more to get used to it? Any other advice on how I can get him to just chill in the pushchair lol.

I’m 3 weeks PP and feel good to go, like I’ve got an itch that needs scratching and I know my partner does too 😅
In the UK we’re advised to wait 6 weeks and he’s super considerate and wants to wait the full 6 weeks to ensure that I’m okay, has anyone else gone for it sooner than 6 weeks after a c section?

Did not expect the news today that I’m Infact having a little girl. Everyone says the cord is rare but it clearly isn’t. I’m total shock!
Need to exchange clothes. 🙈 hopefully it’s the same gender at our 20 weeks scan. Haha.
