Hi ladies,
I had a scan at 30w which showed baby was breech, even though that very morning she had been head down while I was on a trace (although I'm doubting this as I realise they could have been wrong about that, midwife seemed sure based on feeling the head down low and also where the heartbeat was found, but still). Since then it's seemed to me that she's been breech/transverse the whole time - I'm based this on the fact that all the movement I feel is belly button + lower, plus hiccups I'm feeling just above my belly button rather than down low.
I'm just started to get a bit concerned about this because I really, really don't want a c section - I've been bouncing on the ball for a week now plus trying inversions and completely avoiding any leaning back/knees higher than hips positions.
I was wondering if any of you had breech babies at 31 weeks who then flipped by themselves?
I happen to have a growth scan next week at 32+1 where obviously I'll get a definitive answer as to baby's position (I'm seeing the midwife tomorrow but I don't 100% trust what they say based on feeling my bump), and I really want to start sorting it if baby is still breech because I find the NHS stance that "it doesn't matter until 36 weeks" quite frustrating, as by then pretty much all you can do is have an ECV and they're only like 50% effective.
Anyone got any advice for me or experiences? TIA
