Planned C Section - what week for breech baby?

[Amy31]

If LO is still breech in next week or so and I decide to have a c section what week is it usually done? Read 39 is that right?

 

[ashlee23]

yeah electives are now generally done at 39 weeks, unless obv u get signs of labour before then at which point theyll just do it then xxx

Yup, my baby's breech too and my c-section is scheduled for Wednesday when I'll be 39 weeks. Have you been offered an ECV? I had one but it was unsuccessful.

Don't see my midwife until Friday and she will let me know what the next steps are. Not keen on getting ECV, I don't think there is much room in there for him to turn.
