I am 34/35 weeks..my baby is head up...doc said that it has 2 weeks to turn and if it doesn`t we`re booking a c/sec...I really would like to have natural, what are the odds that it won`t turn?? and what works to help it turn?

courtenay - 960 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) go to www.spinningbabies.com theres lots of techniques on there, none of them worked for me but i was offered an ECV if i wanted one, do your research on those before deciding if you want one or not they carry risks as well, like everything else pros and cons. i really wanted all natural but i was one of the unfortunate people whos baby was literally to big to fit in my pelvis and she did end up being born c-section

HaleyD - 960 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Babies can turn up until it is time to push. My doc told me one of his patients was in labor...she went walking the hospital halls to move it along...came back to the room an hour later and was checked and the baby turned. Wait it out. Most likely the baby will turn.

sarahann - 960 days ago Rating: 0 (0 votes) Chances are your baby will turn, but to help it try things like getting down on your hands and knees and rocking, and when you sit down, try sitting with your legs apart and lean forward slightly. These things all help to open up the pelvis and use gravity to help turn bub around and get him/her to drop down a little. It's all about using gravity to help your baby into the right position. Your doctor should be able to suggest other positions etc to try. Best of luck!
