What a woman!!!

The amount of blood..............is that normal? I never saw how much I blead.

Glad to see a healthy baby even if he was the wrong way around

That's unreal! My Dh was a footling breech and MIL did it all on her back too - always wondered how he came out OK considering.

I was thinking.. oh are they going to catch the baby.. but it was all how it was meant to go I suppose lol

Thanks for sharing

Awesome pictures. Well done to the mama.

Nic, with breach briths it's important not to touch the baby (something Dr's have a prob with ) as it startles the baby etc. This way baby is born and comes out a lot easier.

Ah! Thanks for that Trish Doesn't it hurt the babies neck though?

Wow that was amazing.

Interesting that bubs took a while coming out then mum flexed her pelvis and out she/he came - does that mean breech births are better totally upright or was she on all fours to slow it down (safer??). Interesting about the cord re-filling too.

Good on her!

Tan - 46 days to go is a long time to allow bubs to turn! Don't stress lovey (easy for me to say, I know)!

Ohh thats awesome!!!!!! ace pics!!!

Cat, I *think* they prefer breech bubs to not come too quickly.........

I always wonder about blood too - DS was a very "clean" baby, he didn't have much blood or Vernix on him at all!

Whilst I would never wish myself into the predicament, if breech is ever to happen to me, I'll be getting a credit card and a last minute homebirth . Although I'd be crapping my pants I'm sure it would be an amazing feat to say your body had done it the way it is meant to!

Wow! I found out this bubby is more than likely breech yesterday and that is just what I needed to see hun, thanks for sharing.
