Hey Lilli -

My bub is breech too, I was given three options: 1. Try to have her manually turned
2. C-Sec
3. Have her breech

They took away the option of having her breech, too dangerous.

My OB told me the success rate of bubby turning was 40% and then there was a 17% chance that she would turn back around, he called in another OB to examine my belly and they decided together because my stomach muscles are so tight (due to age) that my personal success rate was only 20% (still with a 17%chance she wouldn't stay put), I didn't see the point in distressing bubby by trying to turn her when my chances were so low so i'm booking in for a C-Sec today. I also didn't want to have something go wrong and HAVE to have an emergency C-Sec then and there... I want to be awake even if i can't deliver her naturally!

I personally feel it's the best thing for my baby - having said that it's been such a hard decision, with many nights of tears in our house, I spent so long preparing myself for a 'normal' birth i had a major hissy fit and felt it just wasn't fair! You still have time to think about what you want and what's best for you and bubby.

I hope everything goes well and you make the decision that makes YOU feel the most confident, Goodluck
