The spinning babies website is an excellent resource, but there is still a chance bub will turn on his/her own so you can go for a vaginal birth. Vaginal breech birth is always an option too if you don't consent to an caesarean but in general doctors prefer breech babies to be delivered by caesarean so they will likely not support you if you chose to go down that route. Also with your baby being slightly smaller it increases the risk of a breech vaginal birth which no doubt your doctor will explain if you ask to go through the risks. However as with any medical treatment the final decision will always rest with you.

I'm so glad you are getting more answers now. Keep asking the questions and if you are unsure, ask again. Part of a doctors job is to gain informed consent before any procedure so they must therefore give you all the information that you ask for.

When boytwin was in NICU there was a gastroschicis bub brought in straight from surgery, and his mum was telling me that he had not yet fed, and the doctors did not want him fed just yet. They were however begging her to express for him because she was planning on formula feeding and they all thought this was a bad idea for his delicate bowel. I don't know if he had any other issues though. I know you mentioned in another thread about your plans to breastfeed, have the doctors spoken to you about how soon bub will likely be able to ingest milk?
