Stubborn posteriour bub!

[*Efjay*]

I have one! I am doing all the things to turn him listed on spinning babies, I have been here before & managed to get Isla to turn. But this guy is stubborn!!

Any other suggestions to get him the right way. He has a big head Im told & while I have done a big headed posterior baby (Glenn) I would prefer he come out the right way this time.

Going to things like acupuncture etc aren't really an option for me.

Hey hun, other than the positioning stuff, have you thought about moxibustion? They normally do it in combination with acupuncture but a girl in my childbirth class got her practitioner to show her how to do it - its a spot near your little toe, and she has been doing it at home and getting some great results....
Not sure what else hun- good luck with it.

Dd5 was posterior and just refused to move. I had back labour for the first two hours of labour, and she turned around and then it was quick and easy. She was nearly 10lb.

Acupuncture asap throughout until the birth... swimming belly down.

Acupuncture really isn't an option for me.
There is nothing close & I have 2 kids at least with me all the time. Even a house visit would probably cost a forturn given the travel involved.

Tan, never heard of the moxi thing, will look into that.

Swimming would be nice but again not really an option, given the little kids in toe....

eta, sounds like I will just have to live on all 4's!

.... loads more.

Google acupuncture and Blue Mountains. The Blue Mountains is loaded with birthy people living in the area, I doubt you wont have someone closeby. And depends how much you want to move this little man!

Loads of clients here bring their kids with them. We have toys and a DVD player.

Im not that side of the Mt, thats the thing, yes I am blue mts but everyone things the blue moutains is Katoomba & surrounds.
Thats at least an hour from me.

My closest anything is Bilpin & that has a school of 100 kids, a post office and a little general store. Thats it.

I will google though, mayby I will get lucky.

Mmmm try calling and talk to them about the moxibustion stuff too hun. I know that most acupuncturists do it, and you can do it yourself but have to be shown the point to do it on. Hope you find somewhere that can help lovely.

I just did a google & a yellow pages & the closest is still an hour away. places that would be doable for me (factoring in traffic, time at the appoinment, cost of fuel if its a regular thing & being back in time to pick up Evan from school) would be Richmond, Nth Richmond, Kurmond, Kurrajong... um thats about it really unless there was a local who works from home around Bilpin/Mt tomah. But I doubt it.

Mum use to work for an acupuncturist. Might ask her about it. After all her advise helped with the pelvic instability issues I was/am having.
