There is things that say that cold can help turn a baby, would be worried about an extreme hot bath triggering labour or raising your core temp to much.
Check out spinning babies website.
Definately try spinning babies - I was in the bath getting ready to push and Quoll was posterier - I went into one of the positions and he turned nicely to the right way round!
I've heard that too and I don't think the cold would penetrate that far into the placenta hun - just don't have the bath too hot! Have heard of lots of success through moxibustion and acupuncture - might be worth a try and you can do the moxi yourself once the TCM has shown you how. Good luck! xoxo
I just gave it a go in a moderately warm bath and I'm pretty sure my bub slept through the entire bath, lol! There was definitely no large I'm-flipping-up-the-other-way-to-escape-the-cold movements. Oh well, there's still plenty of time yet
My midwife used rebozo to successfully move my baby a few times- he was very mobile- and in the end he was in a great position to be born. (google rebozo or i can give more info if you lke). I think you said that you have abdominal muscle seperation too (?), this can give baby more room to move about and choose position. i used tummmy support bands and wraps (like sarongs) to try to hold baby in 'good' position once we had moved him. He had so much room to move though, and turned breech again at 39.5 weeks, and then back to cephalic again.
If you have Braxton Hicks, there is research to show that sitting correctly (optimal fetal positioning- no slouching etc) is most beneficial during BH or prelabour contractions.
