As the others have said, plenty of time yet - as a baby I was in breech position until the day before I was born, 9 days overdue.
Research Optimal Fetal Positioning which is great for helping baby get into the best position for birth by googling it. If baby remains breech there are some great books:
* The Thinking Woman's Guide to a Better Birth by Henci Goer
* Breech Birth: Woman Wise by Maggie Banks
If baby is frank breech, it's the best position for a vaginal breech birth and there is even a paper on the RANZCOG website about how it can even be a better option. I'll see if I can dig it up.
(can't you tell they were gritting their teeth with that one!)"There may be a subgroup that does extremely well with breech vaginal delivery"
It's a pdf file which you can download here - of course it isn't all going to be as ideal as we would like, but it's a start from them anyway. They will have a review next year which will be interesting to check up on.
