    she still has a big change of turning
    the only technique i have heard is a warm bath with a bag of frozen peas on the top of the stomach so that it encourages bubs to head for warmer waters!
    if it is any help, when i had my twins, twin 1 was head down at 29 weeks and then turned breech at 30 weeks and he was head down ready to go before that! cheeky monkey. So if he can turn with another bub in there- then bubs still has a chance.
    hang in there

    Jodie, My aunty was born bum 1st, and she is now almost 50 and still superbly flexible. She is a twin. If no doctor is willing to support you to have her breech, then you do what you have to do. If you dont want to have a caeser, then dont. Little Girl will be just fine. Spend tonnes of time on all fours though, rocking, this may help, or they can try ECV to turn her, but if she insists on coming breech, then you go girl.

    It seems so unheard of these days doesn't it. I was born breech along with my younger sister....and i'm not that old LOL! I know mum did say though after she had me she was very weak....i think it is just harder to labour and birth with a breech baby.

    GL with what ever you decide.

    Cheeky girl! Hun have you thought about having acupuncture/moxibustion?? Moxi has an 80% success rate of turning babies so it really is well worth going to have a few sessions! Also all the stuff on spinning babies will help like the warm bath/icepack up top, lying upside down etc ! Good luck lovely!!
