    Yep - go the moxa sticks. DS was trying so hard to turn using the moxa (and when I was doing handstands in the pool!!) but his head was stuck between my ribs and the anterior placenta. He was never going to get out at that late stage and we even tried turning him. We had a natural labour commencement to 6-7cm and were heading for a vaginal breech until he became distressed. Then it was a c-section.

    As for who you can get to support - John Hunter has a few. Mine is in Sydney and is saying he will support a breech VBAC if we get to that position too
