Hi Shelstar
sorry pressed wrong button on previous post
You are a naughty girl. Stop using google
It is true that their face can be disfigured but it only lasts for a few days. Also baby's who have not been transverse can also have disfigured faces and deformed heads. But again it only lasts for a few days. For you to have a cord prolapse your waters need to break but normally you would have a C/S long before this happened. Basically all the things you have posted here, and many more, can happen with a transverse baby but they can also happen with a baby in the normal position.
There is still time for your baby to turn head down. The following tricks may help
Rest on elbows and knees for 20 mins each day. You can do this on the bed, floor, lounge, anywhere that is comfy.
Shine a bright torch on the lower part of your tummy
Get DP to put his head low down on your tummy and talk to baby
Get a radio and put it low down on your tummy with music playing
You could also try acupuncture/pressure.
Thanks Alan, Yes i know i have been a naughty girl, i promise i will stop googling!!
I will try all those things you have metioned starting in the morning and hopefully bub's will turn! if not i will try not to worry, thanks for the reassurance.
