Good luck tomorrow, matey. And be careful tonight- you don't want to have to explain bruises on your head from trying to do handstands in the shower!

Thanks Kate ..... i will be extra careful in the shower tonight

Westy - I didn't find it painful. Uncomfortable but not pain. I felt a bit bruised the next day - mainly because we tried so hard to get him to move but he was well stuck by his head. The feeling from the ventolin is weird - as is the floppy tummy

But overall it is nothing compared to labour

Thinking of you and hoping for a successful outcome for you

Hey Westy,

Good luck today hun, I also meant to ask, I noticed that you're in Brisbane and wondered what hospital you're getting this done at?

Best of luck today Westy - I really hope your cheeky bubba turns around. I have heard that turning the baby can be pretty successful it's not your first bubba. DD was breach and I tried everything but being my first they wouldn't attempt a turn. I also did handstands in the public pool and made DH use moxa sticks everyday on my little toes because I couldn't reach my feet anymore.
Handstands in the shower? - Now that's impressive!!!
I know how you're feeling about the c-section, after conceiving through IVF I really wanted to have DD naturally. I sat there crying in the ob rooms when she said she wanted me to have a c-section. It all worked out for the best as the cord was around her feet and it might have ended very badly had she been delivered naturally.

GUESS WHAT?????

My beautiful baby turned all on his/her own so i didnt have to have the ECV today....i am soooooo excited and so very grateful that my precious little bubba has done this for me and now i can have my natural delivery and avoid a c/s .....WOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOO!!!!!

Would just like to say a very big THANKYOU to everyone for you for the support you have given me , i was extremely stressed about this and i really think having the support here has really helped me so from the bottom of my heart thankyou
