Need advice on how to turn proserior bubs

[Kass79]

I was told getting down on all fours and rocking backwards and forwards helps....

I did it with my last son and it worked

Yep down on all fours is good, or on knees with arms/upper chest draped over a fit ball too. My doula has recommended after the hands and knees time to sit on the fit ball and rock for about 10 - 15 mins too to keep bub in the right position. Our bub has been transverse for ages, and after a week or so of doing the above 2 or 3 times a day for 15/20 mins, we are now head down anterior. I know it can change, and then change again, but I'm confident if I keep it up we will be in a fantastic birthing position!

Good luck

Yep hands and knees position at least 4 times a day.

Also if you need extra help accupuncture is great, worked for me.

It is so hard to know what works because a lot of these posterior babies just turn around themselves! I had some accupuncture at 40+1 and she turned that night - no idea if that worked or she was just ready to turn anyway but it might be worth a try.

ETA - I had the stop start contractions also, my girl was just keeping me on my toes!

Been on spinning babies website and been doing some exercises last few days. No joy yet but keep going!

I think it depends on bubs....I visited their site and did every trick in the book with DS#1....he stayed posterior and I only got as far as 4cm and then DS#2 was doing fine, dialted to 5cm in good time and then whammo, everything stopped, he pulled back up and I had instant back pain.

Hope your little one behaves and does what you ask!!!!

Spinning Babies is a great website.

Are there any Birth Workers in your area who have experience with the Rebozo?
