Need advice on how to turn proserior bubs

[Mum2Willie]

Until 36 weeks, bubs was in perfect position. Then she turned prosterior. At 37 weeks, I was relieved as she had turned and engaged beautifully. Then I had contractions and cramping for 4 days and she backed out so to speak. So now she has disengaged and turned prosterior again!!! Please help with how to make bub turn as I am 38 weeks tomorrow.

Good on you my love for researching & informing yourself. Spinning Babies as the others have said is really the best place to go for help.

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

I did it with my last son and it worked

[human bean]

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.

[Sagres]

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!
