I think they suggest the epidural *in case* they have to get the baby out quick - but even having the epidural in puts your spine out of whack and isn't helpful. If it were me, I would seek out a private midwife to help me through or find a person who is confident in breech birth. Have seen breech vaginal birth without anything - drugs, induction etc and it all went perfectly fine. I have a short list on the main site of carers I know who support breech birth but not sure of all of their 'rules'
