At 38 weeks in this pregnancy we found out that our baby is frank breech. Which means her bum is down and her legs are up and feet kind of by her face. In an attempt to help her turn over so her head is down and she is in the “correct” position for birth we tried the following:
Breach tilt: hands and knees on a decline with head below hips
Laying on my back on a declined ironing board
Laying on my left side
Lots and lots and lots of pelvic rocks
Visits to the chiropractor who used the Webster technique and even attempted to turn the baby
Left to try?
A manual version, done by our doctor, where he turns the baby with the use of a muscle relaxer
Right now she’s in a good position for a vaginal breech birth and if I stay healthy and labor begins on its own I can do that. Wish us luck! We'll see what happens.
