Just this really.
35w, but consultant feel that I am likely further along, as dated rather late.
We found out on Friday that baby is breech.
Thankfully there is no nuchal cord
Happily, consultant is very supportive of attempting to VBAC, but this is my MLU pool delivery out the window
I can't help feeling that baby has not turned as I have been so inactive for the lat month, with Percy being in hospital.
Consultant is happy to attempt ECV, and has booked this for next week. After 2 sections this is contraindicated, so no data available on success...
I have been told to bring bags in case this induces labour, or scar dehiscence necessitating immediate delivery.
He is happy for me to attempt breech delivery if this fails, albeit with a low tolerance for intervention, but has warned that this too is contraindicated after 2 sections and success rates are likely to be under 50% (but not impossible), and again it is contraindicated after 2 sections.
I'm in a total stress panic as Percy is still in hospital.
I really don't want another section.
Can anyone offer me a positive story, a bit of hope, a suggestion of how to encourage the baby to turn (consultant feels this won't happen as extended breech), even so relaxation and coping techniques...
