Breech baby 35 weeks

Help everyone!!! We have discovered that our lil one is still breech at 35 weeks and shows no signs of turning. I have tried, chiropractic, pelvic inversion, heat and cold, swimming and kneeling inversion for the past two weeks without success. Anyone else have any tips? They will try an external version closer to 38 weeks but really would like to help baby turn on his own!  Any ideas....

Just wait it out don't let them pressure you. This is your body and your child. I was pregnant with twins and one was breech. Up until I had my labor contractions. She turned at the hospital. Positive energy for you and your baby. Congrats momma. Think positive. It'll happen.

Thank you all for your input!!! Been trying several methods specially the elevated hips things for two weeks and no luck. Now at 37 weeks I'm faced with scheduling a c section at 39 weeks- frustrating. I'll keep trying until then

My Mom swears by elevating your his while lying on your back every day at least 3 times a day for 10-15 min. I just lay on the floor or on my couch with a couch pillow under my hips. I also would kneel on my futon which was about 2 feet off the ground put a pillow on the floor, and do a "handstand" with my arms straight until they were tired and then on my elbows till I was too tired (about 10-15 min). She di flipped and then before my next appointment flipped back! :( So I did it again and felt her flip ( weirdest feeling ever!) And stayed upside down for a bit longer and then did some squats to make sure she was locked and loaded;) good luck!!
