Chiropractic care while pregnant?

Any ladies on here have any experience with getting chiropractic care while pregnant? Currently 33 weeks and baby is breech so I am seeing a doctor that uses the Webster Technique, which is supposed to help with this. Also hoping to get some relief from this lower back pain! But, I've never been to a chiropractor, much less while pregnant, and don't know what to expect!

I'm not sure they will do anything for that because your pregnany. I would ask your Dr. Maybe a chiropractor could at leat show you ways to sit or lay to help yourself. I was seeing a chiropractor for a tilted pelvis and as soon as I got pregnant they cut me loose.

Thanks ladies! Went for the first time today and it was great. My back is already feeling much better! The Webster technique requires specialized training for the doc but has been shown to be very effective with breech babies, so just heads up for anyone that is interested! They have videos of it on youtube, pretty cool. Hoping after a couple adjustments it will work!
