breech baby 37weeks


My son was head down but not anymore. He is breech. I'm going into the hospital today to see if they can turn him around. Have any one had this done before? Does it hurt? If they can't turn him I will be scheduled for a c-section at 39 weeks

I had a friend tell me it is very painful and can cause labor. When she had it done it was successful and she delivered naturally a few weeks later. I know some women they get the baby to turn and the baby goes back.

I have heard it is painful and can be bad for the baby. Good luck!
