ecv procedure

[torresue]

Im having an ecv procedure this friday to attempt turning my breech baby around. Has anyone ever been through this before? I have know idea what to expect

Yea my dr. Told me the same. 50/50 chance. I have a pretty high pain tolerance so im not too worried about that. I just want my little guys heart rate to stay up. Thanks for all the good advice and the heads up

I don't want to be negative or up set you but I had it done and the give you pain meds and muscle relaxers but it hurts and very uncomfortable they will push very hard on your belly and if the baby dosent want to turn it won't I think that why it hurt so bad for me it felt like her head was stuck on my ribs and then I told him to stop so it didn't work for me. He only gave me a 50/50 chance he could turn her an because this was my first baby there wasn't much stretch to my belly. I wish you the best

Try getting on your hands and knees and shake your hips, play music or put a radio near the bottom of your pelvis, or walk up steps. I did all those the past weekend and I think of them worked. Good luck!

Im 36 weeks and still trying to do exercises before friday but he seems very comfortable where he is. Ive watched a few youtube videos already and it doesnt look too bad. I really trust my dr so hopefully its quick, painless and successful.

I was scheduled to do that Monday but luckily my baby had turned. But what they do is they check by ultrasound to see what position baby is in and they put that gel on your stomach and attempt to turn baby to the head down position. They monitor the baby's heartbeat to make sure there's no distress. But if they can't baby to turn then they schedule a c section. YouTube the procedure.
