[quote=Anonymous]I had the same problem and was asking the same question on another forum and got the same "DON'T DO IT" responses. My baby was also measuring 90th percentile for size so I was *really* running out of time. I did spinning babies for several days to make room. Then we put older sibling to bed, I propped my legs up on DH on the couch (pelvis up-ish) and I put an ice pack on baby's head. I felt her squirm away and didn't think much of it. Later that evening I didn't feel the big head bobbing around in there. SHE FLIPPED.

I did alot of research on this. There are two kinds of breeches, the "oh SH8t"breaches delivered by somebody who doesn't know what they're doing, and the planned ones delivered by someone with experience. So take all the research with a grain of salt. Alot of the breech injuries are due to people pulling on the baby because they don't know what they're doing. If you want a large family a breech vaginal delivery is a viable option once you consider the risks from the c section to future babies.

I ended up with a c section anyway due to failed induction. Go figure. [/quote]
