[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Heading in for a chiropractic appointment today to try out the Webster technique...I hope that it works because doctor is already scheduling the c-section (and said it has to be early in Week 39, she said it can't be pushed to the end of Week 39) and I'm at 36 right now. :/ [/quote]

Why is she pushing you so early?[/quote]

PP here (sorry OP, don't mean to hijack your post)- The doctor said they needed to schedule a c-section as early as possible to avoid me going into labor (said going into labor makes things risky). I haven't found any specific information saying that breech presentation babies need c-sections as early as possible or what specific risk factors exist if you happen to go into labor before the scheduled c-section (I've heard about hip dysplasia concerns), so if folks have any info, please share! When I talked with the scheduler about how late we could schedule it, they called me back to share that the doctor said absolutely not, we cannot push it to the end of Week 39- I am hoping it isn't because the end of Week 39 coincides with the week of Christmas and that it is truly about the wellness of the baby.

Until then, working on trying to get this baby to flip! I was hoping for a vaginal birth with little/no interventions, but in the end, as long as the baby is happy and healthy, I'll be happy!
