[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]God people are awe full; your not going to kill your baby having a breach vaganally. It’s a skill and if you find a provider trained it’s fine. Here is updated evidence, it’s just not a skill taught in the US much anymore.

I am the 21:43 PP and I agree, the tone of some of these posts is hysterical. A patient who is properly screened,  monitored, and then delivered by an experienced provider is very low risk overall, even if the risk may be slightly higher than a "regular" vaginal delivery. If I'd already had a successful vaginal delivery under my belt at the time of my breech pregnancy, I probably would have gone that route.

[b]That being said, very few providers have the necessary skills and experience today[/b]. Also, OP is already 32 weeks along, so I think it would be very hard to get one of these very few providers to take her on for a breech delivery now. I am not in the DMV area, but my doctor doesn't like to take on new patients past 30 weeks.[/quote]

I agree wholly with the bolder, and it’s sad.  Also don’t *quite* understand the hysterical posters who are also saying a good OB minimizes interventions but also taking about counseling bereaved mothers...so are they saying the OBs and hospitals that do breech are “bad”[/quote]
