Hi IM's,
I'm currently 34 weeks pregnant and have discovered that baby is breech. I know there is still time for baby to turn before delivery but does anyone have any tips or tricks that might help turn the baby? If baby doesn't turn by 36 weeks then the Ob is going to attempt an ECV - has anyone had one of these? Did it hurt and more importantly did it work?

Spinningbabies website is great with lots of ideas.
I actually has my ecv 5 years ago today! Lol. It was actually a horrible experience for me. They give you a shot of ventolin to soften your cervix but for me, it mostly caused a panic attack so be weary of that. It was uncomfortable, somewhat painful and a waste of time for me. It didn't work and I signed the consent forms for a c-section straight after. Good luck x
