Breech at 28 + 4
Hi girls,
Had my 28 week check midwife appt today and all seems really good apart from the baby seems to have turned into the breech position. The m/w didn't seem worried at all and said the baby is still quite small and there's lots of time to move. But I am a bit bothered by it at the moment.
Is there anything I can do encourage the baby to turn? Any other advice or reassurance anyone?
Thanks,

I had a scan 2 weeks ago when iwas 28 weeks and my baby was lying breech, however 3 days later at a midwife app she thought it had turned.
I wouldnt worry about it to much there is lots of time to turn.

cant help too much on this one - only that i know that i've read somewhere about stuff that you can do to encourage the baby to turn around. I'm sure if you utilise the power of the internet you might find something. Also, why not post on the baby forum - maybe some of the girls who've already had their babies might have some experience of this.
Hope you're well otherwise - looking forward to christmas?
Hope your lo and my lo trun soon and stay in the correct position. Good luck
I'm hoping the LO turns soon!
Gillians - yes I'm 29 weeks now! Cool huh! I'm much more content now than I was early on. Really looking forward to Christmas as we're off to Paris with my best mate and her hubby. Can't wait! How you keeping anyway?

You'll have a fabulous time in Paris! Me and oh have booked trip to New York as a bit of a treat to ourselves (it'll be a while before we have any more glamourous holidays!!!!).
How's the breech stuff going? I looked up my pg book and it did have some exercises in it (that i've forgotten) but also some doctor has a theory that if you take some time out to relax, close your eyes and visualise the baby turning then that works! Sounds a bit hocus pocus to me, but apparantly if you do that for 10 minutes every day, this doctor has had a high success rate. The wee buggers would probably have turned anyway but it might be worth a shot! I'll look up the exercise again for you later though in case you need it.

suppose we can;'t help it though.
good luck have another antenatal in weeks time will let you know what she says.

Hurrah Gillian!!! I'm so, so glad your scan went well and you're into the 2nd trimster. We both went through such a low earlier in the year didn't we. I'm appreciating the highs now!
Look at us and our glamourous city breaks as well!! Yay!!
