My Baby is Breech | Frank Breech Position: C-Section or ECV | Pregnancy Vlog

My baby is breech, meaning, he is not head down, which is the safest way to deliver a baby vaginally. Instead, on recent ultrasound, we discovered that my baby is the frank breech position. His butt is down toward my cervix, and his head is under my ribs.

Having a breech baby generally means that there is a higher risk for delivery complications. Some OB providers will not even attempt to deliver a breech baby vaginally.

My OB provider has suggested two options:

1. ECV (external cephalic version), which is a process whereby the OB provider attempts to manually move the baby.

2. C-Section, also called Cesarean section, which is the process of delivering the baby via surgical incision.

In this video, I talk about what I plan to do, my experience, and more.

I remember advice I was given: wash the floors by hand (on all 4’s!) to help get baby in position. I don’t know, but can’t hurt to try! Wishing you healthy safe delivery. Thank you for sharing your journey. Your nursing videos helped me pass the LPN NCLEX- thank you! God bless!!

Best of luck Sarah, my first child was normal delivery and my second was breached and I had an emergency csection, btw today I found out i passed my NCLEX, and I thank you for that!!!

We found out at 36 weeks that our daughter was breech. I was devastated because I was mentally prepared to have a vaginal delivery. I went into labor a few days before our scheduled c-section, so I got to experience several hours of labor before we had to have a c-section (because she was still in breech position). Like you, all I wanted was for her to get here safely. The spinal wasn’t nearly as bad as I thought it was going to be, and aside from our baby’s health, was my next biggest fear. You’re going to be great! Sending you lots of love ❤️

Always a nurse, the way you present your lectures is really good, they are the knowledge that nurses need, why not make a book about it. I am also a nurse, male nurse and diabetes educator but still learning from your lectures. Thanks and wishing you well.
