Just had my 39 week midwife appt. and she is still back to back

Has anyone given birth to a B2B'er? Did it really hurt?

Had planned a nice quick easy water birth in my local hospital but am now having to think about going to the big main hospital miles and miles away for a loooong labour

An still only 3/5ths engaged.


I don't think she will ever come out

callum was back to back and although it was painful compared to my 1st time, it was really quick. dont worry, she could still turn.

and she might not full engage until you are in labour!!

ah thanks hun.. i was worrying myself i think. I googled it (i know i know ) and scared me half to death.

Did you need an epidural hun?

lorrilou

unfortunately i did, but i think that was more because callum pooed in the womb and was in abit of distress and i just couldnt get him out by myself.

im sure you'll be fine. Not long left now. x

Rach you stilll have time for lil one to turn. You could try laying on your left side as much as possible, and also try rocking back and forth while on your hands and knees.

Your LO could still turn yet hun so dont panic too much. Have you been doing the exercise things they recommend to get them to turn? I think it was Amy-Lea on here who gave birth to her little girl back to back and she had a really quick, easy labour so theres still hope!
