Baby breech AGAIN at 36w5d, why does he keep on turning?
My son did this. He kept turning too and my doctor kept giving me ultrasounds because she likes to know exactly where the baby is. He was sideways and then went head down and then he went back up and put his fist down first (the doctor thought it was his lips when she checked me with her hand and had to do an ultrasound to find out it was his hand). On the advice of my doctor, I did squats, walked like crazy (3 hours straight at Disneyland), and got on all fours to give him room to move and once he was head down, my doctor offered to induce me so I could have a l birth instead of a c-section. I was induced and had a wonderful easy time (once I got the epidural) and it only took 3 big pushes and 7 minutes for him to come out. My son is now 9 months and still active and always moving around, crawling, getting into stuff, so let your baby's turning in your tummy be a warning for how he's going to be when he's older. Good luck! Keep walking. My son was breech at 34 weeks and kept turning up until I was induced at 39 weeks (actually only 2 days before my due date), so you still have time to get him to move.
