Do you want to help us help other pregnant ladies feeling that fear and distress while pregnant with a baby who is presenting breech?

When I was pregnant with my breech baby, it sure was nice to hear other positive stories.  I had so many folks pull me aside after church and during lunch and tell me absolute HORROR stories about breech deliveries.  This did not help my state-of-mind about the whole situation!  I really craved to hear stories about when things worked out well.  But, in order to hear those stories, I had to dig high and search low and spend hours in books and online.

The reason I have so many articles regarding breech babies on this site is for the sole purpose of helping other ladies in need, as I was not too long ago.  But, I only have one story!  If we all told our stories, the many voices would be such an encouragement to the 100′s of ladies that find this blog in their time of need.

You can email me at hgm at homegrownmommy dot com (I disguised it for the auto spammers) or place the comment right on this article.  I would love to hear the stories, too!

The absolute best site I have found when dealing specifically with VBAC situations is VBACFacts.  This is a very informative website!!

This is the best position for birth and by far most babies are born this way. Some will move into this position during labor.

There are, of course, variations of this presentation, most of which are talked about in other definitions.  But, if the baby’s head is flexed instead of the chin being to his chest, labor and delivery could be more painful.

If a brow presentation is discovered, the doctor might try to manuver the head with suction or proceed directly to c-section.  If the face is presenting, the doctor will most likely choose a c-section.  These different head flexes are called Flexion Attitudes.
