A baby is breech when its bottom, foot or feet instead of the head are presenting in the lower part of the womb.
Your midwife or Dr should be able to tell if your baby is breech or not, by feeling your bump.
Up until 32 weeks gestation about 15% of babies lie in this way, but by 37 weeks the number is down to 3-4%
Many babies spontaneously turn around before, or even during labour with no assistance although the likelyhood of this reduces the nearer the due date the mother gets.
There are many ways that your Perth Central City Chiropractor can help to postion your baby and even turn breech babies late in the pregnancy. babies position themselves whereit is most comfortable and therefore where there is most space within the womb.
Your chiropractor will ensure that the pelvic ring is aligned to ensure muscle and ligament balance. An imbalance in muscle tone will cause the womb to be mishapen (think of what happens when you pull the guy rope of a tent).
The chiropractic Webster technique has been shown to successfully turn many breeched babies even in very late pregnancy.
Ask your Perth Central City Chiropractor Clinic 94868653 to show you techniques to ensure good baby postioning and therefore decreasing the risk of complications and intervention of child birth.
