I am 19 week pregnant, in ultrasound Breech Presentation is mentioned is it normal? I m bit worried pls help?

---

I have found in net that in week 32 the baby comes to the normal position that is head down and prior to this he is in the position where buttock is down.
I am 19 week pregnant and got the ultrasound done. In the result Breech Presentation was mentioned. Doctor although said everything is fine. But as its my first Child and out of excitement I seached what is breech presentation. Whatever was mentioned abt Breech Presentation was awesome I am little scared. I want to know whether it is normal that baby is head up position in early weeks in second trimister.

Please Help
The best time to try to turn a breech baby is between 32-37 weeks of pregnancy There are many different types of methods to use and all have different levels of success. Talk with your health care provider on which options they feel would be best for you to try.

At this point your baby is doing somersaults and moving around so I would not be too concerned at this point.

Try this website they have alot of information regarding this.
Good Luck! ~Bon  (+ info)

breech presentation at 37+5weeks?

---

im due to go into hospital on the 12th for a c/s as my baby is breech. i have been reading up on breech presentation and found that it has got links to maternal and/or fetal abnormalities. i wasnt told that they could see anything wrong during any of my scans - should this be something that i should still be concerned about?
I have never heard of that. I had to have a c section in 2006 as my little girl was breech also. All was fine.

You be fine. Good Luck  (+ info)

Anterior placenta and breech presentation?

---

Hi friends,
I am 19 weeks pregnant and yesterday in the scan i came to know that placental position is anterior and the baby is in breech presentation. This is my first baby. I have few questions -
Will the anterior placenta and breech pose a problem for natural vaginal birth?
Will the baby turn to vertex position automatically in the coming weeks?
Is it safe to air travel in this situation?
Will anterior placenta pose a problem with c-section?
Is it possible to change the breech presentation to vertex presentation by doing some regular exercises?
I am so worried. Please help
I think your worrying over nothing the baby can change position anytime up to around 36 weeks why the told you it was breech at 19 weeks is abit strange the baby will do full turns untill it runs out of space which will be at 30 something weeks!
Anterior placenta just means the placentas as the front mines the same just makes you feel less baby movements, it won't mean you have to have a section either!
Yes you can still fly, why wouldn't you be able to?
And nope exercising will not change position the baby will decide it's position!
Why do u think this is abnormal? There's nothing abnormal in what u said it's fine stop worrying !  (+ info)

Casestudy- Foetus of 20 weeks postmentst, in breech presentation,has reduced spontaneous movement of legs,why?

Casestudy- Foetus of 20 weeks postmentst, in breech presentation,has reduced spontaneous movement of legs,why?
A 39 years old pregnant woman, in her 20th post menstrual pregnancy, is there for a 2nd routine check-up.
Due to her irregular menstrual cycles, she has not realised the fact that she was pregnant during the first 8 weeks and has smoked an average of 20 cigarettes per day.
Other than that the pregnancy is quite low key.
the Patient is quite pale,
under ultra scan the foetus is of normal size, anterior placenta and amniotic fluid volume are also normal, the foetus is in breech presentation(position)
the spontaneous movements of the legs are relatively low.
the heart is rhythmic and other internal organs seem normal.

What could be the reason of the reduced spontaneous leg movement? is it of nervous or muscular origin???

case study.... please help........................
has anyone got a clue`? some one suggested me to check the alpha-fetoprotein markers!

i went to the dr and the said fund-us height is 23cm and presentation is breech. i am 22 weeks preg?

Everything sounds perfect. Your little guy or girl shouldn't be worrying about them being in the anterior position just yet, I'm 35 weeks along and my little guy didn't go head down until I was about 32 weeks. Its even likely that when they go head down they can come back up to breech position. And your fundul height should be equal in centimeters to what week you are working on 22-23 sounds just about right. Looks good!

Congrats and good luck!  (+ info)

Is vaginal birth possible for baby in a breech presentation with umbilical cord wrap around his neck?

---

My wife is in her 36-week pregnancy. We were told by our doctor that our child is in a breech presentation (feet pointing to the birth canal). What makes matter complicated is that the umbilical cord is wrapping around his neck. We were told that vaginal birth is dangerous & a cesarean should be performed. Is this true?
Yes it is true as many others have already told you.

I would assume you are asking this question because the both of you may still prefer to deliver the baby naturally?

Well, while it is true tat natural birth mothers will recover faster and lose weight faster... C section is not that scary at all.

I had wanted a natural birth but my son's head was too big and I had to do a emergency C section.

It is not that bad, I fainted, woke up and my baby was up. As I did not go through the birth, i did feel somewhat shortchanged initially.. as if I did not have a complete initiation to motherhood..

It took a longer to bond to my baby but if you are breastfeeding, there is lots of time to bond and there are lots of other ways to bond.

Also, while it can take longer to heal.. would think tat little extra pain is little to pay for to ensure the safety of your little one.

Oh yes, forgot to include tat C section babies usually have nice, round heads.. hehehe..

Anyway, to inspire you a little, here are some pics of my cute baby son: http://verityy.blogspot.com

Good luck! :)  (+ info)

Breech presentation?? Women in late pregnancy please??

---

So I went to the doc today for an u/s and glucose test and checkup. The doc said the only thing he is worried about is the fact that the baby is in the "sideways" breech position. I am 29 weeks with 11 left to go. Has anybody else been told that at this stage of pregnancy for it to correct itself later on in pregnancy? I am really scared of having a c-section. I really do NOT want to be cut open like that.
I was told at that some week that my baby was breach too. I was also nervous! But the doctor didn't seem worried at all. C-section is a very scary thing to me as well. I am now 40 weeks along, and at my 39th week appt. the doctor did an ultrasound to make sure the baby turned and that we wouldn't need to schedule a c-section. and YEAAH, the baby is now in the right position, so no scheduling needed. If your baby is still in the wrong position nearing the end of your pregnancy the doctors have some techniques to try and move the baby into position. They can do it manuelly by pushing on your stomach and trying to rotate the baby, I hear it is painful but it may get you out of a c-section!! If you are still nervous about it I would google some of the manuel techniques, it may help to comfort you, or even talk to your doctor about any options you could try before resorting to a c-section.
Good luck!!  (+ info)

Single, Live Intrauterine Pregnancy, in breech presentation of about 24 weeks gestration by BPD,FL, AC?

---

ALD @ 64.4MM
BPD stands for Biparietal Diameter and is an ultrasound measurement taken of the baby's head (from side to side). Along with the Femur Length (FL) and Abdominal Circumference (AC), it is used to estimate the fetal weight.

ALD (Adaptive Low-frequency Doppler-filtering)

The baby is butt- down (breech presentation) and ideally will be head down before delivery. There is only one living baby in your uterus. (single, live, intrauterine pregnancy) and you are measuring about 24 weeks gestation.  (+ info)

Is a breech presentation at 38 weeks a cause for concern?

---

My wife never had amniocentisis, but also never heard anything about abnormalities during 2 ultrasounds (followup was to check placenta position). Our first child presented head down but facing back, so I am hoping that this one is breech because nobody can figure out how to get situated in there. But does the fact that we haven't heard anything about abnormalities to this point mean that the chances of abnormalities aren't quite as high as the 6% of breech births I am reading about?
I didn't mean to say that I hoped the baby was breech, just that I hope the baby's breech situation is due to the odd shape of her pelvis which caused our first to be head down facing backwards. Sorry for the confusion.
The baby IS breech and my concern is that since breech births turn out to be genetically abnormal 6% of the time, should I have high cause for concern, or would I likely have already known about any abnormalities....
I am confused about much of your question, but I think the last part, you have been confused about the link between breech births and abnormalities. Babies with abnormalities are more likely to be breech, but that does NOT mean that breech babies are more likely to have abnormalities. Two different things. If you have had an amniocentesis, that ruled out everything major that could be wrong genetically. It can't test for absolutely everything, but if it was normal, you can be pretty well assured that your baby is just fine. If it is breech, it is breech because that's the way it wanted to be!

It still may turn head down before labor, but if not, a c-section isn't the end of the world, it's all about delivering the baby safely. Good luck.  (+ info)
