Hi all. This is my 2nd child (5th pregnancy). My daughter is 7 & was born by c-section at 39 weeks & 1 day as she was breech. This time, so far my baby is transverse. I had a scan 4 weeks ago & was hoping he would have turned by now but I can feel where he is lying & can tell by movements/kicks he is still in that position. I have another scan tomorrow & just wondered what will happen if it's confirmed? Anyone have experience with this? Will they wait a couple weeks and scan me again when I get to 37 weeks? Or will they schedule section at this scan then cancel if he goes head down? Also how likely is it at this stage he will change position on his own? & at what stage do they tend to section transverse lie? My consultant & midwife said it's more dangerous than breech as if I go into labour or my waters rupture then there's a chance the cord could come 1st. Sorry for all the questions & rambling on, starting to get anxious now as was hoping to attempt a vbac but it looks like it's slowly becoming impossible
