Transverse Baby

Hi Lovelies! Had scan yesterday and little monkey has turn himself transverse, they wanted to admit me there and then but because I live close to hospital and hubby works from home they have let me stay at home but want to admit me next week at 38 weeks to then be on standby for a C Section. Anyone else in this situation…?

There was quite a few of us in this situation about a week ago! They kept me from 37 weeks for a c section at 39 weeks, baby didn’t turn but I saw a couple did and they were induced I think! X

My baby also turned at the last min, (at 37 weeks) after being transverse the whole pregnancy! 😅

I'm currently in this situation. Had midwife appt at 38+1 and baby is transverse, I've been admitted until he either goes head down for 2 days consecutively or have a C section at 39 weeks. It's so hard being away from my toddler but I was strongly advised that I had to be admitted x

@Phoebe wow so you stayed in hospital just sitting around for 2 weeks!? They have said he’s big so they don’t think he’ll turn on his own so it’s defo the c section route but I just don’t fancy taking up a bed for that long!

@Joanne it’s crazy isn’t it? I didn’t think there would be enough beds to just give them to people to wait around in. Hope you’re ok, how has it been in there?

@Kati to be honest, when I've looked at the risks off not being admitted, I can understand why I need to be here. It's been OK, I'm not in any pain so just walking around and have visitors etc. Hardest bit is being away from my daughter

@Joanne this is very true, defo better to be in there and safe, just didn’t know it was even a thing! Best of luck with everything 😘

@Kati thanks, you too 😊
