Still in shock

I literally gave birth to my beautiful baby boy a few hours ago, I had a sweep on Thursday (40wks+5) and was told baby was engaged, in correct position etc etc… But from starting contractions at 10:30 last night, I knew something wasn’t right, then little man arriving breech at 00:27… I’m just lost for words and mind blown, yet so damn in love 🥰

You had a vaginal delivery breech? Congratulations 🎉

@Susie yeah vaginal delivery breech 😓

Wow! How was it? I'm mortally scared of having a breech baby because I don't ever want a C section so it's good to know it's possible.

C-section wasn’t option as it all happened too quick from first contraction to birth was about 2 hours, I mean I managed it no drugs or anything and I’m up and about and being discharged this afternoon, it’s hard, but the midwives said they usually opt for c section but it is possible naturally but they’ll usually plan for me drs etc to be there

Well I'm glad you had a safe delivery! I probably would've freaked out if I had known he was breech 😆

Amazing congratulations!! I also had a natural breech birth and a good experience it was also very quick !! It’s just a variation of normal I like to believe !! How are you and bub going ?

Sorry if it’s tmi.. what type of breech position was the baby born in? Also I heard apparently it can really tear you badly, is this true? My baby is currently breach but I’d like a natural birth if baby stays breech but worried

My son came out bum first, and actually I only had one small tear from it, of course everyone is different. I actually had worse tears with my first and he was born in the normal position. I was told by the midwives that they would normally have a team prepped and ready for a breech birth when they’re aware that the baby is in breech position, however, mine was not known to be breech and two days prior was apparently head down
