I'm still in breech position.. according to Dr Paul, the placenta is blocking me from turning.. I'm now in a breech with extended legs (a.k.a frank breech)..
He can do an ECV for mummy at week 37 but he is not going to force it.. It is because of the placenta and I'm mummy's first pregnancy.. the successful rate of ECV might be higher if it is mummy's 3rd pregancy..
Daddy and mummy were given homework to consider about the ECV and vaginal breech delivery over the next 1 week.. He does not want to affect our decision as he will do either the vaginal breech delivery or c-section..
Dr Paul is going on vacation from 20-29March and my EDD is 25Mar so we need to figure out a date for c-section.. It is advisable to do it within the 10days of EDD which is from 15-25Mar.. with Dr Paul's away from 20Mar.. we are left with 15-20Mar.. and grandma has given us the following choice.. 13/3 (Friday 13th?), 15/3 (Sun - probably extra charge?), 19/3 (Dr Paul will perform the operation but will not be able to visit us), 21/3 and 25/3 (too close to EDD and Dr won't be around).. Mummy love to have it on 21Mar as both daddy and mummy are borned on 21st.. The only worry is.. too near to delivery and might get into labour..
