Dear Victoria,
I can tell you if your baby is head down and teach you how to see for yourself (it's REALLY not complicated, you don't need an ultrasound to see that!).
Get on the net and read up on the "knee-chest" position for "correcting" breach babies. If you do it everyday you'll help the baby pull back out of the pelvis and have the space he needs to turn back around and find a better position.
Please, Victoria, as I told you before, as your friend (and a competent midwife), don't hesitate to call me personally. I can tell you all about Doruk.
Best wishes,
Elizabeth
p.s. baby Gabriel is growing like a weed!

Hello all
As you may remember I am based in Bursa and wanted to have a natural
birth. However my doctor has said I can have a normal birth if
everything is perfect, but only with an epidural (not quite the
birthing pool/breathing exercises I had envisaged!).
At 32 weeks my little lad was head down, but at 34 weeks he was
breech. Tomorrow I will find out if he has turned (36 week
appointment). Does anyone have any smart ideas as to how to
encourage this naughty little baby to turn as my doc will only
consider Caesarean for breech babies and he will not try and turn the
baby either.
To Elizabeth, I hope you and your baby are doing well! I think we
will have the baby in the Doruk hospital - I think that's where you
had your antenatal appointments? Do you have any recommendations for
Paediatritions for after the baby is born, ideally who speak English?
Many thanks
Victoria
