This week my baby turned from transverse to breech. I am only 33 weeks pregnant, so the baby has plenty of time to turn. The one thing that really stood out to me, though, was the lack of concern by most of the people I talked to about it. Multiple people told me "You'll be fine. Baby will turn. Don't worry." But how hard is that? As a pregnant woman I worry about my baby and my birth. Luckily, I have a really good support team who I went to. They helped me voice my concerns and lead me to some resources about turning malpositioned babies. Not all women are as lucky as I am to have such a good support system. There is plenty of poor information available about pregnancy and birth-related subjects. How do we as birth activists spread the word about accurate and non-threatening information?

Hello Mommy2be,

Have you heard of the Webster technique? I know a chiropractor who successfully turns babies by giving this series of adjustments to moms with breech babies in late pregnancy.

If you "google" it, I believe that you can find practitioners in your area.
