My friend is 42 weeks pregnant almost 43 weeks. she's so huge. baby is not head down. she has a mid…

I had the EVC at 39 weeks and turned my baby, he was 8.8 lbs. it's worse pain than childbirth but worth not having a c section for sure!! She should ask her midwife about it

I'll tell her for sure

@boymama, she had a sonogram Friday said baby was looking to be 9lb 10oz

@boymama, she wants to know what EVC is.

External cephalic version, basically turning the baby from the outside. But the bigger the baby the least likely it will be a success... But the weight is also just an estimate based of measurements so the baby could be smaller maybe

Is it her first baby?

is her 3rd

@boymama,

She should definitely ask her midwife about trying it, the sooner the better. They have exercises to try and turn the baby but when she is this far along I doubt they would work. Worth a shot though right?

they told her to put a ice pack on her belly top try to get him to turn.

I hope that works!
