@torikvi, I haven't scheduled one yet. I'm going to wait it out. But usually around 33-35 weeks babies won't turn, that's what my ob said but who knows lol she's a stubborn baby

@jessjohn21, do you have any other reason ,my doctor said that 39 weeks it's earliest you should do it, because baby still can turn. Try to stay on your knee and elbows 10 min in the morning and evening, maybe it will help you.

@torikvi, they don't think that she's going to move. She's been in this same position since like forever. If I did have one it would be scheduled around 38 weeks. I see my doctor on Tuesday so we shall see what she says

@jessjohn21, he was in right position before 36 weeks and then flipped , doctor suggested to stay on your knee and elbows, but it didn't work so now I have no other choice;) they won't schedule you c-section until you 39 weeks ,so you still have time))

My baby is breeched too! She's frank breeched which means she is butt down. Did they give you any options before you scheduled your C section or did you just schedule it?

No, you can do everything as normal except for lifting. Nothing heavier than the baby. But I would still take the stairs slow for the first few days. It's definitely not most people's first choice but it's not all that bad. I don't have a vaginal delivery to compare it to... But the recovery isn't horrible. Everyone told me that it's the easiest pain to forget and that is so true. The pain is nothing once you hold your sweet baby😁

You'll do great, I'm sure! I wasn't expecting to have a c-section but I almost wish I would've just scheduled it😂 I pushed for like 4 hours before we just decided to go with a c section... That was worse than the actual recovery

That was really long but I feel like a lot of people make c-sections seem scary and I just had a really good experience. I would also make sure you have something sturdy next to your bed for the first week or two to help pull yourself out of bed because those muscles need time to heal. I was grateful I had a sturdy wood bassinet for my LO. But an end table or something would work too

Yes! What they said. Don't overdo it though. I went home earlier than most c section mommas... I had her Tuesday morning and was home by 5pm on Thursday.... I was up and moving around the whole day at the hospital on Thursday and then got home and almost passed out. I think I took like a 4 hour nap when I got home. It is okay to take it easy the first week home as long as you're up and moving around when you can. Also, don't be brave with your meds. Take them every time you're supposed to... That helped me a lot. About a week after I had her I thought "I'm not in much pain, I can go without my meds" and then was in a lot of pain like 30 minutes later. I kept a chart in a notebook so I could keep track of when I took them so I never forgot. The main things the nurse told me in the hospital though is to take it easy and keep up on my meds and the recovery wouldn't be bad... And I did exactly that and my recovery went really smoothly. I'm 6 weeks post partum now and I feel awesome!
