Freaking out!!

Maddie&EthansMom wrote: I am completely spooked! I read some things on line about breech babies and it stated that some breech babies have birth defects, thus the reason for them not turning. Please tell me nothing is wrong with Ethan!! I keep thinking about how nice Dr. Vines was to me today and maybe he isn't telling me something. I know he has time to turn and he really checked me early (35 weeks instead of 36) but I just don't want anything to be wrong with him.

~CrazieMama~ replied: Oh hun, im sure everything is fine. Not all breech babies are deformed...actually I have never heard of that. I would not worry about it...unless the doctor is worried.

Kaitlin'smom replied: oh hun, you cant do that to yourself, I am sure he will be fine. I was breach and born that way VB and I was fine. I know we tend to look things up and we always see the worst. There are so many babies breech and they are fine. If you cant calm your mind then call your doc tomorrow and ask if he saw anything abnormal, that way you can put your mind to ease. Big hugs and try not to worry, I bet he is fine, he just wants to be different.

mummy2girls replied: Oh dear please dont be worried. My friend had a breech baby...and he was born perfect and healthy! call your doc if your really worried.

CantWait replied: I know how scary it can be to read things and see things about pregnancy, but you have to remember that the chances of things being wrong is so slim. You're pregnancy has been perfectly normal.

Things with Ethan will be great Big hugs to you

maestra replied: I'm sure that everything will be fine. to you- I know it is hard.

Kirstenmumof3 replied: Please try not to worry! Everything will be fine! I watch TLC all the time and a lot of the babies delivered by C-section were breech and they were all fine! Maybe Ethan just doesn't like to be upside down! Please don't worry!

A&A'smommy replied: awww sweetie i bet there is absolutly nothing wrong with Ethan!!!! (((HUGE HUGS)))!!!

MomToMany replied: Lots of hugs to you, Aimee!!! There are MANY different reasons babies are breech, like the shape of the uterus, the size of the baby, the level of amniotic fluid, etc. My mom had several breech babies (all VB), and I was one of them. I don'tthink there's anything wrong with me !

Try not to worry; Ethan will be perfectly healthy !!

coasterqueen replied: Aww please don't worry. Ethan is fine. He will turn and will be born healthy and beautiful just like his big sis

5littleladies replied: Awww sweetie don't worry about things like that!! I'm sure Ethan is perfectly fine. When I was preggo with Brianna I would worry about all kinds of different things and then look them up on the internet and find out all kinds of bad stuff and start freaking out. My doctor finally had to forbid me to look things up on the internet and she also said alot of the things you read on the internet can be unreliable. I'm positive if you had anything to worry about your doctor would have said something. Everything is going to be fine!!

Beccas_mom replied: Hun don't get yourself all worked up I am sure Ethan is perfectly fine! don't worry!

jen replied: Aimee, sorry I missed your post! I wouldn't worry, I agree with everyone else! Maddy is still breech and trust me My DOCTOR would tell me if something could even possibly be wrong. I think that little man will turn when he feels the need! I wouldn't want to be upside down either! I can only imagine how worse my wheels will be spinning about the health and well being about Maddy the farther along I GET! Plus if you think about all the breech babies born healthy, How could they possibly come up with a reliable statistic on the ones that come into the world with abnormalities. I wouldn't worry at all. I might look into a more reliable source or ask your doctor point blank if there is anything real to be concerned about. I have read about some positions you can try to encourage them to turn but I don't plan on doing anything until my doctor suggests it. I really think he will turn when he is ready!

MomToJade&Jordan replied: Oh hun you shouldn't worry yourself. There are breech babies being born all the time and they are perfectly fine. My cousin was a breech baby and she has grown up to be a beautiful young woman. There was nothing wrong with her. I used to get like this during the end of my pg with Jade. I freaked out about anything. So much so that I wouldn't even read anything about birth. Everything is going to be fine. Just try to relax and enjoy being pg.
