ouch... sorry to hear about this (my wife just reported recently she though the little guy had turned and was 'crooked'. Well, that led to a night of restless sleep as she awful thoughts of breech ... but that said, I'll just report that meds we're going to try to avoid, but we're not granola martyrs....

Hey, I've read your posts before and know you're not 'granola martyrs.' LOL, good term!

I understand your wish for no drugs, there are always risks involved in any decision. We weighed ours and came down with the choice for pain meds. Unfortunately, out choice wasn't honored.

That's the whole deal. It's an individual family decision. Unless asking for opinions, as on this thread, everyone else should just butt out.

Geez, complete strangers felt compelled to put their hands on my "tummy" when I was standing in line at the grocery store!

It's a strange and wondrous time indeed.

Best wishes to you and Mrs. gobucks on the birth of a healthy son!

Probably the baby will move around again. If not, I had my sixth one posterior breech, and it was no big deal. They gave me a local anesthetic (only one I didn't have an epidural for.) Don't panic over a breech presentation; it does NOT require a C-section!
