12 days late, baby Morgan arrived September 15, 2012 at 4:27 am via c-section.
She had suddenly turned breech Tuesday 9/11. Tried everything to tun her and nothing worked. I made a new homebirth plan with my midwife plus an OB in attendance. We dilated quickly but then she didn't descend for me to push. Mt cervix went from 10 to 6; I got back to an 8 over time. By then my cervix was swollen and baby was still high. I was exhausted so we transported. As there are no options for vaginal breech in the hospital, we had a cesarean birth. I was pretty upset and scared but we made it!
