Did the underwater handstand work or do you just enjoy doing it? I must say you are really good at it.

my wife tried this swimming pool flip method twice during her last trimester and though we can't say that this is the reason that the baby flipped, she did flip both times. this particular time was a couple of days before our beautiful baby was born -- not breech. Pretty cool, and weird. Of course, there was nothing scientific about it. My wife looked up all these unorthodox ways to flip a baby and this was one of them. plus, my wife looks incredibly cute and funny doing these flips .

Glad that worked for you. Hope the birth goes well. Good luck!

A nice hotel, perhaps. Many Holiday Inns have nice indoor pools/rec centers.

Some quality time together would be enjoyable. Once the little one arrives, you will have a lot less!

My son is currently breech, I am about to head to the pool and attempt the very same thing!!! God I hope it works for me!

Hello 25luts, thanks for the vid. This really opened up a new light for me and breech presentations. I'm used to external cephalic version, using your hands to actually turn the baby. Perhaps your method works, and perhaps not, but it is said 25% of pregnancies less than 28 weeks are in breach, and @ 37 weeks, there is 25% chance for the baby to turn on his own to the normal cephalic position. It would be nice to see a study done on this. :) Good luck and congrats on your addition

Thanks.. ;)

Lol this is soo funny! im in the same situation. 36 weeks nd my babys in breech position. how many weeks is your wife here and how many times a weeks would she do this for?

it's supposed to flip the baby into a head down position so the mother can give birth naturally rather then by c-section

my little Savannah flipped like 2 weeks ago. I had just been eating at an Indian restraunt and we were driving home, all of a sudden, her entire body started wiggling and stretching and I'm like "She's fliiping.... I think" went to the doc yesterday and she was head down!! WOO HOO!!

when you give birth, the baby is flipped so its more easy for him to get out of her :)

how many weeks was your wife pregnant when she started this? And how many times did she have to do this before the baby flipped? How many weeks was she at the time of flip? Thanks, am in a similar situation and would like to know how long i should try.
