My baby is still breech at 36+3 confirmed via ultrasound. I’m currently unable to do spinning babies due to a muscle strain in my stomach for a couple days. My doctor is super confident either baby will flip on their own or during an ECV. However he wants to schedule it for 39 weeks and if it fails straight to a c-section or if it succeeds straight to induction. I failed to progress last time during an induction (different provider and hospital). My current provider has read over my previous notes and was not a fan of how they did my induction. He’s very confident that we can have a successful induction. I do have a doula as well. Anyone have an ECV into an induction for their VBAC?

So this will be my third pregnancy, and I’m extremely excited except for the delivery part. With my second, the delivery was traumatic, she got stuck and it was very scary, and the recovery was awful. Deep tearing all the way to my butt really bad hemorrhoids. Even the nurse made a comment about how bad the swelling was and that it looked like I had testicles 😑. My first baby was exactly 7 pounds, my second baby was 7 pounds and 3 ounces. They weren’t huge, the delivery was not too bad for the first, but pretty rough for the second. This time around, the doctor has suggested that it might be good to think about scheduling a C-section. I’m not completely opposed to the idea, but I hear a lot of people talk about how awful the recovery is for C-section, and I want to hear from moms that had kind of a rough vaginal delivery and then maybe a planned C-section. What did you prefer? And why? What parts where harder or easier. I’m not sure what I want to do but I have lots of time to think about as im only 10 weeks pregnant.
