Breech baby

[Sign Of The Fish Burger]

Hey all

I figured you ladies were the best to ask about. My SIL is due any day now and the baby is breech. Anyone one know of any home remedies to flip this little bundle?

I have heard of diving into a swimming pool, or lying head down on a slope (eg ironing board, slide).

But I thought you needed to try it a little earlier, so the baby still has room to move?

One thing I've heart about is shining a flashlight into the woman's vagina (yes, really!) so the baby will "go to the light".

I've also heard about the dad making a little megaphone out of paper and placing it on the woman's lower abdomen and talking to the baby. The baby will turn to hear the dad better.
