As a Hypnobirthing Instructor, I am often asked about breech presentation. Some people get very concerned about this, and that is understandable. I would like to offer some ideas that may help.
First of all, know that a baby can turn into the optimum birthing position at any time. Even just a short time before. If you still have some weeks to go, there is plenty of time for baby to move.
Learning and practicing deep relaxation techniques is very useful as it enables the muscles of the uterus to relax. When the uterus is relaxed and pliable the baby finds it easier to move and turn into the vertex position.
An important part of turning the baby is to visualise baby in the perfect position for birth. Actively practice imagining your baby turning and lying head down with his face towards your spine. Do this at least 3 times a day.
Acupuncture and chiropractic can also be useful.
It's amazing what effect being relaxed, calm and positive can have. Good luck. Please contact me if you would like more information.
