Yes, this is my first baby....they haven't given me a guess as to how big the baby might be nor would he tell me what type of breech the baby was/is...I just know the head is right where my ribs meet in the center of my chest....sometimes I feel like I am not told everything and this is quite frustrating... Rachael 36 weeks P.S. Any of you ladies that have had the ECV that can provide advice or personal experiences?
