Are you able to have a version of the breech? Discuss this with your doctor.

At our hospital, we do breech sections at 39 weeks to reduce respiratory distress.

As long as you are being tested weekly, the placenta should be functioning fine. If a change occurs, the baby can be delivered.

Hope this helps and write back anytime for more information.
