Just like in the world; they spin
fetal postioning during gestation helps checkout spinning babies here
Aquanatal is good or just swimming
But then like other said they can spin during birth
"Down, turn & out!!!"
All the best

My first 2 were posterior - turned whilst in labour  . With Rico being first baby it was a long labour with an epidural & after an hour of pushing couldn't get him out so needed forceps. With Gia it was half an hour of pushing & she came out fine (also with an epidural). Jett was in perfect position & came flying out in 3 pushes!
There is a chance your bub will move into correct position during labour (contractions help this), but if it doesn't then you may be calling out for an epidural, & they are FANTASTIC!! I've had one with each birth.

Well knowing other people have survived it is a nice comfort. Definatley going to add epidural just incase.
Off to the pools this weekend as well as cleaning the skirting boards and lying on the bean bag hehe.
Thanks for that site Glow it's got some really interesting stuff on it.
I wonder if bribing works with babies?!?!

sleeping on your left side with your top leg on the bed (so nearly on your tum but not) helps keep baby in the right position for birth (loa) my second baby was posteria and had heaps of back pain was a lot more painful than my first. but my midwife gave me some petheiden and got me to lie on my on my left side with top leg on the bed and it did the trick baby turned and nearly came flying out 4 min later. this one i have managed to keep in the right position (by sleeping mostely on my left but some times you need to turn)but just needs to come out now i hate waiting 3 day late and counting.

Maya was posterior, long latent first stage of labour, had an epi after 30-something hours and she turned anterior before delivery. But the first 30-odd hours weren't full-on, unbearable labour pains, just regular contractions, and she was 38 weeks which was the upside to her being posterior, all the wriggling and squirming to turn anterior got labour started early, just as well seeing as she was over 9lb.
