Signs of labor with breech baby

Causes, Complications, Turning & Delivery

Overview

What is a breech baby?

A breech baby, or breech birth, is when your baby’s feet or buttocks are positioned to come out of your vagina first. Your baby’s head is up closest to your chest and its bottom is closest to your vagina. Most babies will naturally move so their head is positioned to come out of the vagina first during birth. Breech is common in early pregnancy and most babies will move to a head-first position by 36 weeks of pregnancy. This head-first position is called vertex presentation and is the safest position for birth.

How common is a breech baby?

There is a small chance that your baby will not move into a head-first position before 37 weeks of pregnancy. Breech babies account for about 3% to 4% of all full-term pregnancies.

What are the types of breech position a baby can be in?

There are several fetal positions your baby may present in. Ideally, your baby is positioned head-down, facing your back, with their chin tucked to their chest.

Breech babies can be in a few different positions:

• Frank breech: The baby’s buttocks are aimed at the vaginal canal with its legs sticking straight up in front of their body and the feet near their head.
• Complete breech: The baby’s buttocks are pointing downward and both the hips and the knees are flexed (folded under themselves).
• Footling breech: One or both of the baby’s feet point downward and will deliver before the rest of their body.
• Transverse lie: This is a form of breech presentation where your baby is positioned horizontally across your uterus instead of vertically. This would make their shoulder enter the vagina first.

How does a breech baby affect pregnancy?

Your pregnancy is usually not affected. Most breech babies are born healthy, although there is a slightly elevated risk for certain birth defects. Your baby’s movements may feel a little different. You will feel your baby’s kicks lower in your belly. You may feel a hard lump closer to your ribs. This is your baby’s head.

If you planned a vaginal delivery, a breech baby could change these plans. When your baby is breech, a vaginal delivery can be complicated and dangerous. Your healthcare provider may feel comfortable attempting a vaginal breech delivery, but in most cases, they will recommend a Cesarean birth (C-section).

How does a breech baby affect delivery?

If your baby presents in a breech position after 36 weeks of pregnancy, your birthing plan will likely change. It's usually unsafe for a breech baby to be born vaginally due to risks of injury. In most cases, a planned C-section is the safest way to deliver your baby. Some healthcare providers may be comfortable with a vaginal breech birth. In some cases, turning your baby to a head-down position while they are still inside your uterus is an option. Your baby is then born head first.

Symptoms and Causes

How can you tell if your baby is breech?

You may be able to tell if your baby is breech, especially if you have had past pregnancies where your baby was head-first. The places where you feel lumps and kicks might indicate that your baby is breech. Let your healthcare provider know where you feel movement. They will feel your belly or do an ultrasound to confirm that your baby is breech.

What causes a baby to be breech?

It’s not always known why a baby is breech. Some factors that may contribute to this position are:

• You are expecting multiples (twins or more). This makes it harder for each baby to get into the right position.
• There is too much or too little amniotic fluid.
• The uterus is not normal in shape or has abnormal growths such as fibroids. Most of the time, the uterus is shaped like an upside-down pear. If it's shaped differently, there might not be enough room for a full-grown baby to move into position.
• The placenta covers all or part of the cervix (a condition called placenta previa).
• The baby is preterm. This means they are less than 37 weeks gestation and may not have turned to a head-first position.
• Your baby has a birth defect that causes them to not turn head-down.

Diagnosis and Tests

How is a breech baby diagnosed?

Your healthcare provider may be able to tell which way your baby is facing by placing their hands at certain places on your abdomen. By feeling where the baby’s head, back and buttocks are, it’s usually possible to find out what part of the baby is positioned to come out of the vagina first. An ultrasound may be used to confirm the baby’s position.

When is a breech baby diagnosed?

Almost all babies are breech at some point. As your pregnancy progresses, your baby will naturally move to a head-down position — probably between 32 and 36 weeks. Your healthcare provider will feel your belly and determine where your baby is positioned. This will happen during most of your appointments in the third trimester. After 37 weeks, a breech baby usually does not turn on their own. Your healthcare provider will discuss delivery options with you.

Management and Treatment

What are the options for treating a breech baby?

If your baby is breech at 37 weeks of pregnancy, your healthcare provider may:

• Try turning your baby in your uterus into the head-first position.
• Plan a C-section birth.
• Plan a vaginal breech birth.

What are some complications of having a breech baby?

The complications of having a breech baby usually do not occur until it's time to deliver. Some breech babies can be safely delivered through the vagina.

The risks of attempting a vaginal breech birth are:

• Injuries to your baby’s legs or arms such as dislocated or broken bones.
• Umbilical cord problems. The umbilical cord can be flattened or twisted during delivery. This can cause nerve or brain damage due to a lack of oxygen.

Will my doctor try to flip my baby if it's breech?

If your baby is breech, your healthcare provider may consider turning your baby so that you can have a vaginal delivery. In some cases, trying to turn your baby may not be safe or the risks outweigh the benefits.

Flipping your baby may not be safe if you have any of the following:

• Bleeding from your vagina.
• Placenta previa. This is when your placenta covers all or part of your cervix.
• A nonreactive nonstress test.
• An abnormally small baby.
• Low level of amniotic fluid.
• Low or high fetal heart rate.
• Premature rupture of the membranes.
• Twins or multiples.

The most common method used to turn a breech baby is called external cephalic version (ECV). It's performed by your healthcare provider around 37 weeks of pregnancy. This procedure is performed in the hospital just in case an emergency occurs. It involves placing hands on your abdomen and applying firm pressure to turn your baby to a head-down position while your baby is still in your uterus. It is about 65% effective and carries some risks.

What are the risks of turning my breech baby?

The risks of ECV include the following:

• Premature labor.
• Premature rupture of the amniotic sac.
• Blood loss for either you or your baby.
• Emergency C-section.
• Your baby might turn back to the breech position.

Although the risk of having these complications is small, some healthcare providers prefer not to try to flip a breech baby.

Will my breech baby flip on their own?

Most babies will flip to a head-down position before they reach full term (37 weeks). If your baby is still in a breech position at this time, your healthcare provider will determine if you can deliver vaginally or if you will need a C-section.

How can I flip my baby if it's breech?

Some women will try at-home methods to flip their baby to a head-first position. They may help, but there is no scientific evidence that they work.

• Bridge position: Lie on the floor with your legs bent and your feet flat on the ground. Raise your hips and pelvis into a bridge position. Hold this position for 10 or 15 minutes several times a day.
• Child’s pose: Rest in the child’s pose for 10 to 15 minutes. It can help relax your pelvic muscles and uterus. You can also rock back and forth on your hands and knees or make circles with your pelvis to promote activity.
• Music: Place headphones or a speaker at the bottom of your uterus to encourage your baby to turn.
• Temperature: Try placing something cold at the top of your stomach where your baby’s head is. Then, place something warm at the bottom of your stomach.

A chiropractic technique, called the Webster technique, can also help your uterus relax. Some providers even recommend acupuncture. Both of these techniques need to be done by a professional that your healthcare provider has recommended.

Prevention

How can I reduce my risk of having a breech baby?

There is nothing you can do to prevent your baby from being in a breech position. If your baby is in a breech position, it’s not because you did anything wrong.

Outlook / Prognosis

Can you deliver vaginally with a baby breech?

It's possible to deliver a breech baby vaginally. It can be more dangerous for the baby and the risk of injury is much higher. If the umbilical cord is compressed during birth, the baby could be deprived of oxygen and this could harm their brain and nerves. The cord could also slip around the baby’s neck or arms, causing injury. Healthcare providers have various levels of comfort with vaginal deliveries of breech babies. Talk to your provider about the risks and benefits of different types of birth for a breech baby.

Living With

When should I see my healthcare provider?

Contact your healthcare provider if you experience any of the following symptoms during pregnancy:

• Severe cramping or contractions.
• Vaginal bleeding.

What questions should I ask my doctor?

Learning your baby is breech may give you concerns about your delivery. It’s completely natural to have questions. Some questions to ask your doctor can include:

• How can I tell if my baby is breech?
• Is my baby OK?
• What are the benefits and risks of turning my baby?
• What are my options for delivery if my baby remains in the breech position?
• What are the health risks to my baby and me if they are born breech?

Frequently Asked Questions

Do birth defects cause breech position?

Birth defects are slightly more common in breech babies. It might be the reason that the baby didn’t move to the head-down position. Most babies who are breech at delivery are born without any health complications.

Will I need a C-section if my baby is breech?

Most of the time, a C-section is the safest way to deliver a breech baby. Your risks of developing complications are much higher if you try to deliver a breech baby through the vagina. However, some healthcare providers may feel comfortable performing a vaginal breech birth.

How does labor start if your baby is breech?

Having a breech baby doesn’t change some of the first signs of labor like contractions or rupturing of your membranes. In most cases, your healthcare provider will recommend a planned C-section. If your delivery is planned, you may not have any labor symptoms.

If you are in labor and go to the hospital for delivery, your provider will confirm your baby’s position a final time. Your provider could attempt a vaginal delivery, but it's more likely they will proceed with a C-section to be safe.

A note from Cleveland Clinic

Having a breech baby can be unexpected and change the vision you had for childbirth. Talk to your healthcare provider about what to expect during a breech delivery. They can help you understand the risks and benefits of a breech birth so that you and your baby are kept safe.

Birth in breech presentation - maternity hospital "Leleka"

It is normal to place the fetus in the uterus in such a way that the head is above the womb, the so-called cephalic presentation. In such a presentation, it is much easier for a child to be born, and the process of childbirth takes place more physiologically. However, in 3-4% of women, the fetus lies with the limbs down - the so-called breech presentation. Births with a breech presentation of the fetus can proceed completely physiologically, however, such births are high-risk births! This must be remembered. nine0003

Probable causes of abnormal position of the fetus are:

- increased fetal mobility in the uterus with polyhydramnios, premature pregnancy, overstretched uterus with multiple pregnancies or in women who gave birth a lot;

- limited fetal mobility in case of low water, anomalies in the development of the uterus or fetus;

- placenta previa, narrow pelvis.

There are several variants of breech presentation:

- only the buttocks are located above the entrance to the pelvis - purely breech presentation; nine0003

- buttocks and feet - mixed gluteal;

- legs - foot presentation.

In variant I and II, childbirth through the birth canal is possible, and in variant III, only caesarean section.

It is possible to diagnose breech presentation with an external obstetric examination (the head is round and dense, the pelvic end of a soft consistency, irregular shape), with a vaginal examination, the head is dense, rounded, sutures and fontanelles are palpated on it, the pelvic end is soft, the gluteal fold is palpated, sometimes on examination, stacks of the fetus are palpated). nine0003

The most informative diagnostic method is ultrasound, which makes it possible to clearly diagnose the presenting part, their location relative to the entrance to the small pelvis and even more features that are relevant in childbirth).

The decision on the method of delivery is made by doctors in the obstetric hospital. Particular attention is paid to the following points:

1. The age of the patient.

2. History of physiological childbirth. nine0003

3. The expected fetal weight by ultrasound should not exceed 3700 g.

4. The course of this pregnancy and the presence of extragenital pathology.

5. The degree of maturity of the cervix for childbirth and the independent onset of labor.

Births in breech presentation have certain characteristics, therefore, they are carried out under careful monitoring of the condition of the mother and fetus.

And the period of childbirth does not differ from childbirth in head presentation. The patient has the ability to actively move, take light food. These births can be carried out under epidural anesthesia. nine0003

The period of attempts, in contrast to childbirth in head presentation, is carried out by a qualified obstetrician-gynecologist, and not by a midwife. During attempts, the woman in labor is provided with special assistance, the main purpose of which is to maintain the correct position of the fetus. An episiotomy is often performed during a breech birth to reduce perineal soft tissue resistance and reduce the risk of injury to the fetus. At the Leleka maternity hospital, breech births are performed and qualified medical personnel are available to provide all necessary assistance to the mother and newborn child. nine0003

Breech presentation of the fetus: signs, diagnosis

Consultation with a specialist:

Breech presentation of the fetus is one of the options for the location of the child in the womb. In this case, the fetus, as it were, "sits" in the uterus, and its head is directed upwards. Normally, breech presentation is observed up to 32 weeks, after this period such an arrangement of the fetus is considered pathological. nine0003

Only a gynecologist can determine the breech presentation during an examination or according to the results of an ultrasound scan. If the baby is positioned incorrectly, the doctor may prescribe special exercises or manipulations to correctly position the fetus.

To determine whether the baby has taken the correct position for childbirth, it is necessary to undergo an examination by a gynecologist and ultrasound at 32-34 weeks.

Types of breech presentation of the fetus

Breech presentation of the fetus is divided into types: nine0003

• gluteal;
• foot.

In breech presentation of the fetus during childbirth, the baby's buttocks are the first to appear. At the same time, its legs are located along the body and straightened at the knees. In such a situation, we can say that the woman is lucky, since in this case she practically does not need additional help, and the risk of complications is reduced to a minimum. With a mixed breech presentation, the legs and pelvis may appear at the same time. nine0003

Foot presentation is considered more unfavorable. According to statistics, up to 15% of children with breech presentation are born this way. In the foot position, the first of the birth canals are the legs, not the pelvis. Usually in the case of a foot presentation, a caesarean section is performed.

Causes of breech presentation

The reasons that caused the pelvic presentation of the fetus can be quite a lot, but the most common are: nine0003

• polyhydramnios - usually in this case, the baby is highly mobile and simply does not have time to take the desired position by the time of birth;
• oligohydramnios - in this case, the child's ability to change his position is limited, as a result of which the baby simply cannot take a physiological position;
• twin pregnancy - in this case, it is very difficult for babies to move due to lack of space, it is worth noting that the "traditional" head presentation of the fetus in multiple pregnancy is rare regardless of the week of pregnancy; nine0066
• cord entanglement - sometimes a very active baby can wrap the umbilical cord around himself so much that it becomes completely impossible for him to take the correct position for childbirth;
• pathology of the uterus - some diseases of the uterus (for example, fibroids) can directly affect the position of the fetus.

In some cases, in the presence of the problems described above, the breech presentation of the fetus can threaten the following dangers: nine0003

• preterm birth;
• hypoxia - if the child in the gluteal position pinched the umbilical cord;
• difficult delivery with the risk of injury to both mother and child..

Breech diagnosis

It is almost impossible to independently suspect a breech presentation of the fetus without understanding obstetrics and gynecology. In addition, such a situation before a certain period should not bother the expectant mother at all. Usually, the first symptoms of breech presentation in the uterus are determined by the obstetrician at the examination at 32-34 weeks. In this case, the doctor pays attention to the area where the child's heartbeat is heard and palpates the abdomen. In the event that the symptoms indicate a breech presentation of the fetus, the specialist will prescribe an additional examination that will either confirm or refute his conclusion. nine0003

There are several ways that experienced obstetricians resort to in order to determine the presence of a breech presentation in a fetus.

• First, it is a visual inspection and palpation of the abdomen. Usually, it is not difficult for a specialist to determine the position where the child's head is and where his feet are. In addition, the obstetrician may resort to listening to the heart. If his sounds are heard above the navel, then the child is in a breech presentation. This is the simplest and most affordable method of research and diagnosis. nine0066
• Secondly, the obstetrician can determine the presentation of the fetus and the location of the head at the time of the onset of labor. Usually, this method is resorted to if a woman goes into labor urgently and she has no data on previous examinations, and on the position of the fetus - pelvic or head. In this case, the specialist probes the position of the child through the vagina.
• Thirdly, the surest and most reliable way is to conduct ultrasound. It is best to perform an ultrasound scan in breech presentation at 32-34 weeks, when the baby takes its final position. nine0066

Treatment

In fact, in the absence of pathology, breech presentation of the fetus is not some kind of terrible diagnosis that needs to be feared. In addition, in some cases, correcting such a situation can be quite simple.

Remember that any exercises and manipulations aimed at giving the child the desired position must be fully coordinated with the specialist. Otherwise, you risk causing irreparable harm to the unborn baby. nine0048
