First, the fastest way to turn breech position into head position_How to judge the breech position into head position? Principle of chest-knee lying position: chest-knee lying position can make the fetal buttocks withdraw from the pelvic cavity, increasing the chance of the fetal head turning into head position. Specific steps: The pregnant mother urinates, loosens her belt, kneels on a hard bed covered with soft materials, puts her head on the bed, turns to one side, stretches her forearms on both sides of the head, keeps the chest as close to the bed as possible, raises the buttocks, and makes the thighs and calves at right angles. Frequency: Twice a day, starting with 3 to 5 minutes each time, then increasing to 10 to 15 minutes each time. Go to the hospital for a check-up after one week. Note: 1. After doing the corrective exercises, you can lie down and rest for 30 minutes. When resting, you can lie on your side with your upper leg forward and your knee slightly bent, so that the baby's back is facing up. 2. Although the chest-knee position is relatively simple, it is still very hard for pregnant women, especially for obese mothers or those with complications and comorbidities. They may experience back pain, dizziness, nausea, etc. If this happens, they should stop immediately.

Second, the doctor performs specific steps for external rotation of the fetus: the doctor touches the fetal head at the bottom of the uterus in the expectant mother's abdomen, rotates the ventral side in the direction of fetal flexion, pushes the fetal head down, and pushes the buttocks up at the same time, and corrects it gradually and little by little with manual methods. After correction, immediately wrap the abdomen with a belly band to prevent the fetus from turning into a breech position again. Note: 1. There are certain conditions and requirements for external fetal version. Before doing so, the expectant mother should undergo an ultrasound to understand whether the fetal development is normal. If the fetus is found to be abnormally developed, with the umbilical cord around the neck, placenta previa, or too little amniotic fluid, external version should not be performed. 2. Pay attention to counting fetal movements after the operation. If there are any abnormalities, seek medical attention immediately.
