Yes, that's it. I've also known a number of freebirthing mamas whose babies were transverse at the start of labour and between cx and OFP the babies moved down beautifully and were safely born at home.
I'm always uncomfortable with surgeons recommending surgery. Often OFP helps transverse babies move quite perfectly. HTH. Bicycle shorts sound weird but they seem to work!
