Thank you to everyone for your useful suggestions...

I spoke to my friend's mother on Friday night, and the external version was
a success! (like watching a lumpy pillow being reorganised - according to
the baby's father), so hopefully an uncomplicated vaginal delivery will
follow in the next fortnight or so.

Thanks again for taking the time to assist.

Dear Jo - I suggest you refer to Andrea Robertson's excellent book
"Preparing for Birth - Mothers" which has a good section on maternal
positioning to assist turning a breech. It also covers moxibustion briefly.
Maggie Banks book "Breech Birth - Woman wise" is a wonderful resource for
the truth about facilitating breech birth.  ECV done under safe conditions
with an experienced practitioner has a good success rate - request a repeat
ECV after maternal positioning exercises if the first ECV is unsuccessful.
I've had some experience with these methods with two clients recently.
Contact me for more into if you require it. I wish your friend well.  Kind
regards, Lois  Wattis.

Dear List,

I have another question - friend still pregnant this time!

A friend is due to give birth in Wodonga, and she is approximately 36 weeks.
Her baby is breech (unless attempts to turn - external version - succeeded
yesterday) and she is facing a C-section unless baby turns/is turned, and I
wondered if anyone on the list knew of anyone in the area who may be able to
assist in turning baby using other therapies/techniques should her baby
still be breech after this?
