1. Breech extraction

I'm currently 26 weeks pregnant with two boys.
Recently, during a routine visit, my doctor gave me
some homework. She asked me to research "breech
extraction" since Twin B isn't in proper position
(breech). I'm hoping Twin B will shift into position,
eventually. But, in the meantime, are there others who
might be considering this option or perhaps have had
experience with a breech extraction?

First, at 26 weeks, twin B may move around a lot. I'm
at 33 weeks and my Twin B seems to be finally settling
into a vertex position after doing flips all summer. I
thought that was good news. However, my OB said that
she actually prefers beech extraction (when Twin B is
essentially pulled out by his legs) since Twin B can
get stuck if turned the wrong way during a vertex
delivery, particularly if B is larger than A. But I
know that most younger OBs aren't trained to do beech
extraction anymore. I hope your doctor is asking you to
research for your benefit, not hers!
