We are blessed to have the Breech Birth Team in Reading, PA and the DC Breech Birth Team. They break down the perinatal mortality risks of cephalic/head down (1/1000), breech (2/1000) and c-section (0.5/1000) deliveries of breech baby as well as the long term risks of cesarean--> the part of the conversation most doctors leave out.
