This study tests a mindfulness-based program to improve mother–baby bonding by supporting mood, anxiety, and stress during and after pregnancy. It may help if you’re currently having higher-than-average depression, anxiety, or stress symptoms.
This study tests whether watching a short educational video before a procedure to turn a breech baby helps reduce anxiety. You may be eligible if you are between 36 and 38 weeks pregnant with a single baby and are about to have this turning procedure.
This trial studies a method to try to turn a breech baby (feet-first) from outside the belly using a specific “turning” approach. If you qualify, it may help increase the chance of having the baby in a safer position for birth.
This trial studies a special ultrasound measurement called the 'breech progression angle' to see if it can predict whether a doctor can safely turn a breech baby into a head-down position using gentle pressure on the belly (external cephalic version).
This trial compares two ways to help turn a breech baby to a head-down position: one uses a light sleep medicine (propofol), the other uses numbing medicine in the spine (bupivacaine). The goal is to make the turning attempt more comfortable and successful.
This study tests whether ultrasound measurements can predict if doctors can successfully turn a breech baby from the outside (a procedure called external cephalic version). It may help women who want to avoid a C-section.
