There was a lot of movement in Fisher’s abdomen before Dr. Cummings performed a successful External Cephalic Version (ECV) to turn the breech baby at 38 weeks.

The couple shared the video of the procedure on their official Facebook page, but it has since been removed, as per Mirror.

Fisher initially wrote in the post, “Prior to the procedure, we attempted a number of other methods to turn the baby naturally. Ultimately, our goal is to avoid a cesarean section by any means possible.”

After the procedure was complete, Dr. Cummings asked Fisher to lay her head down and gave her a thumbs up.

Speaking about the experience, she told Mirror online, “I would describe it as unpleasant. There was a lot of pressure but it was only painful where I was sore. The discomfort was quickly forgotten knowing the baby was safe and the procedure was successful.”

According to Unilad, four weeks following the serious procedure, Fisher gave birth to a beautiful baby, later named Ashton Nathaniel.

Pregnancy is one of the most crucial and delicate times in a parents’ lives. Especially for mothers, there are so many considerations that they must pay heed to.
