Hypnobabies has a MP3 for that!

Then click on the Turn Your Breech Baby, Yes You Can! link.
Hypnosis is excellent for turning a breech, since the baby is registered by the inner mind as part of the mother!
In this deep hypnosis Turn Your Breech Baby audio track, you are allowed to relax the muscles and any constriction all around your baby and use effective hypnotic suggestions for turning baby to the vertex, (head down) position, if that is the safest way for baby to be positioned. Baby will let you know!
Excellent for midwives to keep for their home birth and birth center mothers, as well as *anyone* whose baby has turned to Breech presentation in late pregnancy or labor.
For the best benefits, you can choose to listen to your Turn Your Breech Baby audio track every day until your baby turns head down. The subconscious mind is very powerful and will create more room for baby to turn while listening to your Breech Turning track, and make muscles much more relaxed as well as direct your baby to turn head down and facing your back.
You may want to look into other natural breech turning techniques as well, to augment your Hypnobabies MP3 track. (Slant board, music, the Webster Technique, acupuncture, etc.)
Testimonial!
One of our Hypno-Moms writes: “Just thought I’d share a happy story with you – my sweet babe has been lying transverse in my belly for months, and the other day I started thinking I needed to get her turned.
I’m only 27 weeks pregnant but I have a uterine septum which can increase the changes of a malpositioned baby and make it difficult to turn them later in pregnancy when space gets tight.
Plus I was feeling a bit uncomfortable having her wrapped around my sides so much. My belly actually looked funny because it was so wide.
I decided to listen to the Turn Your Breech Baby CD. I laid down while my older son was napping, listened to it, and once it was over felt moved to do one short (5 second or so) downward dog stretch and then a few pelvic tilts.
Then I got up, looked at my belly, and it was a COMPLETELY different shape – much more round and less wide. I also had more pressure lower in my pelvis and could feel immediately that she had moved.
She’s now kicking in the center of my body rather than around at my sides. I had a prenatal visit on Saturday and my midwife confirmed that baby is now head-down, with her bottom against my bellybutton, head facing my back.
Amazing results after only listening to the Breech track once! :) Hurray and thank you SO much to Kerry and the Hypnobabies team for creating this program. I am SO thankful!

More ideas
I really like this resource for additional ideas to use for encouraging baby to turn.
I also had great success with the Turn Your Breech Baby track. I live in Japan, and at 30 weeks the doctor was already talking about needing to perform an external cephalic version at 34 weeks if the baby didn’t turn soon. I didn’t want to have that procedure, and I definitely didn’t want to hear any more about c- sections from the doctor. I was a breech baby, and my mother had had to have an unexpected c-section when I was born.
So, I bought the mp3 of the Turn Your Breech Baby track and listened to it 2 times before bed. After listening the 2nd time, I awoke in the middle of the night with the baby moving a lot more than usual, and more powerfully than usual. I wondered if the baby might have turned already, but I wasn’t sure! A few days later I went to see my midwives, and they confirmed that the baby had turned, and was in the head-down position! I was so relieved and empowered by the whole experience. Since that time, my baby has remained head-down, and I am on track to have a natural child birth at a midwife-run birthing center in Tokyo. Thank you, Hypnobabies!
