I also have the problem with my baby's heartbeat skipping. I went to see a cardiologist about 2 weeks ago(the problem appeared about 5 weeks ago) and they checked his heart and everything by ultrasound/echocardiogram. I was SOOOOOOO scared so I know how you feel. It turned out that there was nothing wrong with his heart. Actually, a baby who's heart skips beats in uturo is a very common occurance. When I went back to the cardiologist last week, the heartbeat had already corrected itself. This usually happens before birth. I am 38 weeks, and the dcotor said the heartbeat corrected because he is probaly about ready to come. So, I'm sure that the baby's heartbeat will be corrected as she nears her due date. I hope everything is okay with her, please keep us updated. Good luck to your daughter.
PS. The baby still has room to flip in the uterus, so her being breech right now is not that big of a deal.
