A 24-year-old woman, who has previously had a normal vaginal delivery of a 3900g male infant at term, is found to have a breech presentation at 37 weeks gestation in her second pregnancy. Ultrasound examination has shown the fetus has extended legs. She is keen to deliver this baby vaginally if possible. Which one of the following would be the most appropriate next step in management?
(A) Caesarean section now
(B) Caesarean section at term
(C) X-ray pelvimetry
(D) Induction of labour at term
(E) Await spontaneous onset of labour
