31 weeks & breeched

My baby isn’t head down yet either. They still have lots of time to move into position. I think doctors only speak of c section if they aren’t head down by 36/37 weeks and even then there’s still a chance they can turn! Bounce on your ball if you have one as this can encourage them to go head down but I wouldn’t worry yet. Your next app baby could change! Xx

They won’t worry about it until 36/37 Weeks. You can always try to flip them yourself with the site called spinning babies. But they also flip back and forth for a while so don’t worry too much. They plan to flip mine themselves if she doesn’t do it herself by 37.

@Kas okay cause he was head down a few weeks ago & I was worried he wouldn’t turn back now. I just don’t want a c section at all , hopefully it changes around that time!

@Gabriella I've heard that you could try 1) sitting/bouncing on a yoga ball. The correct posture can encourage movement 2) put an ice pack or something on the top of your belly, where the head is...nobody likes that 😂 3) play music down by your pelvis, because apparently a lot of them will move closer to hear it. I'm not sure if any of these work, but it couldn't hurt to try 😁

My MIL was a labor and deliver nurse for 20+ years and told me if baby was breech to try the ironing board trick which usually works. You just put your feet/ knees up higher than the rest of your body so using a stool, the couch or your bed and leaning off of it with your elbows on the ground!

@Tiffany sounds confusing I’m going to look it up so I know what you mean! Lol

@Tiffany my MFM doc just told me a horror story about an ironing board and it breaking on a lady and told me just put my butt on the couch don’t use something that could break!

@Aimee yea that’s why I suggested using something sturdier than an ironing board haha plus I feel like that’s not something a lot of people have laying around their house’s anymore.

I wouldn’t bounce on the ball you need to do figure 8 movements and back and forth movement from what I’ve been told in my previous pregnancies. They can also do a technique that turns baby. You shouldn’t have to worry about it rn you definitely have some time.

I’m close to 34 weeks and my baby isn’t head down, I’m having a c section (not due to this) so I don’t think his position matters. However, there’s still plenty of time for your baby to get head down before you give birth

@Audrey oh okay I was going to say if it’s for that reason your having a c section I’d start panicking 😂😭 I know I’m hoping it turns out different later, he wasn’t head down in beginning of my pregnancy earlier either but that might be diff cause he switched later on
