    HotI what sort of changing positions are you referring to? My bub this time went from head down to breech at 32weeks then turned by my 36 week appointment and the ended up being born posterior (natural drug free) at 40+5 weeks.

    My LO is alternating between transverse (sideways) to head down, but there seems to be a lot of room for bub to move all over the place (I am at 38.5 weeks). I guess i'm looking for stories when bub hasn't decided what position they want to be in right up to birth. When i tried to search, it only came up with c section stories.

    Have you talked to your midwife about it? It may be helpful to be on all 4s when your birthing time begins. Or doing inverse positions.

    This sounds esoteric, but I'm getting the feeling bub's ambivalence about position is related to your ambivalence about birth - maybe some unresolved fears. It may help you to write them down, go for a walk, talk to bub, then come back and burn them, letting them go.

    Bub will end up in the right position for him/her when it comes time to be born.
