I've also been stressing about getting this baby in to the "perfect" position for birth, and worrying that if he's not, I'll have a terrible time, etc. If I felt him kick on the left, meaning his back was on my right, it would send a wave of butterflies through my stomach, thinking "oh no, he's going to be posterior...!" I'm not going to look at Spinning Babies any more. I'm going to keep sleeping on my left side and hope for the best. Baby is head down, nice and low and has room to move, so I'll just enjoy the kicks, wherever they happen, and let it be. Try to stay out of the way, and be happy.
Just in response to this. For my first pregnancy, I laid on my left side from about 20 weeks, I did EVERYTHING right. The consequence for me was that I ended up with a screwed up back and in lots of pain because I didn't listen to my body I listened to all the ofp experts. Baby was still lop when I went into labour. With my second I just did what made me comfortable. My back was great and I was happy. I trusted myself in all things and had a really relaxed pregnancy. I did go into labour with an op baby. Labour was 12 hrs and baby turned during labour and was born oa. If you want more support about that decision, read Rachel reeds, "in defense of the op baby" on her midwifethinking site. It is a good perspective. Sounds like you are already in a better heads space at the moment. So I will just say I think you are on the right track.
